NOTE
Rechargeable battery packs are not initially charged. Therefore the
first operation to perform is to charge them. See par. 5.1.
5.1 CHARGING THE BATTERIES
The battery autonomy varies according to factors, such as the frequency of barcode
scanning, the RF usage and of BIOS settings.
When the batteries are low, the red LED positioned beneath the left lower corner of
the display blinks and a warning acoustic signal is emitted.
It is possible to recharge the batteries by placing the DL9600 in its cradle or by using
the DL9600 cable (see par. 2.1.2).
The charging process is signaled by a bi-colored charging status LED positioned
beneath the right lower corner of the display (see par. 4.6).
If the battery pack is removed from the terminal, it can be recharged by inserting it
into the multicharger or in the recharging slot available in the cradle.
NOTE
If the batteries are new or have not been recharged for a long time,
it is necessary to perform two or three charging and discharging
cycles (complete use) before they can reach their maximum charge
capability.
The maximum time required to recharge a completely run-down
battery pack is about 2 hours for NiMh batteries and 5 hours for
Li-Ion batteries.
