9Psion Teklogix WAPro Vehicle Cradle User Manual
The power Vehicle Cradle draws no more than 2.5A . Any
additional wiring, connectors or disconnects used should be
rated for at least 5A. The Powered Vehicle Cradle is fully
isolated and can be used with both negative and positive
chassis vehicles.
You have the option of connecting power to the Cradle
before or after the ‘key’ switch.
It is preferable to wire after the key switch. In this congu-
ration, when the key is turned ON, the vehicle will power
the terminal and charge the internal battery when needed.
When the vehicle ignition is OFF, the WORKABOUT
PRO will run on its internal battery,
However, if the operator switches the key off repeatedly
for long periods during a shift, it may make more sense to
wire the Vehicle Cradle before the switch. In this case, the
Terminal will always operate from vehicle power and that
power will charge the battery when needed.
Keep in mind that the WORKABOUT PRO and Port
Replicator accessory will continue to operate with or
without vehicle power as long as the WORKABOUT PRO
internal battery has sufcient charge.
If an unfused power source must be used a fuse assembly
(PN 19440-300) must be added to the extension power
cable (the fuse and instructions are supplied with the cable).
Use only a 5A slow blow UL approved fuse in the fuse
assembly.
