TERMINAL SETUP
Charging the Smart Battery
40 VX 680 INSTALLATION GUIDE
Charging the
Smart Battery
After unpacking your VX 680 terminal, install the battery and connect the power
pack to the unit for 6 hours or until fully charged.
The smart battery has a safety circuit to protect the Li-ion cells from overcharging
and over-discharging. If the battery is over-discharged, the safety circuit shuts
down the battery. The battery must then be recharged to restore operation.
Battery Life
Charging and discharging the VX 680 smart battery hundreds of times will wear
out the battery. Significantly reduced operating times indicate the need for battery
replacement (see Accessories and Documentation for ordering information).
NOTE
The terminal charges the VX 680 smart battery when the terminal is in the Base
Station. For more information, see Mounting the Terminal Onto the Base Station.
NOTE
The VX 680 terminal automatically shuts off when the smart battery reaches the
critically low charge state. If this occurs, the smart battery must be recharged for a
minimum of 1/2 hour before it can power the terminal. It may take several
recharge attempts to reset the safety circuit when charging a smart battery that
has been discharged below this critical state.
WARNING
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. Li-ion batteries must be recycled
or disposed of properly. Do not dispose of Li-ion batteries in municipal
waste sites.
