Wiring to 1 & 4 does charge the battery, though only while the unit is powe=
red on. Wiring to 2 & 3 does power the unit, but charges the battery whethe=
r powered off or on.
SD includes your third option further down on the same page in the manual s=
tating, "The included AC-to-DC power supply operates the unit and charges t=
he removable batteries simultaneously. Pins-3 and -4 are wired to (+) and p=
ins-1 and -2 are wired to (=96)."
I think I determined the low battery switch-over problem occurred with all =
three wiring methods, but that was quite a while ago so I would have to dig=
up those notes to confirm.
