Charging System

The Wolf has 2 different battery sources that need charging power. 
There is an internal battery for the Pocket PC and removable batteries 
for the receiver module. The 4 AA Ni-MH receiver batteries may only 
be  charged  using  the  supplied  fast  charger  or  another  comparable 
Ni-MH charger. The Compaq iPAQ internal battery may be charged 
by either plugging in the supplied power transformer or by inserting 
the iPAQ PDA into the supplied charging / data transfer cradle. The 
BVS supplied charger will 

power

 the 

Wolf receiver

 AND 

power and 

charge

 the 

iPAQ PDA

. Batteries for the Wolf receiver (4 AA cells) must 

be charged in the provided charger. See Compaq’s documentation for 
complete charging instructions.

Troubleshooting

If your Wolf is not responding, be sure to check all battery and cable 
connections. Check Compact Flash end of connector that slides into 
top of iPAQ and other end of cable that connects to Wolf receiver

To access batteries under iPAQ:
1. Slide iPAQ back and away from antenna end of receiver. Be sure 
not to pull too hard or crimp the cable in any way. NEVER remove the 
Compact Flash connector from the iPAQ sled unless troubleshooting 
for connectivity issues.

2. Flip over iPAQ exposing the battery compartment on the top of the 
Wolf receiver.

3. Pull up tab on battery cover to expose 4 Ni-MH AA batteries. Change 
these batteries for fresh Ni-MH batteries and repeat steps above in 
reverse order.

• Cannot Open Com Port or System Not Responding – Try restarting 
the application. If the system locks up completely, 

press the small 

reset button

 located at the bottom of your iPAQ. See Compaq’s usage 

instructions for more info on performing a hard reset.

• Wolf software is missing or corrupted -
You can find the Wolf application in the BVS Software CD (red writing) 
included with your Wolf. Re-install your Wolf software.

Users  may  experience  COM  PORT  communication  problems  when 
moving from Bird’s Eye Site Surveyor to Wolf Data Logger in Pocket 
PC 2002. This may be remedied by simply 

pushing the reset switch

 on 

the bottom of the iPAQ.
