Keep the RF carrier ON OFF button pressed while applying power The unit will sense the closed switch and select the 120 minute auto shutoff mode The LCD display will show 120 for a short period of time to indicate the longer shutoff period The 120 minute auto shutoff timeout must be selected each time this feature is desired simply powering the unit normally without pressing and holding either RF carrier button will power up the unit using the normal 4 minute auto shutoff timeout NOTE The initial RF carrier button press and hold will NOT cause the carrier to be energized This is to prevent the carrier from being applied simply upon powering the unit The held button needs to be released and re pressed to activate the RF carrier NOTE To protect the battery from excess discharge a low battery shutoff has been incorporated into the unit This feature shuts the unit off in the event the battery becomes too discharged to properly power the unit Also NI CAD batteries can have their useful life shortened by discharging them beyond their design limits If the 120 minute auto shutoff has been selected the unit will still LOW BATTERY shut off if the battery level fall too low within the selected 120 minutes Applied Instruments Inc Model 6103 Model 6106 HECTER S PUP Operation Manual Version 2 14 2001 11 APPLIED INSTRUMENTS INC TELECOMMUNICATIONS INSTRUMENTATION 5230 Elmwood Ave Indianapolis Indiana 46203
