Issue Details

Can I use CR2032 instead of BR2032? In my country it is hard to purchase BR type battery.

Solution

It is not recommended to use the CR2032 instead of BR2032. BR2032 battery has better temperature range and less self-discharge so in the long run the BR2032 voltage would be better to use. You should bring it to Repair service on NI Support.
