Hot Swapping Batteries
The xTablet T1400 supports hot-swapping of batteries, meaning the tablet doesn't need to be
powered off in order to replace the main battery. The xTablet T1400 has a backup battery inside
the tablet's main battery compartment that is charged by the main battery. The backup battery
cannot be removed except in service, and needs to have adequate power for hot swapping of
main battery to be done without issue. When the backup battery is fully charged, it can sustain up
to 5 minutes of runtime, so battery swapping needs to complete in under 5 minutes.
Perform the following to hot swap the batteries:
1. While the tablet is powered on, go to HotTab utility to check on the power level of the
Backup battery.
2. If the Backup battery level is at "Low", please charge the tablet with AC Power until the
Backup battery level is at "Medium" or "High", and do not remove the main battery.
a. If you need to swap in this situation then shut down the tablet and then swap with a
fully charged battery which will then begin charging your backup battery.
Note: If you have used the xTablet T1400 for several hours and then put it to sleep for
several days, the main battery will be slowly depleted and may lose power all together.
If that happens, your unsaved work will be lost and date/time will need to be set when
power is restored.
3. If the Backup battery level is at "Medium" or "High", continue to remove the main battery.
4. Insert a new fully charged removable battery into the battery compartment following the
instructions on page 9 of this manual.
5. Go to HotTab utility to check if Main battery level can be correctly read. If not, check if the
new battery is inserted properly.
6. If the Main battery level can be read, resume use the xTablet T1400.
