Low Battery Conditions in Wireless Sensors
NOTE: A low battery message means that battery replacement in the indicated sensor(s) is due within 30
days. In the meantime, a sensor with a low battery is still operational.
When replacing batteries, use only those recommended by your installer.
Alkaline batteries provide a minimum of 1 year of operation, and in most units and applications, provide 2–4
years of service. 3-volt lithium batteries may provide from 4-7 years of operation. Actual battery life will
depend on the environment in which the sensor is used, the number of signals that the transmitter in the
sensor has had to send, and the specific type of sensor. Factors such as humidity, high or low temperatures,
and large swings in temperature may all lead to the reduction of actual battery life in an installation.
Changing the LYNX Touch Series System Battery
NOTE: The battery pack (P/N LYNXRCHKIT-SC or LYNXRCHKIT-SHA) should be changed every four
years and must be replaced by a qualified service technician.
