2 BATTERIES AND MAINTENANCE
NOTE
Rechargeable backup batteries and battery packs are not initially
charged. Therefore the initial operation to perform is to charge them.
See below.
CAUTION
By default, the battery pack is disconnected at the factory to avoid
damage due to excessive draining.
Annual replacement of rechargeable battery pack avoids possible
risks or abnormalities and ensures maximum performance.
2.1 CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
NOTE
The battery pack autonomy varies according to many factors, such
as the frequency of barcode scanning, RF usage, battery life,
storage, environmental conditions, etc.
The battery icon on the Taskbar indicates when the battery pack is low.
You may recharge your battery pack by connecting a standard Micro-USB wall
charger directly to the Skorpio X3 Micro-USB charging port.
The Micro-USB port can also be used to charge the Skorpio X3 battery pack from
any self-powered USB hub or USB port on a computer, but only when the Skorpio is
suspended.
Alternatively, it is also possible to recharge the battery pack by inserting the Skorpio
X3 into the single slot dock or the Ethernet four slot dock.
CAUTION
Don’t insert the wall charger into the micro-USB port when the
Skorpio X3 is inserted into the dock.
