Hi, Y'all-
Actually I think it is a secondary battery for the clock. I got that error 
message on a used E-520 that I bought. I would get that screen even if I had a 
good battery in the camera overnight.

I eventually just sent it in to Olympus for repair. 

Thanks,

That would make sense to an engineer - having a separate battery is a problem 
at times (weird batteries on computer motherboards that you didn't know existed 
until...) Canons used to have a flat CR2025 somewhere. But they'd rather avoid 
battery problems I assume, given that a capacitor can do the job and most 
people don't run their battery to exhaustion and then just, well... I have 
three OMD batteries!
