plusID Battery Recharge Instructions
The plusID device is powered by a rechargeable battery. A single battery charge is good for approximately
1,000 uses/verifications. plusID models that include an LCD have a battery charge indicator (0 - 3
bars).
How to Charge
Connecting to a computer is the preferred method of charging. Insert the smallest end of
the mini-USB cable (packaged with device) into the base of the plusID and the largest
end into the computer’s USB port.
! A high power USB port is required for charging. Some hub and keyboard USB ports are
incapable of charging plusID devices.
plusID can also be charged with some wall outlet or car chargers that have a mini-USB
connector output. Contact Privaris for a list of approved chargers. Using an unapproved
charger can cause permanent damage and void the warranty of a plusID device.
How Long to Charge
A blinking yellow light indicates a low battery and a blinking red light indicates a critically low
battery. Both require a recharge of approximately 90 minutes. The yellow light blinks while
charging and turns off to indicate a full charge. If the battery is fully depleted, it may need
recharging for two hours or more and may not power on during the first 20 – 30 minutes.
If the battery is too low for the device to function properly, it may simply not power on, or it may turn on,
display a solid red light and then immediately power off. In this state, a recharge of two hours or more
may be required and the device may not exhibit any signs of life for the first 20 – 30 minutes of charging.
Note: A dead battery has no affect on the data that is stored on the plusID device
