4.8 Procedure of battery exchange
1) The power supply of FX2N-20GM is turned off.
2) Remove side cover from the FX2N-20GM.
3) Remove battery from holder-disconnect and replace. (This must be carried out within 30 sec if the cur-
rent data held in the FX2N-20GM’s RAM is to be saved.)
4) Refit battery and cover.
