LaserTraq 9
Batteries and Cables
The LaserTraq is a battery powered device, designed to use either three
standard AA size alkaline batteries, or a NiMh (Nickel Metal Hydride)
rechargeable battery pack. You can change the type of batteries you use
at any time.
To install or change the batteries, turn the LaserTraq over so that the
keyboard is facing down. The battery compartment is in the bottom
section of the case, and can be accessed by removing the security screw
and sliding the cover off. If you don’t have a screwdriver handy, you’ll
find that a five or ten cent coin is an ideal substitute.
On the side of the battery door, next to the screw and on the opposite side
of the door, there are raised markings. Using your thumb and forefinger,
press inwards on these raised marks, then pull the door back about five
millimetres - you may find it helps to press down on the battery door near
the IR sensor, with your other hand.
Once you’ve slid the door open about five millimetres, you can lift the
battery door off to reveal the battery compartment. With the door open,
the batteries may be replaced, but make sure you observe the marked
polarity – the positive end of the batteries points towards the laser beam
end of the unit.
While you have the battery compartment open, you should also note the
coin-shaped silver CR2032 Lithium battery – this is the memory backup
battery. In the distant future, you may be told by the LaserTraq to
replace this battery, so now you know where it is. To avoid losing the
contents of memory, you must never remove both the main batteries and
the backup battery at the same time.
You must replace all three batteries at the same time – do not mix old and
new batteries. We recommend alkaline batteries for the longest operating
life, but standard AA batteries can be used if needed.
When you replace the battery door, don’t forget to do up the security
screw again!
While you’re looking at the back of the LaserTraq, you’ll see a dark red
“window”, and 2 silver pads. The window is the Infrared Sensor that the
LaserTraq uses to transfer data between it and the cradle/charger, while
the silver pads are the battery charging contacts used by the cradle. You
should also take heed of the laser light warning label, which cautions you
not to stare into the laser beam.
You might have also noticed the narrow connector near the wrist strap. If
you are using the Line Charger or Direct Connect Cable, this connector is
where they attach. If you have a Cradle/Charger, you’ll only need to use
