PREPARATION
POWER SOURCES
You can power your SCP-97 from any of these power
sources:
• Internal battery power
• Standard AC power
• Vehicle battery power
Note: Connecting an adapter automatically discon-
nects internal battery power.
USING INTERNAL BATTERY
POWER
You can power the SCP-97 from two AA batteries
(not supplied). For the best performance, we recom-
mend alkaline batteries, such as RadioShack Cat.
No. 23-557. Follow these steps to install batteries.

ment, with the back battery over the ribbon.
Cautions:

Cautions:
• Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly.
Do not burn or bury them.
• If you do not plan to use the SCP-97 for a week
or more, or if you plan to power it using only an
AC or DC adapter, remove the batteries. Batter-
ies can leak chemicals that can corrode or dam-
age electronic circuits.
USING AC POWER
You can power the SCP-97 with an optional AC
adapter, such as Cat. No. 273-1654.
Cautions:
• The recommended AC adapter supplies 3 volts
and delivers at least 300 milliamps. Its center tip
is set to negative, and its plug correctly fits the
SCP-97’s DC3V jack. Using an adapter that does
not meet these specifications could damage the
SCP-97 or the adapter.

• Be sure to connect the adapter to the SCP-97
before you connect it to the AC outlet, and dis-
connect the adapter from the AC outlet before
you disconnect it from the SCP-97.
Follow these steps to power the SCP-97 from a stan-
dard AC outlet.
1. Set the adapter’s voltage switch to 3V.
2. Insert the adapter’s 3.4 mm outer diameter/1.3
mm inner diameter barrel plug into the adapter’s
cord so it reads –TIP.
3. Insert the adapter’s barrel plug into the SCP-97’s
DC3V jack.
4. Plug the adapter into a standard AC outlet.

USING VEHICLE BATTERY
POWER
You can power the SCP-97 from a vehicle’s battery
using an optional DC adapter, such as Cat. No. 270-
1560.
Cautions:
• The recommended DC adapter supplies 3 volts
and delivers at least 300 milliamps. Its center tip
is set to negative, and its plug correctly fits the
SCP-97’s DC3V jack. Using an adapter that does
not meet these specifications could damage the
SCP-97 or the adapter.
• Be sure to connect the adapter to the SCP-97
before you connect it to the cigarette-lighter
socket, and disconnect the adapter from the cig-
arette-lighter socket before you disconnect it
from the SCP-97.
