IMPORTANT The InterActive 2000 HyTRON battery represents the latest in video battery technology. Nickel Metal Hydrid e (NiMH) is similar to NiCad batteries in most characteristics. However, NiMH has more sen sitive charging and discharging parameters and requires a longer charge time for optimum performance.
INTRODUCTION The development of the new InterA ctive 2000 HyTRON battery system has been made possible by recent advancements in a cell technology originally designed for the mobile computing indus try . These nickel metal hydride cells provide the highest energy density cell available.
FEATURES 1. Microprocessor Fuel Compu ter - Accurately monitors the energy put into and taken out of the battery. This data is processed with sophisticated programs that take into account battery age, self discharge, charge/discharge rate , cell imbalance and previously experienced charge/discharge cycles.
6. Impac ® Case design - The computer designed high impact case eliminates conventional stress points. This feature protects the cells from impact that would damage or destroy conventional batteries. 7. Gold Mount ® Interface - The solid metal mounting studs assure a smooth, precise mounting for the life of the battery.
HIGH VOLTAGE DESIGN Virtually all cameras/camcorders will indicate a low voltage warning or cease to operate at about 11 volts. Unfortunately, a 12 volt battery must be discharged to 10 volts for full discharge.
CHARGING WITH LOGIC SERIES INTERACTIVE CHARGERS Charge this battery fully before using. Allow the battery to reach a steady green (LifeSaver ® ) mode before using. Charging is automatic on all Logic Series InterActive chargers. The flashing red and green lights indicate the charger and battery are establishing communications.
OVER-DISCHARGED BATTERIES Warning: The Hy TRON battery has specialized circuits which ty pically will not allow a battery to overdischarge during extended storage (more than 90 days). However , if the battery is left on a load, such as a light, and allowed to discharge to 0 volts, the battery can be irreversibly damaged.
The HyTRON features an all NEW “RealTime” LCD display providing on-the-fly remaining run time estimates in 15 minute increments as well as simultaneously providing remaining capacity information using the traditional “Fuel Gauge” approach. No special adapters or set up is required.
-The large numbers 1, 2 or 3 indicate remaining hours under current load (only one number will display at any one time) -The pie chart numbers (15, 30, 45, or 60) indicate remaining minutes under current load.
If the SIDE BARS (only) flash AND other icons are lit and not flashing, this indicates the battery has requested to be fully charged and discharged in order to update its “learned capacity”. This “learning” should ty pically occur during normal equipment operation.
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE The HyTRON battery incorporates unique battery management features. Together with Anton/Bauer diagnostic accessories, an effective preventative maintenance program can easily be created to optimize the return on battery investment and gr eatly simplify battery management operations.
GUIDELINES FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE AND MAXIMUM LIFE 1. Keep batteries cool or at room temperatures whenever possible. Sustained elevated temperatures are the primary reason for premature failure of NiMH batteries: a. Charging - Charge batteries at room temperature.
5. Routine use of a battery at discharge rates greater than the battery rating (e.g. >50w for Hy tron 50) can reduce overall service life. Always select the proper size battery for y our application. 6. Discharging the battery for di agnostic purposes should only be performed on an occasional basis (once every 6-8 weeks at most).
SERVICE In the unlikely event a Hy TRON battery fails to deliver acceptable performance, it must be returned to the Anton/Baue r Customer Support Department, the only facility qualified and equipped to servi ce the InterActive 2000 HyTRON batteries and calibrate the electronic components and sensors.

Un punto importante, dopo l’acquisto del dispositivo (o anche prima di acquisto) è quello di leggere il manuale. Dobbiamo farlo per diversi motivi semplici:
Se non hai ancora comprato il Anton/Bauer HyTRON 140 è un buon momento per familiarizzare con i dati di base del prodotto. Prime consultare le pagine iniziali del manuale d’uso, che si trova al di sopra. Dovresti trovare lì i dati tecnici più importanti del Anton/Bauer HyTRON 140 - in questo modo è possibile verificare se l’apparecchio soddisfa le tue esigenze. Esplorando le pagine segenti del manuali d’uso Anton/Bauer HyTRON 140 imparerai tutte le caratteristiche del prodotto e le informazioni sul suo funzionamento. Le informazioni sul Anton/Bauer HyTRON 140 ti aiuteranno sicuramente a prendere una decisione relativa all’acquisto.
In una situazione in cui hai già il Anton/Bauer HyTRON 140, ma non hai ancora letto il manuale d’uso, dovresti farlo per le ragioni sopra descritte. Saprai quindi se hai correttamente usato le funzioni disponibili, e se hai commesso errori che possono ridurre la durata di vita del Anton/Bauer HyTRON 140.
Tuttavia, uno dei ruoli più importanti per l’utente svolti dal manuale d’uso è quello di aiutare a risolvere i problemi con il Anton/Bauer HyTRON 140. Quasi sempre, ci troverai Troubleshooting, cioè i guasti più frequenti e malfunzionamenti del dispositivo Anton/Bauer HyTRON 140 insieme con le istruzioni su come risolverli. Anche se non si riesci a risolvere il problema, il manuale d’uso ti mostrerà il percorso di ulteriori procedimenti – il contatto con il centro servizio clienti o il servizio più vicino.
