This device contains electrical voltages and extremely sensitive components. The
manufacturer, or a service partner authorised by the manufacturer, should be consulted if
you plan to make any modifications. For this type of work, the device must be switched off
at the mains and the power lead must be disconnected. Suitable measures for avoiding
electrostatic discharge towards parts of the components when touching the equipment
must be taken. If the device is opened by an unauthorised person, hazards for the user
might arise and any warranty claim will cease.

•All users must read this manual and have access to it at all times.
•Installation, commissioning and operation may only be carried out by trained and
qualified staff.
•The security instructions and the manual itself must be observed by all persons
who work with this device.
•At the location of use the valid guidelines and regulations for accident prevention
must be observed.
•The manual contains the most important instructions on how to use this device in
a safe way.
•Appropriate storage, proper transport, installation and commissioning, as well as
careful operation are prerequisites for ensuring safe and proper operation of the
device.

2.4 HANDLING AND PROPER DISPOSAL OF LITHIUM BATTERIES
This device contains a lithium battery to supply the systemclock until there is no power
supply connected. Depending on exposure, the battery has a lifetime of 3-5 years.
Note:
High thermal exposure will age the battery faster.
Warning:
By using the wrong types of batteries, there is acute danger of explosion.
Warning:
Lithium batteries should not be exposed to fire, soldered, recharged, opened, short-
circuited, reversed or heated above 100 °C and they should be disposed of properly as
well as protected against sunlight, moisture and condensation.
The lithium battery can only be replaced by the same type or a type recommended by the
manufacturer.
The used lithium battery should be disposed of in accordance with local legal regulations.

5INTERFACES
5.1 20V DC POWER SUPPLY
TECHNICAL DATA OF THE POWER ADAPTER
•Power consumption: Max. 70 Watts
•Input voltage: 100…240 V AC
•Mains frequency: 50…60Hz
•Current consumption: 3.5A (230V AC)
•Max. switch-on current: < 60A (230V AC)
Note:
The typical power consumption of this device is indicated in the "Technical details"
chapter.
5.2 14.4V DC BATTERY OPERATING MODE
The device is equipped with two batteries slots, by means of which the device can be
supplied with power, alternatively. It is provided with a hot swap function which allows you
to replace the batteries without rebooting.
The batteries are automatically charged in mains operation (20V DC).

B ATTERY STATUS REPLACEMENT
The TT13 batteries can be removed by using a mechanical ejector on the back of the
device.
The batteries status can be retrieved by pushing a button on the batteries. The batteries
display will light up for a few seconds and show the current batteries charge status on a
scale from 0 to 100. If the display lights red, this represents a weak battery. If the display
is green, it shows that the battery is fully charged. If the device is in operating mode, the
battery status can be retrieved by using the supplied Battery Information & Diagnostics
Tool.
Note:
The "Hardware specific software” chapter describes the Battery Information &
Diagnostics Tool, which can be used for retrieving the accumulator status while operating
the unit.
