Issue
Received a DMS-BATT-001 replacement battery for a DMS panel and the battery voltage is not 3.6 VDC.
Environment
DMS-BATT-001, E17-131
Cause
The DMS-BATT-001 is a custom 3 cell rechargeable NICAD battery. The voltage of the replacement battery, as received from the factory, may be less than 3.6 VDC until the battery is recharged by the panel or device.
