At the top of the screen in the title bar, a permanently
displayed icon (top right) gives a rough indication of the
battery status. When the battery is high, the battery icon
looks like this:
•
At any time you can read more in detail the battery status
by selecting

(see screen example).

When the remaining charge drops below 1/3rd of full
charge, you will see the message “Main Battery Low”
prompting you to replace or recharge the battery. Tap
Dismiss
in the task bar. You may continue using the
receiver for a while.
You will also see this icon in the title bar:
•
About an hour later, with only about 1/5th of remaining
charge, a new message will pop up: “Main Battery Very
Low”. Tap
Dismiss
in the task bar to continue using the
receiver. Ashtech however recommends that you turn off
the receiver and replace the battery. Place the low battery
at the back of the docking station at the office so that it
can be quickly recharged.
At this stage, if you persist in using the receiver with its
low battery, it won’t be long before the receiver is forced
to switch to Suspend mode, meaning the battery is no
longer charged enough to ensure proper operation of the
receiver. Ashtech recommends you do not go that far in
the use of the internal battery as this may irreversibly
damage it.
In case of long-time storage, remember Li-Ion batteries must
always be recharged regularly, about every six months. This is
to prevent irreversible damage of the batteries.
GPRS Connection
Using the Internal
Modem
Using the internal modem requires that you purchase a SIM
card from an Internet Service Provider (ISP) and you get some
information from this provider to use it. With the SIM card
inserted in the dedicated slot and the built-in Phone function
enabled, the receiver will be able to perform an Internet
connection via that provider.
