solid green (see Table 1-1 on page 1-3
cradle with the appropriate power supply. For information about the accessories available for the MC40, see
Chapter 7, Accessories.
The MC40 is equipped with a memory backup battery that automatically charges from the fully-charged main
battery. When using the MC40 for the first time, the backup battery requires approximately 36 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 random access memory (RAM) data in memory for at
least 10 minutes (at room temperature) when the MC40's main battery is removed, when Battery Swap feature
is used. When the MC40 reaches a very low battery state, the combination of main battery and backup battery
retains RAM data in memory for at least 48 hours.
