Charging the Batteries
To charge the battery, simply insert the Gryphon into the base.
When the scanner is fully seated in the cradle, it will sound a
“chirp” to indicate that the cradle has detected the scanner
connection.
The LEDs on the base (shown in
) will indicate the sta-
tus of the battery.
