Battery Charging Indicators
To charge the mobile computer’s battery through the CAM, connect the power supply to the CAM (see Figure
6-16 on page 6-16), then attach the CAM to the mobile computer. The mobile computer begins charging
automatically.
The mobile computer’s amber charge LED, located in the Indicator LED Bar, shows the status of the battery
charging in the mobile computer. See Table 1-2 on page 1-7 for charging status indications.
The battery usually charges in less than four hours, if the mobile computer is not in use.
Serial/USB Connection
The CAM can connect to and communicate with a serial/USB device, such as a printer or host computer,
through its serial port.
To connect the CAM to a serial/USB device, connect one end of the serial device cable into the serial port on
the CAM and the other end into the serial/USB port on the device.
