Batteries

Operating Principles  
This chapter is valid for RX1220, RX1250 and GHT56.  
)
)
Primary use/charging  
The battery must be charged prior to using it for the first time because it is deliv-  
ered with an energy content as low as possible.  
For new batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long time (> three  
months), it is effectual to make only one charge/discharge cycle.  
For Li-Ion batteries, a single discharging and charging cycle is sufficient. We  
recommend carrying out the process when the battery capacity indicated on the  
charger or on a Leica Geosystems product deviates significantly from the actual  
battery capacity available.  
The permissible temperature range for charging is between 0°C to +40°C/ +32°F  
to +104°F. For optimal charging we recommend charging the batteries at a low  
ambient temperature of +10°C to +20°C/+50°F to +68°F if possible.  
It is normal for the battery to become warm during charging. Using the chargers  
recommended by Leica Geosystems, it is not possible to charge the battery if  
the temperature is too high.

Operation/Discharging  
The batteries can be operated from -20°C to +55°C/-4°F to +131°F.  
Low operating temperatures reduce the capacity that can be drawn; very high  
operating temperatures reduce the service life of the battery.

Hazards of Use  
Warning  
The absence of instruction, or the inadequate imparting of instruction, can lead to  
ƽ
incorrect or adverse use, and can give rise to accidents with far-reaching human,  
material, financial and environmental consequences.  
Precautions:  
All users must follow the safety directions given by the manufacturer and the direc-  
tions of the person responsible for the product.  
Danger  
Because of the risk of electrocution, it is very dangerous to use poles and extensions  
in the vicinity of electrical installations such as power cables or electrical railways.  
Precautions:  
ƽ
Keep at a safe distance from electrical installations. If it is essential to work in this  
environment, first contact the safety authorities responsible for the electrical instal-  
lations and follow their instructions.

Warning  
By surveying during a thunderstorm you are at risk from lightning.  
Precautions:  
ƽ
Do not carry out field surveys during thunderstorms.  
Warning  
During dynamic applications, for example stakeout procedures there is a danger of  
accidents occurring if the user does not pay attention to the environmental conditions  
around, for example obstacles, excavations or traffic.  
Precautions:  
ƽ
The person responsible for the product must make all users fully aware of the  
existing dangers.

Electromagnetic Compatibility EMC  
Description  
The term Electromagnetic Compatability is taken to mean the capability of the  
product to function smoothly in an environment where electromagnetic radiation and  
electrostatic discharges are present, and without causing electromagnetic distur-  
bances to other equipment.  
Warning  
Caution  
Electromagnetic radiation can cause disturbances in other equipment.  
ƽ
ƽ
Although the product meets the strict regulations and standards which are in force  
in this respect, Leica Geosystems cannot completely exclude the possibility that  
other equipment may be disturbed.  
There is a risk that disturbances may be caused in other equipment if the product is  
used in conjunction with accessories from other manufacturers, for example field  
computers, personal computers, two-way radios, non-standard cables or external  
batteries.  
Precautions:  
Use only the equipment and accessories recommended by Leica Geosystems.  
When combined with the product, they meet the strict requirements stipulated by the  
guidelines and standards. When using computers and two-way radio, pay attention  
to the information about electromagnetic compatibility provided by the manufacturer.

Caution  
Disturbances caused by electromagnetic radiation can result in erroneous measure-  
ments.  
ƽ
Although the product meets the strict regulations and standards which are in force  
in this respect, Leica Geosystems cannot completely exclude the possibility that the  
product may be disturbed by very intense electromagnetic radiation, for example,  
near radio transmitters, two-way radios or diesel generators.  
Precautions:  
Check the plausibility of results obtained under these conditions.  
Warning  
If the product is operated with connecting cables attached at only one of their two  
ends, for example external supply cables, interface cables, the permitted level of  
electromagnetic radiation may be exceeded and the correct functioning of other  
products may be impaired.  
ƽ
Precautions:  
While the product is in use, connecting cables, for example product to external  
battery, product to computer, must be connected at both ends.

Applicablility  
The grayed paragraph below is only applicable for RX1210 products without internal  
radio.  
Warning  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B  
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules.  
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interfer-  
ence in a residential installation.  
ƽ
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not  
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interfer-  
ence to radio communication. However, there is no guarantee that interference will
