MAINTENANCE AND DIAGNOSTICS
7.1.
CHARGING THE BATTERIES
The duration of the battery charge varies according to many factors, such as the
frequency of barcode scans, the type of laser scanner used on the F7400 terminal.
Recharging should be performed after using the terminal until the batteries are
completely run down.
To recharge the batteries, insert the F7400 terminal into the cradle.
If the batteries are new or have not been recharged for a long time, you will have
to perform two or three charge and discharge cycles (complete use) before they are
capable of reaching their greatest charge capacity.
Rechargeable battery packs (NiMH) are not initially charged.
Therefore the first operation to perform is to charge them in the
appropriate cradle. See paragraphs 7.2 and 4.1.
If the F7400 terminal will not be used for a few days, we
recommend that the battery pack be removed from the F7400
terminal to prevent the battery from being damaged from
over-discharging.
The maximum time required to recharge a completely run-down
battery pack is about 2,5 hours.
