Charging a Version 1 Wireless Unit
Do Not use the version 1 units for data transfer until charging is complete.
1 Plug the charging adapter into the charger receptacle on the front of the
wireless unit.
2 Plug the other end of the charging adapter into an AC power outlet.
CAUTION: Do Not crimp the charging adapter cable—either leave the tote lid open
during charging or remove the wireless unit from the tote.
Charging is indicated by a blinking CHARGING LED. When charging is complete,
the LED illuminates steady green. At this point, the unit is sufficiently charged and
ready for use.
3 When charging is complete, unplug the charger from the unit.
Charging a Version 2 Wireless Unit
You can continue using the version 2 wireless unit for data transfer while it is charging.
1 Plug the charging adapter into the charger receptacle on the front of the
wireless unit.
2 Plug the other end of the charging adapter into an AC power outlet.
CAUTION: Do Not crimp the charging adapter cable—either leave the tote lid open
during charging or remove the wireless unit from the tote.
Charging is indicated by a blinking CHARGING LED. When charging is complete,
the LED illuminates steady green. It takes approximately 5.5 hours to charge a drained
battery to full capacity. Each hour of charging yields approximately 1.5 hours of
continuous data transferring.
3 When charging is complete, you can unplug the charger from the unit, or leave
it plugged in to keep the unit at a full charge.
Reforming the Wireless Unit Battery
The wireless unit contains a nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery pack that may require
reformation after long-term storage or if it will not hold a charge. Reforming is a process
of repeated cycles of charging and discharging to restore the battery to normal operating
condition.
If you observe that the wireless unit does not hold a charge, reform the battery. Perform
the procedure at 0–30°C in a well ventilated room. If reforming multiple units, do not
stack. Allow 2 inches between units.
