Waking up the battery with a Cadex SMart Two+ charger
Waking up the battery with a patient monitor
2000966-542D
Preventive maintenance: Battery maintenance
NOTE
A deep discharged battery will require you to repeat the following
steps more than once before the battery will "wake up."
1. Insert the battery into the battery charger and wait for the RUN
LED light to illuminate (approximately three minutes).
2. If the RUN LED light does NOT illuminate, complete the following
steps:
a. Remove the battery from the battery charger.
b. Re-insert the battery into the battery charger and let the battery
trickle charge for two to three minutes while the FAIL LED
flashes. (If the RUN LED light lights, ignore it.)
c. Watch the battery charger LEDs and immediately remove the
battery from the battery charger when the FAIL LED stops
flashing and remains illuminated, or when both the RUN and
CONDITION LEDs flash.
d. Wait for one to two seconds, then re-insert the battery into the
battery charger. The RUN and CONDITION LEDs will flash for
five to ten seconds while the charger initializes the battery. If the
FAIL LED lights, remove the battery and re-insert it into the
battery charger.
e. Watch the battery charger LEDs. The RUN LED should stop
flashing and remain illuminated for approximately one minute
later the CONDITION LED should stop flashing. At this time,
the battery is awake and being charged.
NOTE
Non-recommended (incompatible) batteries will not wake up the
Dash patient monitor.
1. Connect the patient monitor to an AC power source.
2. Activate the Boot Loader program.

ZERO ALL (FUNCTION).
