CHANGING THE M10 BATTERY

The M10 operates from a 6V DC Supply derived either from its internal battery or from the Mains supply, using an AC adaptor The battery is installed as shown in Figure 3.

When changing the battery, first switch off all peripherals connected to the M10. Do NOT turn off the memory power ON/OFr switch as this causes the RAM contents to be lost.

When the cells start to run low, the 'Battery Low' indicator lamp on the front panel of the M10 will light up.

If the Ml0 is switched off, power to the memory is maintained by a Ni-Cd rechargeable battery. The RAM contents are protected for between 8 and 3O days depending on the amount of memory installed.

To preserve the battery the M10 has automatic switch-off after 10 minutes if no Keys are pressed.

In normal operation, the M10 is switched on and off using the power ON/OFF switch. Always make sure that all peripherals are turned off before switching the M10 off.
