The operator can use the Spot LXi with AC or battery power (after charging the battery).
1. Insert the round transformer connector into the AC power connection port on the
back of the Spot LXi (see Figure 5 on page 25).
2. Insert the line cord into the line connector on the transformer then plug the power
cord on the transformer into the AC main power source to charge the battery.
Charge the battery for 6 hours before initial use. Charge the device an additional hour if it
includes a Braun ThermoScan PRO 4000 thermometer. If there is an external printer,
connect the printer to the Spot LXi, enable it in the Internal Configuration Mode (see
“Initial Configuration Screen” on page 23 if this is the first time you power on the device
and then Table 7 on page 33), and then charge the Spot LXi for an additional 4 hours.
While Spot LXi is charging, the charging LED (~) flashes and the battery level indicator
segments on the display continuously sequence. When the battery is fully charged, the
charging LED is solid and the battery level indicator is steady with all segments
continuously shown on the display.
If the device includes a Braun ThermoScan PRO 4000 thermometer, the charging LED
below the thermometer will illuminate orange as it is charging. When the battery is fully
charged, the LED will power off.
If the device has an external printer, the charging LED on the printer will flash orange and
green when Spot LXi is plugged into the AC main power source.
Note There is no hazard associated with leaving the battery in the device, even if the
device is not used for long periods of time.
A dead battery may result if the Spot LXi is left uncharged or shipped/stored for a long
period of a time. If this occurs use the supplied transformer to plug the Spot LXi into the
AC line. Do not use the device for two hours. In extreme cases, the charge condition LED
does not blink (to indicate a fast charge) or the device loses the time and date stamp. If
this happens unplug the accessories and plug the Spot LXi into the AC line using the
appropriate adapter. If the Spot LXi still fails to indicate a fast charge, unplug the AC
adapter, disconnect and reconnect the battery, and plug in the AC adapter. Leave unused
for two hours.
Press the Power button to turn the device on or off. Upon each power up, the display
lights up, a beep sounds, and the Spot LXi displays the model and serial numbers. If the
internal self-check is successful, the display shows its normal functions (see Figure 4 on
page 24) with all values blank, and the device is ready for operation. If the self-check fails,
an error code is shown in the Navigation Window.
Spot LXi automatically powers off when not used for 30 minutes.
