Chapter 2 Using the RS30 Mobile Computer
2.1.1. BATTERY STATUS INDICATORS
The main battery pack is the only power source for the mobile computer to work. Therefore,
when the main battery level goes low, you need to replace the battery pack with a charged
one or charge it as soon as possible. Most of all, you should backup important data on a
regular basis.
By checking the battery status icon, you can tell the battery level remaining in the main
battery.
Battery Icon Description

Main battery is fully charged.

Warning:

Once the battery level drops below 15%, the low battery notification will be displayed
on the screen.
(2) Data loss with RAM may occur when battery level is low. Always save data before the

(3) Constant usage of the mobile computer at low battery level can affect battery life.
For maximum performance, recharge the battery periodically to avoid battery drain
out and maintain good battery health.
