How do I use the battery maintenance feature?

This guide explains how to correctly activate the battery maintenance feature for Kentix wireless components starting from KentixONE version 8.6.0. Activation is mandatory after initial commissioning and every battery replacement to ensure reliable recording and processing of battery values.

1. Activate battery maintenance for wireless components​

1.1 Prerequisites​

  • The wireless component is already integrated into KentixONE.
  • The battery has been replaced or newly inserted.
  • Access to the configuration of the wireless component is available.

1.2 Open the maintenance area​

  1. Open KentixONE.
  2. Navigate to the desired wireless component.
  3. Open the configuration of the component.
  4. Switch to the maintenance section.

1.3 Enable battery replacement logging​

In the maintenance section, activate the feature "Battery has been replaced".

Enabling this action performs the following:

  • Logs the battery replacement.
  • Automatically resets the battery measurement value.

This ensures that the battery indicator works again based on the new measurement value.

1.4 Complete activation​

  • After activation, at least one successful booking must be carried out.
  • Only then is the battery maintenance fully completed, and the new measurement values are processed correctly.

Notes​

  • Activating the battery maintenance feature is mandatory after initial commissioning and each battery replacement.
  • Without activation, incorrect battery levels or warnings may occur.
  • Successful booking serves as confirmation for the new measurement value basis.
