Powering The Weather Monitor; Installing The Backup Battery - Maxon TRUTALK WX-80 SAME Instrucciones De Uso

VI. POWERING THE WEATHER MONITOR
Your WX-80 weather monitor uses standard 12V DC
power for normal operation and one 9V battery (not
supplied) for backup power when standard power fails
or is temporarily disconnected. For the best performance
and longest life during power failure, we recommend
an alkaline battery. A fresh backup battery will power
the weather monitor for up to 1 hour with the weather
broadcast turned on or up to 8 hours in alert standby
mode. However, we recommend you always connect
the weather monitor to AC power for normal use.
Remember, when the unit is powered OFF, no alert
signal will be received, even with a backup battery
installed! The unit must be "ON" to receive alerts and
broadcasts.

Installing the Backup Battery

1. Place the monitor's power on / off switch into the
"OFF" position by sliding it to the right.
2. Press the tab on the battery compartment cover,
lift the cover up and set it aside.
3. Using a fresh 9V alkaline battery, "snap" the terminal
connector onto the battery, and place the battery
into the compartment, taking care not to crimp
or damage the wiring.
4. Replace the cover.
5. Power ON the WX-80 by sliding the power switch
to the left ("ON" position).
