Maximizing Battery Life

CK30 Handheld Computer User's Manual
Chapter 1 — Using the CK30 Handheld Computer
To install the battery
• Insert the tabs on the bottom of the charged battery into the
CK30 and snap the battery into place.
There are several things that you can do to prolong the life of
your fully charged battery.
1 Verify that Radio Power Management is enabled (Fast PSP).
Enabling radio power management allows your radio to
switch between awake and sleep modes based on network
traffic. If you use the default setting of disabled (CAM), you
will have the best network performance (data throughput) but
it will draw the most power from your battery.
2 Verify that the backlight timeout is set to 15 seconds.
3 Verify that Power Management has an automatic shutoff time
of 3 minutes.
You can use the Configuration Utility to easily make all of these
configuration changes. For help, see "Configuring the CK30
With the Configuration Utility" on page 34.
