9. MAINTENANCE
9.1 Replacing the Backup Battery
The PowerArt™ operates from the regular electrical supply
of the protected site, but incorporates an internal 9-Volt
battery that keeps it working during power failures. It is
extremely important to maintain this battery in good
condition, namely to replace it immediately upon getting
the following trouble message when reviewing system
troubles (see Para. 5.2B):
CPU LOW BATTERY
Replacing the battery is a relatively simple process, so you
do not have to bother your installer. Proceed as follows:
A . Prepare 6 AA-size alkaline battery cells (option 1) or 6
size AA, 650 mA/h Nickel-Cadmium cells (option 2) -
purchased in any hardware or electrical supply store.
B . Make sure that the keypad cover is open.
C . Insert a wide bladed screwdriver into the slot shown in
Figure 11, and turn the handle slightly to force the right
edge of the left-hand cover up. This should dislodge
the two catches and free the right edge of the cover.
Warning! Do not try to dislodge the left side of the
cover first! This will break the angled legs at the left.
Figure 11. Prying the Cover Loose
D . Swing the cover up as shown in Figure 12, then pull
free the angled legs at the left and put the cover away.
The inner lid will now be in full view (see Figure 13).

Figure 13. Battery Compartment Lid
E. Remove the screw that secures the battery compartment
lid (Fig. 13), swing the lid up and pull it away. You have
thus gained access to the battery holder (see Fig. 13).
ATTENTION! Removal of the lid will start a “tamper”
alarm - the trouble indicator will light and both
“memory” and “trouble” will flash in the display
window. If you interrogate the system at this stage by
clicking the <OK> button, “CPU TAMPER ALARM”
and “CPU TAMPER OPEN” will be displayed, in
addition to “CPU LOW BATTERY”.
Figure 14. Battery Compartment and Battery Holder
F . Pull the battery holder out and replace all 6 battery cells -
3 at the top and 3 at the bottom. Make sure that the flat
(negative) end of each cell is pressed against a circular
spring and the capped (positive) end of each cell is
pressed against a flat contact.
CAUTION! If you replace rechargeable cells
with alkaline (dry) cells or vice versa, mount
the battery-type selector in the correct
position (CHRG for rechargeable cells and
DRY for alkaline cells - see Figure 15).
