Need clarification in AcuTrac22 Pro Manual

I just finished reading the instruction manual for my AcuTrac22 Pro, and I wonder if someone could clarify a point.

On Page 1, under the heading “CHARGE THE BATTERY” it says:

“The AcuTrac22 Pro can be powered by internal battery or from a satellite receiver.”

Then the last paragraph says:

“To use a satellite receiver for power or to power the meter when the battery is discharged, plug the AcuTrac22 Pro into the coax between the receiver and LNB, the AcuTract22 Pro will power up immediately.”

In the next section, “STARUP” says:

“After the battery has charged, press ON/MENU button. The AcuTrac22 Pro is immediately ready to begin antenna alignment.”

My question: If the battery is fully charged, but I just want to use the satellite receiver voltage to align the dish, how do I turn the internal battery off? Or, does the battery in the AcuTrac22 Pro only power the display?

I would appreciate your help.

Thanks, Backscatter
