5.2.1 REPLACING THE INTERNAL BATTERY
It is possible to check the batte
r
y’s cha
r
ge th
r
ough
r
egiste
r
"29". A fully cha
r
ged
batte
r
y typically has a powe
r
above 3.6 V. As you use the RHT
-
Ai
r
, the powe
r
of the batte
r
y will g
r
adually dec
r
ease.
It is
r
ecommended to pe
r
iodically check the value of the "29"
r
egiste
r
. When
it
r
eaches values below 3.3 V, a batte
r
y change must be scheduled
(
this
r
egiste
r
may p
r
esent a measu
r
ement e
rr
o
r
of up to 5 %
)
.
No
t
e : Even when the powe
r
is below 100 %, the device will ope

NOTE 6 : The update time, as well as the ope

ating powe
r
, have a significant
impact on the batte

r
ed fo

NOTE 7 : Remove the batte

inse

t the insulation film when the device is
not in use. Leaving the powe

REGISTER 29 – BATTERY POWER
It has the value of measu

unit. The decimal point is fixed in th

point and must be p
r
edicted by the

r
e. Reading the batte
r
y
voltage may show an e
rr
o
r
of up to 5 %.
Typically, a batte
r
y with 100 % of its load has voltage above 3.6V.
Depending on the use of RHT
-
Ai
r
, the batte
r
y will g
r
adually dec

ease
voltage. It is
r
ecommended to pe
r
iodically check the value of this

egiste
r
so
that, when it
r
eaches values below 3.3 V, a batte
r

Checking the batte

onic module, the device needs some ca
r
e in handling:
• When opening it fo
r
fixation, you should keep away f
r
om the elect
r
onic
ci
r
cuit due to the
r
isk of damages caused by static elect
r
icity.
• The wi
