==Replacing the Battery==
To replace the APC battery, an Engineer (or other compatible authorities) must swipe their card on the APC.
To replace the APC battery, you need an ID with sufficient access to unlock the APC itself.<br>
<br>Then, the Engineer must disengage the protective cover.
 
<br>The cover can be taken off with a crowbar.
#Swipe your ID and unlock the interface.
<br>The Engineer can be free to remove the battery and insert a new one.
#Open the panel and disengage the cover lock.
<br>Once done, the Engineer can crowbar the cover back on, re-lock the cover, and lock the APC interface.
#Use a crowbar on the APC to open the cover.
#Take the battery out with a free hand and then place in the new one.
#Close the cover again with your crowbar, re-engage the cover lock and swipe your ID to secure the interface.
