Location Recorder Model PD606
Chapter 8: MENU mode/BATTERY SETUP menu
Using the "BATT. warning" item, you can set the threshold low battery voltage for generating
the warning tone. When the battery voltage drops down to the threshold voltage for warning,
you can hear the warning tone via headphones.
To hear the warning tone, you must set the "BATT. warning" item on the "Error tone" menu
item in the "SYS SETUP" menu of the MENU mode to "On". (The default is "On". See page 165 for
details.) You can also check the remaining time until battery voltage drops down to the thresh-
old voltage via the "BATT. Remain" menu item. See page 178 for details.
3) While "BATT. warning" is highlighted, press the [ENTER/YES] key.
The current setting starts flashing. You can now select a voltage from the following.
<Note>:
When you make recording using a BMS battery, if the remaining time until
the battery drops down to the threshold voltage becomes less than one minute, the
warning message appears on the display. And after a minute passes, the unit auto-
matically stops recording. When you make recording using a non-BMS battery, if
the battery voltage reaches the threshold voltage, the warning message appears on
the display. And after a minute, the unit automatically stop recording. If another
spare battery is also mounted, the unit automatically switches the power source to it
after the warning message appears on the display. When you make recording using
a lithium ion battery, we recommend setting the threshold voltage to around 12.9V
because the output voltage of a lithium ion battery drops down rapidly after it
reaches around 12.9V.

4) Use the [MENU] dial to select a desired option and press the [ENTER/YES] key to confirm
your setting.
5) Press the [EXIT] key repeatedly until you exit the MENU mode.
12.0V, 12.3V, 12.6V, 12.9V, 13.2V (default), 13.5V, and 13.8V.
* 12.9V or higher is recommended.
Available options for a BMS battery
1) While the unit is stopped, press the [SHIFT] key followed by the [ENTER/YES] key.
2) Use the [MENU] dial to select the "BATTERY SETUP" menu and press the [ENTER/YES] key.
The display shows the screen for battery-related settings.

* we recommend the following setting depending on the battery type.
For NiCd battery: 10.5V
For Lithium Ion battery: 12.9V or higher
