The Anritsu MT8222A BTS Master is capable of approximately 3 hours of continuous operation from a fully charged, field‑replaceable battery (refer to Section “Battery Replacement” of “General Information”). The MT8222A can also be operated from a 12 VDC source (which will also simultaneously charge the battery). This can be achieved with either the Anritsu AC–DC Adapter (Anritsu part number 40‑168‑R) or 12 VDC Automotive Cigarette Lighter Adapter (Anritsu part number 806‑141‑R). Both items are included as standard accessories.

When using the Automotive Cigarette Lighter 12 VDC Adapter, Anritsu Part Number 806‑141‑R, always verify that the supply is rated for a minimum of 60 Watts at 12 VDC and that the socket is clear of any dirt or debris. If the adapter plug becomes hot to the touch during operation, then discontinue use immediately.

To turn on the MT8222A, press the On/Off button on the front panel (Figure: “MT8222A On/Off Button”).

The MT8222A BTS Master takes approximately sixty seconds to complete power‑up and to load the application software. At the completion of this process, the instrument is ready to be used.
