Charging the Battery
Charging the Main Battery and Memory Backup Battery
Before using the mobile computer for the first time, charge the main battery until the amber charge status LED
remains lit (see Table 1-2 on page 1-5 for charge status indications). To charge the mobile computer, use a
cradle or the CAM with a charging cable.
The mobile computer is equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from the
fully-charged main battery. When using the mobile computer for the first time, the backup battery requires
approximately 24 hours to fully charge. This is also true any time the backup battery is discharged, which
occurs when the main battery is removed for several hours. The backup battery retains data in memory for at
least 30 minutes when the mobile computer's main battery is removed. When the mobile computer reaches a
very low battery state, the combination of main battery and backup battery retains data in memory for at least
72 hours.
Use the following accessories to charge batteries:
•
Cradles: The mobile computer and spare batteries slip into a cradle for battery charging. For detailed
cradle setup and charging procedures see:
• Single Slot USB Cradle on page 2-4.
• Four Slot Ethernet Cradle on page 2-13
• Four Slot Ethernet Cradle on page 2-13.
•
Cable Adapter Module (CAM): The CAM snaps on to the mobile computer to provide charging capability,
when used with one of the accessory charging cables. For detailed setup and charging procedures see
Cable Adapter Module on page 2-22.
•
Chargers: The mobile computer’s spare battery charging accessories are used to charge batteries that
are removed from the mobile computer. For detailed spare battery charging accessories setup and
charging procedures see:
• Single Slot USB Cradle on page 2-4
• Four Slot Spare Battery Charger on page 2-18
• Universal Battery Charger (UBC) Adapter on page 2-25.
NOTE Do not remove the main battery within the first 15 hours of use. If the main battery is removed before the
backup battery is fully charged, data can be lost.
