1 - 4 Workabout Pro4 (Windows Embedded Hand-Held 6.5) User Manual
Battery packs shipped from the factory are charged to approximately 40% and must be fully charged prior to
use. Batteries can be charged using a variety of chargers and docking stations. For detailed information, see
“Battery Details” on page 2-3 .
Replacing the Battery Pack
Assuming the default power saving parameters and battery reserve level have not been altered, a battery can
be removed for up to 4 minutes without losing data. Beyond 4 minutes, the hand-held may reboot.
Removing the Battery Pack
• If your unit is equipped with a hand strap, unhook it from the base of the battery.
• Turn the latches at the bottom of the battery to unlock the battery cover. Remove the battery.
Installing the Battery Pack
• Insert the charged battery into the unit making certain that the contacts on the battery match those on the
hand-held. Replace the battery cover and lock both latches to secure the battery in place.
• If your computer is equipped with a hand strap, re-attach the clip to the slot at the base of the battery.
• Switch the unit on (see “Switching the Workabout Pro4 On and Off” on page 1-4 ).
Switching the Workabout Pro4 On and Off
Follow the instructions below for your Workabout Pro4.
Switching the Workabout Pro4 On
• Press and hold the [Power] button down for at least one second.
When the unit is turned off, normally it automatically enters a power-saving, “suspend” state. When the Worka-
bout Pro4 is switched on from the suspend state, operation resumes within a few seconds in the screen in
which you were working prior to turning the computer off.
IMPORTANT
Always switch the unit off before changing the battery (see “Switch-
ing the Workabout Pro4 On and Off” on page 1-4 ). However,
assuming the default power saving parameters and battery reserve
level have not been altered, battery swap time is a minimum of
minutes — you will not lose data if the battery is replaced within this
time frame.
NOTE
If you are using a docking station or an external power supply, you can insert an
uncharged battery and use the device while the battery charges.
IMPORTANT
If your Workabout Pro4 fails to power up, consider the following trouble-
shooting options:
The battery may be overheated (>60C°), a non-Motorola battery may be
installed, or the battery may have fallen below the configured Suspend
Threshold. See
“Suspend Threshold and Estimated Battery Backup” on
page 4-10 for details.
To switch on the hand-held, you will need to replace the overheated battery.
However, if you supply AC power to the Workabout Pro4 with a battery that
falls below the configured Suspend Threshold, the unit will switch on.
