Charging the battery
Before using the MC 9190
ex
-NI for the first time, charge the main battery until the amber
charge indicator light remains lit (see Table 4-1: Charging indications). The main battery
fully charges in less than four hours. The MC 9190
ex
-NI can be charged using a cradle,
the CAM, or the MSR with the appropriate power supply.
The MC 9190
ex
-NI is also equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically
charges from the main battery whether or not the MC 9190
ex
-NI is operating or is in
suspend mode. The memory backup battery retains data in memory for at least 30
minutes when the MC 9190
ex
-NI's main battery is removed or fully discharged. When the
MC 9190
ex
-NI is used for the first time or after the memory backup battery has fully
discharged, the memory backup battery requires approximately 15 hours to fully charge.
Do not remove the main battery from the MC 9190
ex
-NI for 15 hours to ensure that the
memory backup battery fully charges. If the main battery is removed from the
MC 9190
ex
-NI or the main battery is fully discharged, the memory backup battery
completely discharges in several hours.
When the main battery reaches a very low battery state, the combination of main battery
and backup battery retains data in memory for at least 72 hours.
Note
Do not remove the main battery within the first 15 hours of use. If the main battery is
removed before the backup battery is fully charged, data may be lost.
