1.1 BATTERY

The scanner is powered by a rechargeable 3.7 V/800 mAh Li-ion battery, and it takes
approximately 5 hours to charge the battery to full (via 3656 from the power adaptor).
However, the charging time may vary by working condition. For intensive data collection,
you may need to purchase a spare battery for non-stop operation.
Note: See also "Power Economy", "CCD Sensor Always Active", "Sniff Mode", as well as
"Low Battery Alarm".

1.1.1 TURN ON/OFF THE SCANNER

Turn on the scanner...
After installing the battery, pull down the trigger for about 2 seconds. The scanner will respond
with a long beep (high tone), then the LED will become solid red and go off quickly.
Turn off the scanner...
Remove the battery directly or let it turn off automatically in specific circumstances.
