Battery Removal/Insertion/Charging
A 1340mA/H Lithium Ion rechargeable battery with built in safety features is supplied with the PT-101.
To insert the SIM card and to turn the PT-101 off (for shipping and travel) the battery must be removed.
The instructions that follow will explain the steps to remove or replace the battery.
NOTE:
The PT-101 cannot be used without a battery. Using the PT-101 with only USB power is
not supported.
3.1
Removing the Battery
To access the battery the battery door on the bottom of the PT-101 must be removed. Firmly press the
battery cover latch and pull the battery door open. To remove the battery, pull up on the battery using the
thumb latch until the retention clips release the battery. Slide the battery away from the contacts and
remove it from the PT-101.
NOTE:
If the PT-101 was not preprogrammed at the CES Wireless Technologies factory then it
may have a red protective cover over the terminals. Peel the protective cover off of the battery to
expose the terminals and discard it.
3.2
Inserting the Battery
With the battery cover removed, align the contacts on the battery with the contacts of the PT-101. Hold
the battery at a 45 degree angle and insert the contact end first. Push the battery towards the contacts and
then down firmly until it is fully seated. Replace the battery door. Ensure that the latch is locked.
3.3
Charging the Battery
NOTE:
Before using for the first time the PT-101 must be charged for twelve hours.
The PT-101 is charged using a standard USB cable (CES P/N ###) connected to a desktop personal
computer.
NOTE:
To charge the PT-101 the PC must be turned on and must not be in standby/hibernate
mode.
The PT-101 can also be charged in a vehicle with the option vehicle power adapter (CES P/N ###).
NOTE:
On many vehicles the accessory jack does not provide power unless the vehicle ignition
is on.
Last, the PT-101 can be charged using AC power with the optional AC Power Adapter (CES P/N: ###).
To charge the PT-101, connect one end of the USB cable to the USB jack on the PT-101. Connect the
other end to your power source. While the PT-101 is charging, the ON LED will be on solid and the BAT
LED will flash.
The PT-101 is fully charged when the BAT LED no longer flashes while connected to a power source.
