BATTERIES AND MAINTENANCE
Rechargeable backup batteries and battery packs are not initially
fully charged. Therefore the initial operation to perform is to charge
them. See below.
NOTE
By default, the battery pack is disconnected at the factory to avoid
damage due to excessive draining.
Annual replacement of rechargeable battery pack avoids possible
risks or abnormalities and ensures maximum performance.
CAUTION
2.1
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
The battery pack autonomy varies according to many factors, such
as the frequency of barcode scanning, RF usage, battery life,
storage, environmental conditions, etc.
NOTE
The battery icon on the Taskbar indicates when the battery pack is low.
It is possible to recharge the battery pack by connecting the power supply directly to
the Elf.
Alternatively, it is also possible to recharge the battery pack by using the single slot
dock, the powered mobile dock, the Ethernet four slot dock or the four slot battery
charger.
Moreover recharging is possible by USB direct connection with the host computer,
but with longer charging times and only if the PDA is off.
During the charging process the LED positioned at the left side of the display glows
red constantly. Once the charging process has been completed this LED glows green
constantly (see par. 4.5.1).
If the battery pack is removed from the PDA, it can be recharged by inserting it into
the rear slot of the single slot dock, the powered mobile dock, the ethernet four slot
dock or the four slot battery charger.
