3. The terminal's battery charging LED is yellow while charging. When the battery is
fully charged, the LED switches to solid green.
Leave the terminal in the cradle for 2 hours to recharge a fully discharged battery.
Caution: The temperature range for charging the battery is 0
er outside these temperatures.
Caution: Removing the terminal while the cradle's yellow communications LED is on or flashing dis-
rupts communication between the host and the terminal.

Charging the Battery Via Power Supply

The battery can be charged in the terminal using the power supply. The terminal can be used
while the battery is charging.
1. Plug the power supply connector in the round power supply port, located on the
back of the connector on the end of the serial cable.
2. Connect the power supply to the adapter cable.
3. Connect the other end of the adapter cable to a standard electrical outlet.
A fully discharged battery requires approximately 2 hours to recharge.

Charging the Spare Battery in the Cradle

The cradle's charge LED remains off when no battery is present in the battery slot. During
charging of a battery, the cradle's charge LED turns solid yellow. The battery requires up to
5 hours to fully charge. Once charging is complete, the cradle's charge LED turns solid green.
The charge LED flickers for approximately one second every ten minutes that a fully charged
battery is present in the spare battery slot, while the charger performs a self-check.
If a fault condition is encountered, charging stops and the charge LED blinks yellow
approximately twice per second. The fault may be due to a faulty battery, or it may be caused
by any momentary loss of contact between the battery and the cradle. Within approximately
ten minutes of encountering a fault, the cradle performs a self-check. If the battery is not
faulty, charging will resume as above. If the battery is faulty, the charge LED may turn yellow
as if charging, but will eventually blink yellow again. For a faulty battery, this cycle will
repeat until the battery is removed from the spare battery slot.
