Psion Teklogix CH4000 Quick Reference Guide
3. Desktop Docking Station Operation
3.1 Charging The Ikôn Battery
The CH4000 supplies DC power to enable the Ikôn internal fast
charger. Normally, it takes 2.5 to 3.0 hours to charge the Ikôn
5000 mAh battery.
When installed in the dock, the Ikôn battery charge LED will illumi-
nate to indicate the unit has external power and may charge the inter-
nal battery. The Ikôn charge indication follows the same convention
as the charger's spare battery indicator (see Figure 2.1 on page 5).
Note:
Battery charging continues whether the Ikôn is switched on
or off.
3.2 Charging The Spare Battery
• Install the battery in the rear slot of the CH4000 with the con-
nector facing to the right. Slide the battery in and down to
mate the connector.
• The CH4000 spare battery LED lights up immediately.
During charge the LED will be flashing green.
• When the battery capacity reaches 95%, the LED turns
solid green.
• The charge stops when the battery is fully charged and the
LED remains green. There is no risk of overcharge if the bat-
tery remains in the charge slot.
A full charge will take 2.5 to 3.0 hours for a 5000 mAh battery.
