Page 24: Battery
Reference Manual 1.4. BATTERY The CP55 mobile computer is fed by two batteries, main battery pack and backup battery. The main battery is removable and replaceable from the battery chamber while the backup battery is mounted on the main board inside the mobile computer.
Page 25 Chapter 1 Use Mobile Computer To install the main battery pack, follow through the steps below: Figure 4: Main Battery Setup 1) Remove the handstrap. 2) Push the battery door lock (left) to “unlock” position. 3) Push back the battery release button (right). The battery door opens automatically. Detach the battery door to reveal the battery chamber.
Page 26: Charge Batteries
CP55 Mobile Computer Reference Manual 5) Replace the battery door by fixing the lower edge first, and pushing the release button. 6) Push the battery lock back to “lock” position. Note: (1) When main battery level drops to low level, charge it ASAP or replace it with a charged battery.
Page 27 Chapter 1 Use Mobile Computer DIRECT CHARGING USING SNAP-ON CABLE Direct charging of the mobile computer relies on the Snap-on Charging & Communication Cable (hereinafter “snap-on cable”). There is a power jack on the connector of this cable to connect external power. Prior to charging, install the main battery as described in Main Battery Setup.
Page 28 CP55 Mobile Computer Reference Manual DIRECT CHARGING USING CRADLE Direct cradle charging makes use of a Charging & Communication Cradle (hereinafter “cradle”). The cradle is one of the accessories you can opt for. Prior to charging, install main battery as described in Main Battery Setup.
Page 29: Monitor Battery Level
Chapter 1 Use Mobile Computer 1.4.3. MONITOR BATTERY LEVEL The main battery is the only source that feeds the mobile computer to work. It also supplies the backup battery on main board to retain the data stored in DRAM. Hence when main battery level gets low, recharge it or change it as soon as possible.
Page 30 CP55 Mobile Computer Reference Manual BATTERY STATUS ICONS The OS features a couple of icons that deliver main battery status. These icons can be found on the Title Bar. Battery status icon Battery level is illustrated by the following icons:...
Page 31 Chapter 1 Use Mobile Computer LOW BATTERY ALERT When main battery level drops below 40%, the mobile computer prompts “Main Battery Low” for a recharge. When further reduced to under 20%, the mobile computer prompts “Main Battery Very low” to solicit your immediate action. Low battery may incur shutdown to the mobile computer and cause DRAM data damage.
Page 32 CP55 Mobile Computer Reference Manual BACKUP BATTERY LEVEL 1) To check backup battery level, tap Start | Settings | Power On Battery tab page of Power Properties window, backup battery level is summarized as “High”, “Low” or “Critical” under the Power label.
Page 33: Power Management
Chapter 1 Use Mobile Computer LOW BATTERY ALERT When backup battery level drops to “Very Low”, the mobile computer prompts a “Backup Battery Very Low” warning to alert users that backup battery level is almost drained out. Backup battery is rechargeable by the main battery pack or the power adapter. Low backup battery puts DRAM data in great danger.

Page 225: Push To Talk
Chapter 7 More Applications 7.5. PUSH TO TALK CipherLab Push to Talk is a walkie-talkie service that allows users of an active talk group to communicate with all other members of the group instantaneously with a simple push of a button.
Page 226: Communicate With Group Members
CP55 Mobile Computer Reference Manual 7.5.2. COMMUNICATE WITH GROUP MEMBERS Push to Talk functions through group communication, meaning that when an audio transmission is initiated on one device, all other devices in that group will receive the audio message. Groups are established by Wi-Fi connection under a specific subnetwork (subnet).
Page 227 Chapter 7 More Applications “Transmitting” status indicates the device is in transmit mode When tapped and held, PUSH button turns red When finished transmitting the audio message, let go of the PUSH button. The button will return to gray and the mobile computer will switch back to voice reception mode.
Page 228 CP55 Mobile Computer Reference Manual RECEIVING AUDIO CONTENT To receive audio content from group members: 1) Have all devices you would like to communicate with connect to a specific (or several specific) access point(s) as described in Wi-Fi. Make sure these access points belong to the same subnet.
Page 229 Chapter 7 More Applications MANAGING MEMBER LIST The Member List will show all other devices (not including the device under operation) that have connected to the wireless subnet and are currently running the Push to Talk application. OPEN MEMBER LIST 1) Launch Push to Talk as described in Launch Push to Talk.

Page 231 Chapter 7 More Applications DEVICE DISCONNECTED When one or more of the devices in the group is disconnected, the status bar before the device name will change to gray. The Member List label will be updated to reflect the remaining number of connected devices. When this occurs, check the Wi-Fi connection status on that specific device, make sure the mobile computer is powered on and not in suspension, and the Push to Talk application is currently running.
