Battery Charging in the Cradle

Single slot cradles act as power pass throughs to the device allowing the device to charge the Li-ion battery in the
device. A complete charge of a fully discharged battery can take up to four hours using external power and up to 10
hours using the interface cable.
NOTE To charge the battery for your device, battery and charger temperatures must be between +32° F and +104° F
(0° C to +40° C).
To charge the device:
Connect the single slot USB cradle to a power source.
1.
Insert the battery into the battery slot in the device noting the battery polarity.
2.
Insert the top of the device into the cradle first, then firmly press the device into place. The device's green
3.
charge LED indicates the device battery charging status.
When charging is completed, the green LED is off and the device can be lifted out of the cradle.
4.
NOTE If the battery is completely discharged, and the unit is powered from a USB or RS232 cable, it may take up
to two hours for the unit to power up.There is no indication to the user of this condition and it may appear
that the unit is not charging and/or not working correctly. However, if the unit is placed in an STB2000 or
STB2078 cradle with the 12V power supply power up is immediate.
