78-9000-0192-2 Rev D 11 G. Maximum Transmitter Output An external 12V DC source is required for 12-Watt Output (Max setting) using a 12-watt transmitter. Connecting the rechargeable battery (2200RB) to the External Jack [T-7] will provide this external source, or the cigarette lighter adapter cable (included with high-powered units) can be used to connect the DC power from a vehicle’s battery source to the transmitter’s External Jack [T-7]. Press Output [T-5] twice for maximum output power mode. The indicator flag (in [T-4]) will flash when the transmitter is in maximum output mode. Note: The external DC source does not charge the internal batteries. ! WARNING To reduce the risk associated with hazardous voltage: • Potential for electric shock exists when handling connection cables while\ the transmitter is ON. Make all connections prior to powering on the unit. Turn transmitter OFF before handling connection cables. • Voltage greater than 240 volts will damage equipment and could cause personal injury or death. Make all connections before turning on the transmitter. Follow standard procedures for reducing the voltage. • Do not change or modify this product in any way. H. Rechargeable Battery Information The maintenance-free sealed lead (Pb)-acid 3M™ Dynatel™ Rechargeable Battery 2200RB can be used as an auxiliary battery in 3M™ Dynatel™ 2500 Series 12 Watt Transmitters. It plugs into the External Jack [T-7] and provides power for the transmitter. When the rechargeable battery is plugged in, normal output, high output, and maximum output are available. When the rechargeable battery is connected to the transmitter, the alkaline batteries are bypassed. The rechargeable battery is a lead acid battery rated at 5.4 amp-hours and is equipped with a user replaceable fuse (5A/32V). Note: The internal batteries must be at least 5.4 volts. Do not remove the alkaline batteries from the transmitter when using the rechargeable battery. Rechargeable battery, or cigarette lighter adapter cable, is required for maximum output level. Rechargeable battery is shown installed in the well of the transmitter case.
