We had a problem with
the Dataman would not turn on.
We would have to Turn
it on then press the Reset Button, but this would only stay on for about a
minute. Then Black out
S4's which have been
left unused, and uncharged for a long period of time v\ have flat batteries
.The charging circuit works under microprocessor control, therefore your unit
needs to power up for the charger to actually charge the batteries. Getting
such an S4 to power up can be difficult, but is usually possible.
It is no use leaving
the charger plugged in. Doing this will not charge the battery.
• The only way to start
54 is to manually override the microprocessor controlled charging system.
• If your S4's serial
number is less than 12000 or greater than 18800, then the following procedure
to start your S4:
Plug in the S4 charger,
and leave the S4 switched off. Press and hold in the reset button (this is an
indented button just above the on/off switch on your (S4) for at least 30
seconds. Release the reset button, and switch on. S4 should now power up.
Press ENTER if asked
START LIBRARY?
Press INFO, and the
display will inform you of battery voltage, temperature, and whether or not the
charger is connected and switched on/off.
If necessary force your
unit to charge the battery by pressing the right-hand cursor keep until the
display reads that the charger is switched ON.
Once this has been
established then turn the S4 off by the switch (not by the power supply).
Display will now inform you that S4 will switch off when charging is complete
then when the display goes blank, your unit is fully
charged.
If your S4s serial
number is between 12000 and 18800, then you may need to hold in the reset
button, and then plug in the charger.
Then continue t hold
the reset button for 30 seconds. If this fails please contact Dataman advice.
Call us on +44 0 1300
320719 and ask for technical support.
NOTE! The S4 unit
itself does not regulate the charging current it draws; it relies on the
charger to do this.
The rating for the S4
charger is as follows:
Input: 240 VAC- 60 Hz Output: 12 VAC~ 650mA
