Introduction to Your MobilePro Power System
Using MobilePro’s Power Sources
The MobilePro is powered by one of two power systems: battery power
(main and backup batteries) or AC power.
Connect your MobilePro to a standard 110 volt AC socket using the AC
adapter that ships with your unit. The battery systems recharge when the
unit is connected to an AC power source.
CAUTION
Use only the MobilePro 880 battery (MC/BA11A) in the
MobilePro 880 system (MC/R730A). Do not use the
MobilePro 800 battery (MC/BA11) in the MobilePro
880 system. Use of the MobilePro 800 battery in the
MobilePro 880 system may cause battery damage
and/or system data loss.
Note:
Before using the system for the first time,
allow ten hours for both the main and the backup
batteries to fully charge, even if the indicator on the
front of the MobilePro lights green before the full ten
hours are passed. You must repeat this full ten hour
charge cycle, only if the backup battery becomes fully
discharged.
To protect your data, do not use the system until the
backup battery is charged. Recharge the battery
whenever the battery charging LED lights amber.
Main Battery
The main battery is a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery pack that provides
power to operate the unit when it is not connected to an AC power source.
It is advisable to operate the unit on AC power, whenever possible, to
maintain a fully charged main battery, ready for mobile operation.
Do not remove the main battery from the MobilePro unit for an
extended period of time.
