Battery Charging
Use the mobile computer cradles, cables and spare battery chargers to charge the mobile computer main battery.
The main battery can be charged before insertion into the mobile computer or after it is installed. There are two main batteries for
the MC3000, the Standard Battery and the Extended Life Battery. Either battery can be used, but the Extended Life Battery requires
a different Strap/Door Assembly. Use one of the spare battery chargers to charge the main battery (out of the mobile computer) or
one of the cradles to charge the main battery while it is installed in the mobile computer.
Before using the mobile computer for the first time, fully charge the main battery. When the main battery is fully charged, the amber
Charge LED Indicator remains lit. For more information see Table 1-2 on page 1-9. Charge time for the Standard Battery is usually less
than four hours and charge time for the Extended Life Battery is usually less than six hours.
The mobile computer is equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from the fully-charged main battery.
When the mobile computer is used for the first time, the backup battery requires approximately 15 hours to fully charge. This is also
true any time the backup battery is discharged which occurs when the main battery is removed for several hours. The backup battery
retains data in memory for at least 30 minutes after the mobile computer main battery is removed. When the mobile computer reaches
very low battery state, the combination of main battery and backup battery retains data in memory for at least 72 hours.
Do not remove the main battery within the first 15 hours of use. If the main battery is removed before the backup battery
is fully charged, data may be lost.
Batteries must be charged within the 32° to 104° F (0° to +40° C) ambient temperature range.
The following accessories can be used to charge batteries:
Cradles (and a power supply):
Single Slot Serial/USB Cradle
