4.4 Battery-Level Indicators
There are three battery-level indicators on the right of the display-module screen
as shown in figure 4. See section 6 for more section for more information on
battery replacement.

The unit is carefully calibrated after manufacture, and is rechecked during the
quality assurance stage. In order to test this calibration, and the correct operation
of the unit, press the two probe tips together; a reading of ‘0’ should be displayed.
5. Serial Number Identification
Each SB800 component is uniquely identified with a serial number. In addition to
a physical number, an electronic serial number is stored in each component and
these are shown on the screen when the display module is turned on. Note that
the displayed probe serial numbers are those in use when the display unit was
turned off. Therefore, the first time replacement probes are used, the displayed
serial numbers will not match the actual probes.

6. Battery Replacement
Each battery indicator is shown as a solid rectangle when the batteries are fully
charged. An empty, or near empty, rectangle indicates that the batteries in the
associated unit should be changed. The letter beside each battery tells which unit
the battery reading is for:
charged. An empty, or near empty, rectangle indicates that the batteries in the
associated unit should be changed. The letter beside each battery tells which unit
the battery reading is for:
R (
Red
) for the transmitter probe
B (
Blue
) for the receiver probe
S (
Silver
) for the display module
The unit will continue to give accurate timing measurements when the battery
voltage is low, as long as the transmit pulses continue, but the sensitivity will be
reduced. Ensure that the batteries are inserted correctly and never mix old
batteries with new ones. For maximum battery life, alkaline batteries should be
used.
6.1 Replacement of Probe Batteries
Unscrew the cap at the rear of the probe by turning it anticlockwise. The battery
holder can be slid out and the batteries changed. Ensure that the terminals on the
end of the battery holder point towards the probe tip when it is re-inserted, and
that they line up the metal contacts in the probe. Figure 5 shows the probes with
unscrewed caps.

that they line up the metal contacts in the probe. Figure 5 shows the probes with
unscrewed caps.
6.2 Replacement of Display-Unit Batteries
Remove the four screws on the rear of the display unit to open up the battery
cavity. Replace the batteries in the battery holder. Do not remove the plate that
covers the front of the display unit, as it seals the electronic and microprocessor
components from environmental damage. Figure 5 shows the display unit with
the battery cavity visible.
