Important!
Before performing any maintenance work on or authorized modification to your Meinberg system, we
recommend making a backup of any stored configuration data (e.g., to a USB flash drive from the Web
Interface).
5.4.1 Replacing the Battery
Your device’s receiver module is fitted with a lithium battery (type CR2032).
This battery has a life of at least ten years. However, if the device develops the following unexpected be-
haviors, the voltage of the battery may have dropped below 3 V, and the battery needs to be replaced as a
result:
•The reference clock has the wrong date or wrong date when the system is started.
•The reference clock repeatedly starts in Cold Boot mode (i.e., upon starting, the system has no ephemeris
data saved whatsoever, resulting in the synchronization process taking a very long time due to the need
to rediscover all of the visible satellites).
•Some configuration options relating to the reference clock are lost every time the system is restarted.
In this case you should not replace the battery on your own. Please contact the Meinberg Technical Support
team, you will provide you with precise guidance on how to perform the replacement.

5 Important Product Information
5.5 Prevention of ESD Damage
An ESDS device (electrostatic discharge-sensitive device) is any device at risk of dam-
age or malfunction due to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and thus requires special mea-
sures to prevent such damage or malfunction. Systems and modules with ESDS devices
usually bear this symbol.
Precautionary measures should be taken to protect ESDS components from damage and malfunction.
•Before removing or installing ESDS components, ground your body first (for example, by touching a
grounded object) before touching ESDS modules.
•Ensure that you wear a grounding strap on your wrist when handling such ESDS components. These
straps must in turn be attached to an uncoated, non-conductive metal part of the system.
•Use only tools and equipment that are free of static electricity.
•Only touch or hold ESDS components by the edges. Never touch any pins or conductors on the ESDS
components.
•When removing or installing ESDS components, avoid coming into contact with persons who are not
grounded. Such contact may compromise your connection with the grounding conductor and thus also
compromise the ESDS component’s protection from any static charges you may be carrying.
•Always store ESDS components in ESD-proof ("antistatic") bags. These bags must not be damaged in
any way. ESD-proof bags that are crumpled or have holes cannot provide effective protection against
electrostatic discharges. ESD-proof bags must have a sufficient electrical resistance and must not be
made of conductive metals if the ESDS components has a lithium battery fitted on it.
