LabSat 4 Battery - Operation, Charging and Removal
Operation
LabSat 4 is shipped with a rechargeable, lithium-ion Smart battery pack (Inspired Energy NB2037HD34). It is UN38.3 (transportation) certified and CE, FCC and REACH/RoHS compliant.
The battery pack will power the LabSat 4 unit for at least 1 hour of operation. When LabSat 4 is powered externally, it will charge the internal battery pack (if fitted in the LabSat 4 unit), and seamlessly switch to battery operation when external power is removed.
If LabSat 4 is switched off while connected to an external supply, it will continue to charge the battery until it reaches full capacity. Charging in progress is indicated by the blue CHG LED under the power port on the rear panel. When the charging stops, the blue LED will turn off.
