IMPORTANT The InterActive 2000 HyTRON battery represents the latest in video battery technology. Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) is similar to NiCad batteries in most characteristics. However, NiMH has more sensitive charging and discharging parameters and requires a longer charge time for optimum performance. The charge time is approximately 2-6 hours, depending on battery and charger combination. Hytron batteries are specifically designed to be charged with current InterActive o

INTRODUCTION The development of the new InterActive 2000 HyTRON battery system has been made possible by recent advancements in a cell technology originally designed for the mobile computing industry. These nickel metal hydride cells provide the highest energy density cell available. The high performance of the new batteries is assured through the incorporation of the pioneering InterActive technology of the Anton/Bauer Digital system. Each battery is equipped with an on board “fue

FEATURES 1. Microprocessor Fuel Computer - Accurately monitors the energy put into and taken out of the battery. This data is processed with sophisticated programs that take into account battery age, self discharge, charge/discharge rate, cell imbalance and previously experienced charge/discharge cycles. The HyTRON battery constantly “learns” its precise state of charge and remaining capacity. This data is automatically transmitted to an InterActive charger. 2. Integral ‘LCD’ - Accur

® 6. Impac Case design - The computer designed high impact case eliminates conventional stress points. This feature protects the cells from impact that would damage or destroy conventional batteries. ® 7. Gold Mount Interface - The solid metal mounting studs assure a smooth, precise mounting for the life of the battery. The Logic Series connector assembly features multiple gold plated, self aligning contacts and is compatible with all existing Anton/Bauer camera mounts and accessories.

HIGH VOLTAGE DESIGN Virtually all cameras/camcorders will indicate a low voltage warning or cease to operate at about 11 volts. Unfortunately, a 12 volt battery must be discharged to 10 volts for full discharge. Thus, a camera/camcorder operating on a 12 volt battery will always cease to operate before fully discharging the battery, leaving 50% of the total capacity unused under certain conditions. The amount of this wasted capacity can vary each day depending on temperature, etc.,

CHARGING WITH LOGIC SERIES INTERACTIVE CHARGERS Charge this battery fully before using. Allow the battery to reach a ® steady green (LifeSaver ) mode before using. Charging is automatic on all Logic Series InterActive chargers. The flashing red and green lights indicate the charger and battery are establishing communications. The following are the standard indications on any Logic Series InterActive Charger (Please refer to the Charger manual for complete charging instructions):

OVER-DISCHARGED BATTERIES Warning: The HyTRON battery has specialized circuits which typically will not allow a battery to overdischarge during extended storage (more than 90 days). However, if the battery is left on a load, such as a light, and allowed to discharge to 0 volts, the battery can be irreversibly damaged. Never leave any battery unattended on equipment. An “over-discharged” voltage state is caused by leaving a battery operated device unattended and allowing the battery

The HyTRON features an all NEW “RealTime” LCD display providing on-the-fly remaining run time estimates in 15 minute increments as well as simultaneously providing remaining capacity information using the traditional “Fuel Gauge” approach. No special adapters or set up is required. RealTime automatically calculates the load and displays capacity information and battery status at all times. Special electronics protect the Ni-Mh in the HyTRON battery from damage and to ensure safe operat

If the SIDE BARS (only) flash AND other icons are lit and not flashing, this indicates the battery has requested to be fully charged and discharged in order to update its “learned capacity”. This “learning” should typically occur during normal equipment operation. However, if the battery has not been fully charged and discharged for some time, this indication will appear. To remove the flashing SIDE BARS, fully charge the battery (STEADY GREEN indication) on the InterActive 2000 charge

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE The HyTRON battery incorporates unique battery management features. Together with Anton/Bauer diagnostic accessories, an effective preventative maintenance program can easily be created to optimize the return on battery investment and greatly simplify battery management operations. The PowerCharger, coupled with a DDM (Diagnostic Discharge Module), will provide a complete battery management system. The PowerCharger will allow you to run diagnostic evaluat

GUIDELINES FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE AND MAXIMUM LIFE 1. Keep batteries cool or at room temperatures whenever possible. Sustained elevated temperatures are the primary reason for premature failure of NiMH batteries: a. Charging - Charge batteries at room temperature. In warm climates keep chargers in air conditioned rooms that are maintained between 65°F to 85°F for best performance. b. On assignment - Do not leave batteries in a hot vehicle trunk or out in direct sunlight unnecessar

5. Routine use of a battery at discharge rates greater than the battery rating (e.g. >50w for Hytron 50) can reduce overall service life. Always select the proper size battery for your application. 6. Discharging the battery for diagnostic purposes should only be performed on an occasional basis (once every 6-8 weeks at most). Unnecessary discharging only detracts from overall life. 7. Periodic cleaning of both the charger terminals and battery terminals will ensure continued reli
