Replacement during POWER ON
The fan/battery module should preferably be replaced in the POWER OFF state.
In principle, replacement during POWER ON is possible, but the following aspects must be
taken into consideration:
● If the fan/battery module is disconnected and heat dissipation is required because of the

● During the replacement, the missing fan and battery is signaled via the
The causes of an unintentional failure can be, for example:
● No PeripheralFaultTask has been configured; if no PeripheralFaultTask is configured, the
● A delayed replacement can result in a RESET state
● Cables may be unintentionally disconnected during the replacement

The electrical connection between the double fan/battery module and the Control Unit is
made automatically.
Note
The fan/battery module should preferably be replaced in the POWER OFF state.
The battery should be replaced at least once every 3 years, at the latest when the
prewarning level is reached (see
Installation Manual).
Later replacement of the battery can result in a backup failure of the RTC (real-time clock)
and therefore loss of the date and time!
