service/maintenance
CAUTION:
■
IF THE RADICAL HAS NOT BEEN CHARGED FOR 1 MONTH OR MORE, THEN
RECHARGE THE BATTERY PRIOR TO USE.
The following tables outline the estimated run times of the battery powered Radical Pulse
Oximeter. The time estimates are based on a Radical with fully charged batteries.The time
estimates are also based on a Radical with and without backlight lit, and the power save
feature enabled and disabled.
The Radical Pulse Oximeter is always configured to include the Handheld battery. It may
optionally be configured to include the Docking Station battery. Please determine the
configuration of your system before referencing the following tables.
Configuration #1:
Radical configured to only include the Handheld battery (standard configuration); the
Docking Station battery is excluded.
NOTE: For this configuration, it is advisable to operate only the Radical Handheld unit when
running on battery power. Although it is possible to operate the entire Standalone unit (the
Handheld attached to the Docking Station, with the Handheld battery powering the Docking
Station as well) on battery power, the capacity of the Handheld battery pack is insufficient
to support this mode for long periods of time. The Power Save setting in the General menu
determines whether the Docking Station is powered or not during battery operation. See
Section 4, General, for a detailed description on proper use of the Power Save setting.
RADICAL CONFIGURATION OPERATION MODE RUN-TIME
HANDHELD ONLY Power Save “yes” 3 to 4 hrs

STANDALONE Power Save “no” 1 hr

Configuration #2:
