CA10 Charging Indications

Saving battery power

Battery life depends on the signal strength of the wireless network, temperature and features you use.

Ensure that the CA10 associates with the wireless network as quickly as possible.

Use the headset or earpiece when possible.

Optimize the wireless network for voice over IP operation (see your access point user manual).

Remain within the coverage range of your wireless system. When a CA10 is out of range of an access point, 
radio power consumption may be higher, reducing runtime / battery life.

Powering on / off 

Turning on

To turn on the CA10:

Simultaneously hold down the 

PTT

 and 

Private Reply 

buttons for about half a second. During initialization, the 

Status LED lights steady amber for five seconds followed by a brief red / amber flash. This is followed by a "start 
tune".

Turning off

To turn off the CA10:

Simultaneously press and hold the 

PTT

 and 

Private Reply 

buttons. Release the buttons as soon as the CA10 starts 

playing the power-down tone sequence. The CA10 beeps four times and turns off, playing a “turn off tune”.

 

Status LED

(on CA10)

Indications

Steady green

Charge complete and ready for use.

Steady amber

Power-up state (battery is getting ready to charge).

Blinking amber

Charge in progress.

Steady red

Pre-charge state (brief condition prior to active charging).

NOTE

The CA10 powers on automatically when placed onto the cradle.

NOTE

If the CA10 is in an abnormal state, turning off the CA10 may require holding the 

PTT

 and 

Private Reply 

buttons for 10 seconds before releasing. In such case, the CA10 turns off without 

playing a “turn off tune”.
