Using Your Batteries
This section describes how to use your Tablet PC battery. The Standard
Battery is located at the top of the Tablet PC. There is an optional Extended
Battery that can be attached to the back of the Motion LE1600 Tablet PC.
The upper center area of the back of the LE1600 Tablet PC includes a small
sliding panel that covers the terminal connections for the Extended Battery.
Caution: Ensure that the sliding panel is open before attempting to
attach the Extended Battery. Otherwise, there may be damage to the
Extended Battery connector.
Both the Standard and the Extended Battery (LE1600 only) will recharge by
using the AC adapter when attached to the Tablet PC.
Charging the Battery. When you connect the Tablet PC to AC power with a
battery attached, the system automatically charges the battery until it
reaches full charge. If two batteries are attached, the primary battery
charges first, followed by the secondary battery. The charging sequence is
staggered to ensure that both batteries become fully charged at nearly the
same time. The standard battery charges to the 80% level, followed by the
