In order to maintain and use the Data Collector, keep in mind these precautions.
•This product is made of precision parts so do not try to disassemble by yourself.
•Do not expose the Data Collector to excessive heat or cold. Do not place it direct sunlight, dusty or extremely humid areas. The utilization of the power supply in moisture places is forbidden. Do not leave the Data Collector on hot places, such as car trunk or seats.
•Do not expose it to mechanical shocks, especially during running programs, recording or booting up because it can cause permanent loss of data and damage to the LCD.
•Stroke keys must be pressed with care. Use only the special touch panel pen for working with the touch panel.
Do not apply excessive force or use sharp objects for this purpose because in that way you can damage the touch panel or internal circuitry.
E-4
•Blow off dust with a blower brush or a soft cloth.
No utilization of liquidor spray-cleansing agents is allowed. It may deform the keys or the body of the Data Collector. The Data Collector must not come in contact with chemicals and gasoline.
•Do not place heavy objects on the Data Collector.
Important! CASIO does not accept any responsibility for possible data loss caused during, or connected with, usage of the Data Collector.

Your Data Collector is powered by a rechargeable lithium ion battery pack and a lithium backup battery.
See page E-19 for details on how to recharge the battery pack.
1 Slide the battery pack compartment open button in the direction indicated by the arrow in the illustration, and open the cover.
2 With the indentation of the battery pack facing up (so you can see it), install the battery pack into the compartment as
shown in the illustration. Make sure that the battery pack’s terminals
are facing in the correct direction. Next, slide the
battery pack in the direction shown in the illustration so that it locks into place.
3 Close the battery pack compartment cover. Close the cover and then slide the open button in the direction indicated by the arrow to secure the cover in place.
Note that the battery pack will not supply power correctly unless the battery pack compartment cover is closed securely. Double check to make sure that the cover of your unit is closed correctly.
E-10
Always make sure that Data Collector power is turned off before removing the battery pack. Also, never remove the backup batteries while the battery pack is removed. Doing so will cause all memory contents to be deleted.
1 Slide the battery pack compartment open button in the direction indicated by the arrow in the illustration, and open the cover.
2 Slide the battery pack in the direction shown in the illustration and then remove it.
Important! • The power of the battery pack is depleted by testing prior to shipment and by natural discharging during shipping and storage. Be sure to use the procedures on page E-19 to charge the battery pack before using the unit for the first time.
•A message appears on the LCD whenever battery pack power drops below a certain level. Charge the battery pack as soon as possible after the lower power message appears.
•Always make sure that the Data Collector is turned off before opening the lithium ion battery pack compartment cover. The Data Collector is designed to automatically turn off power whenever the battery pack compartment cover opened. This can cause loss of memory data and system malfunction when power is turned back on.
•Make sure that the battery pack never becomes shorted. A short can cause damage to the battery pack.
•Repeated charges cause deterioration of the battery pack. If you find that your battery pack does not provide enough operation even after you bring it to a full charge, it probably means it is time to replace it.
•If you do not plan to use the Data Collector for a long time, protect against running down the power of the backup batteries by fully charging the battery pack.
E-11
Installing and Removing Batteries
The backup batteries protect the units memory contents whenever power from the main battery pack is interrupted due to replacement of the battery pack, when the battery pack is dead, etc.
Two lithium batteries are used for backup. The #2 backup battery is installed in the Data Collector prior to shipment, but you must install the #1 backup battery that comes with the Data Collector before using it for the first time.
Important! Dual backup batteries are employed in order to protect the #1 backup battery from going dead. Note that memory contents cannot be protected by the #2 backup battery alone.
1 Loosen the screw that secures the backup battery compartment cover in place. The cover is designed so the screws cannot be removed from the holes in order to protect against particles falling out of the screw threads into the battery compartment.
2 Lift up the side of the cover indicated in the illustration, and then slide the cover in the direction indicated by the arrow. Make sure you do not damage the tab on end of the cover.
3 Loosen the screw that holds the #1 backup battery holder in place, and remove the holder. The cover is designed so the screws cannot be removed from the holes in order to protect against particles falling out of the screw threads into the battery compartment.

#1 backup battery
E-12
4 Wipe the surface of the lithium battery you will install with a soft, dry cloth. Load the battery into the Data Collector so that its positive (+) side faces up (so you can see it).
5 Insert the tabs of the backup battery holder into the slots provided, and secure it in place with its screw.
6 Carefully replace the backup battery compartment cover. Insert the tab of the cover into the slot provided.
7 Secure the cover in place with its screw.
Important! • Whenever you remove the #1 backup battery and the main power supply’s battery pack at the same time, memory contents are lost, regardless of whether or not the #2 backup battery is installed. The #2 back-up battery alone does not protect memory contents.
•Never remove the #2 backup battery from the Data Collector.
•Always make sure that the + side of the lithium batteries are facing up (so you can see them) when installing them into the Data Collector.
•Replace the #1 backup battery as soon as possible after the backup battery replacement message appears on the Data Collector’s LCD. Before replacing the #1 backup battery, always check to make sure that the lithium ion battery pack’s power is not low first. Replacing the #1 backup battery while the lithium ion battery pack’s power is low can result is loss of all data stored in Data Collector memory.
