7.4 . Charging the B40 batter y
The MobileXL POS system displays the message “Charge
battery!“ when the total charge of B40 batteries inserted
in the MobileXL POS system is seven percent. You should
charge the battery when this message appears on the dis-
play. The MobileXL POS system will be switched off if you
ignore the message.
• Charge the B40 battery as described in chapter 6.2.1
“Inserting B40 batteries to the MobileXL charging- and
docking station and charging” on page 61 or in chap-
ter 6.2.3 “Inserting MobileXL POS system to MobileXL
charging- and docking station and charging B40 bat-
tery” on page 66 .
i
The charging capacity of the B40
battery
is reduced with each charging
cycle because the battery cells wear
out. This reduces the time during which
you can use the MobileXL POS system.
The battery has to be charged in shorter
intervals
.
i
After approx. 32 charging cycles a
B40 battery is re-calibrated. This
means that the battery is first
discharged completely and then
charged again. This re-calibration
prolongs the battery life. A battery
re-calibration takes 10 to 17 hours.
During this process the battery should
not be removed from the MobileXL
charging- and docking station.
i
Always charge and discharge the
B40 battery completely to preserve
the charging capacity for as long as
possible
.
