Installing the Main Battery
Before using the mobile computer, install a lithium-ion battery by sliding the battery into the mobile computer as
shown in

When a battery is fully inserted in a mobile computer for the first time, upon the mobile computer’s first power
up, the device boots and powers on automatically.

Charging the Battery
Charging the Main Battery and Memory Backup Battery
Before using the mobile computer for the first time, charge the main battery until the amber charge indicator
light remains lit (see
Table 1-2 on page 1-7 for charge status indications). The main battery fully charges in less
than four hours. The mobile computer can be charged using a cradle, the CAM, or the MSR with the
appropriate power supply.
The mobile computer is also equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from the
main battery whether or not the mobile computer is operating or is in suspend mode. The memory backup
battery retains data in memory for at least 30 minutes when the mobile computer's main battery is removed or
fully discharged. When the mobile computer is used for the first time or after the memory backup battery has
fully discharged, the memory backup battery requires approximately 15 hours to fully charge. Do not remove
the main battery from the mobile computer for 15 hours to ensure that the memory backup battery fully
charges. If the main battery is removed from the mobile computer or the main battery is fully discharged, the
memory backup battery completely discharges in several hours.
NOTE Ensure the battery is fully inserted. Two audible clicks can be heard as the battery is fully inserted. A
partially inserted battery may result in unintentional data loss.
