The equipment is delivered with the battery deactivated. The Power Fail alarm is activated by the
battery rocker switch within the lockable panel, which is located at the bottom right-hand corner.

after switching it back on.
The factory-set temperature is -80°C.

indication, and/or a disabled alarm system.
