RE: Warning light on secondary cabinet of 520 ^H^H^H OOPS, I meant 510

Also - to clarify - I meant a *system* with a 5073-style tower - it
disables battery capacity checking on all frames, including the CEC.

Keep in mind your SRC won't go away until you remove and reinsert the
battery.  Remove it, wait a minute or so, and then re-insert.

I can vouch that this works on a 5073-style tower.  YMMV on other
models.

Not being an SST expert, how would one turn off battery checking?

I'm reminded of something that happened many years ago with our late,
lamented D02. The system started buzzing, not long before we moved from
Lake Forest to Costa Mesa. 
When we powered it up in the new office (even as the remodeling was
continuing around it), I tracked the buzz down to the battery backup
module. Since an unexpected shutdown of that box was of little
consequence, I simply pulled the module out permanently. Kept the cable
as a souvenir; it may still be around here someplace.
