IM580 Scanner
• Protect the scanner and its accessories from excessive heat, cold
and moisture.
• If the scanner fails to read the barcode labels try wiping off the front of the
reader of the scanner with a soft cloth.
• Before first use, please make sure scanner is fully charged. The LCD
display on the scanner will show battery level.
Removing the Battery
• To remove the main battery, press down on the release button while
pushing out the cover on the back of the unit.
We suggest that the battery
not be removed, if possible.
Charging
When starting to operate the IM580, the main battery must be fully charged
before the first use. The IM580 is equipped with a 3.7V 600mAH Lithium-Ion
battery. It takes 8 hours to fully charge the main battery when empty. We suggest
users recharge the battery regularly after long hours of use. The icon shown on
the lower right screen of the menu indicates the current battery level. The battery
can be charged with the cradle provided by Imperial or the serial/USB cable
provided.
