[TenTec] Omni II master resets when turned on.

[Barry Simpson]

Hi Dennis
It is undoubtedly the battery that needs replacing. I had a friend's 566 to
sort out and that did exactly the same but was fixed when I replaced the
battery.
Go to the Ten Tec Wiki, then to the 565 (not the 566) and that section has
full info on the battery and how to replace it with colour pictures. It
applies to the 566 as well as the 565.
