9.9.4 Connect Battery
By default, the Universal Monitor checks the battery and sounds an alarm when the power fails, the
battery runs low or the battery needs to be checked. The battery’s main purpose is to provide enough
power to the modem to notify pagers of a power loss.
Using the following procedure to disconnect the battery will disable battery alarm features only. The
battery itself will continue to provide backup. If battery backup is not desired, the battery must be
unplugged from the circuit board. This can be done by removing the battery leads from the jumpers
(see 2.4.3 - Connecting the Battery Pack).
The default is to connect the battery. However, there may be times that you want to disconnect the
battery so that it does not provide backup.
Table 31 shows battery problems that will affect operation.
To connect or disconnect the battery:
• From the Setup System Info Menu, use the arrows
↑↓ to choose
Connect Battery, then press Enter ↵ .
• Use the arrows
↑↓ to choose Y (Yes - the battery is connected) or
N (No - the battery is not connected), then press Enter ↵.
NOTE
The battery will continue to power and provide full operation of the Universal Monitor with the
exception of powering the analog inputs (sensors). The battery will provide backup for a
minimum of 10 minutes.
