Battery Replacement It is highly recommended that the battery be replaced every 12 months, or prior to logging critical data.

The RHT50 does not lose its stored readings when the battery weakens or when the battery is replaced; the data logging process will however be stopped and cannot be re-started until the battery has been replaced and the logged data has been downloaded to PC.

Use only 3.6V lithium batteries. Before replacing the battery, remove the datalogger from the PC. Follow diagrammatic steps below.

NOTE: Leaving the RHT50 plugged into the PC USB port longer than necessary will cause some of the battery capacity to be lost.

1. Unscrew the protective sensor cap counter-clockwise. 2. Remove the protective cap and safely set it aside. 3. While inserting a small flat blade screwdriver into the slot and applying moderate pressure to the

locking tab, pull the front (USB side) of the RHT50 outward. 4. Completely disassemble the meter to access the battery compartment. 5. Insert battery. 6. Re-assemble the meter. 7. Replace the cap. 8. Hand-tighten the cap in a clockwise motion. Do not over tighten.
