PSA Series 5 hand-held RF spectrum analyzers: Power Options
Battery Life
At normal screen brightness the instrument can
operate for more than three hours from each charge from its high
capacity Li-Ion battery.
The multi-segment battery indicator turns yellow when the remaining time
falls below about 30 mins, and to red when only 10 minutes remain.
The approximate time in hours and minutes is also shown within the
status screens. To further conserve battery life, it
can be set to turn off automatically at a fixed time from the last key
press (5 mins to 60 mins). No data is lost at switch-off.
External Power
The supplied AC power unit can recharge a fully
discharged battery in less than three hours.
The instrument can be operated continuously from AC
power. Power control circuitry ensures that the battery can not be
overcharged.
It is also possible to slow-charge the battery from a USB port.
