2 BATTERIES AND MAINTENANCE

Rechargeable backup batteries and battery packs are not initially charged. Therefore the initial operation to perform is to charge them. See below.
NOTE
By default, the battery pack is disconnected at the factory to avoid damage due to excessive draining. Annual replacement of rechargeable battery pack avoids possible risks or abnormalities and ensures maximum
CAUTION

2.1 CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK

NOTE
The battery icon on the Taskbar indicates when the battery pack is low. It is possible to recharge the battery pack by connecting the power supply
directly to the Elf. Alternatively, it is also possible to recharge the battery pack by using the single
slot dock, the powered mobile dock, the Ethernet four slot dock or the four slot battery charger.
Moreover recharging is possible by USB Direct connection with the host computer, but with longer charging times and only if the mobile computer is off.
During the charging process the LED positioned at the left side of the display is red constant. Once the charging process has been completed this LED is green constant (see par. 4.5).
If the battery pack is removed from the mobile computer, it can be recharged by inserting it into the rear slot of the single slot dock, the powered mobile dock, the Ethernet four slot dock or the four slot battery charger.

The battery pack autonomy varies according to many factors, such as the frequency of barcode scanning, RF usage, battery life, storage, environmental conditions, etc.
Do not use the Elf until batteries are charged for minimum 4 hours.

instructions.
Even if the storage temperature range is wider, In order to achieve the longest battery life, store the terminal and the spare batteries between 20 to 30 ºC (68 to 86 ºF).
Large batteries must be charged at a temperature ranging from 0° to +40 °C (+32° to +104 °F).
Small batteries must be charged at a temperature ranging from 0° to +45 °C (+32° to +113 °F).

2.2 REPLACING THE BATTERY PACK

To correctly replace the battery pack, proceed as follows.
1. Turn off the Elf.
2. Pull the battery latch down as indicated in the figure below:

3. Remove the battery pack.
4. Install the new battery pack, first insert the bottom side, then the upper (contacts) side of the battery pack into the slot and press it back until the battery latch is automatically closed:

BATTERIES AND MAINTENANCE
Installing, charging and/or any other action should be done by authorized personnel and following this manual.
The battery pack may get hot, explode, ignite, and/or cause
WARNING
serious injury if exposed to abusive conditions. If the battery pack is replaced with an improper type, there is risk
of explosion. Do not place the battery pack in or near a fire or heat; do not
place the battery pack in direct sunlight, or use or store the battery pack inside unventilated areas in hot weather; do not place the battery pack in microwave ovens, dryer, high pressure containers, on induction cookware or similar device. Doing so may cause the battery pack to generate heat, explode or ignite. Using the battery pack in this manner may also result in a loss of performance and a shortened life expectancy.
Use only a Datalogic Mobile approved power supply. The use of an alternative power supply will void the product warranty, may cause product damage and may cause heat, explode or ignite.
The area in which the units are charged should be clear of debris and combustible materials or chemicals.
Do not use the battery pack of this terminal for power devices different from this mobile computer.
Immediately discontinue use of the battery pack if, while using, charging or storing the battery pack, the battery pack emits an unusual smell, feels hot, changes colour or shape, or appears abnormal in any other way.
Do not short-circuit the battery pack contacts connecting the positive terminal and negative terminal. This might happen, for example, when you carry a spare battery pack in your pocket or purse; accidental short–circuiting can occur when a metallic object such as a coin, clip, or pen causes direct connection of the contacts of the battery pack (these look like metal strips on the battery pack). Short–circuiting the terminals may damage the battery pack or the connecting object

WARNING
NOTE
Do not apply voltages to the battery pack contacts. Do not pierce the battery pack with nails, strike it with a hammer,
step on it or otherwise subject it to strong impacts or shocks. Do not disassemble or modify (i.e. bend, crush or deform) the battery pack. The battery pack contains safety and protection devices, which, if damaged, may cause the battery pack to generate heat, explode or ignite.
In case of leakage of liquid from the battery, avoid contact with liquid the skin or eyes. If the contact occurs, immediately wash the affected area with water and consult a doctor.
Do not solder directly onto the battery pack. Do not expose the battery pack to liquids. Avoid any knocks or excessive vibrations. If the device or the
battery is dropped, especially on a hard surface, you should take it to the nearest Authorised Repair Centre for inspection before continuing to use it.
Do not replace the battery pack when the device is turned on. Do not remove or damage the battery pack’s label. Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any part. Battery pack usage by children should be supervised.
Collect and recycle waste batteries separately from the device in comply with European Directive 2006/66/EC, 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and subsequent modifications, US and China regulatory and others laws and regulations about environment.
In order to guarantee an adequate operating autonomy, when replacing the battery pack the mobile computer checks the battery energy level. If the battery is not sufficiently charged, Elf does not turn on (when pressing the ON/OFF key). In this case, either substitute the battery pack with a charged one (sufficiently charged) or insert Elf into a powered cradle or plug it into the direct power supply.

For models using the 802.11g radio, you can find information about the applet for radio configuration: http://www.summitdatacom.com/SCU.htm. To launch this utility you can tap the specific icon if it's visible on the taskbar or:
1. On Windows CE devices, you can open Connections folder or Control Panel from desktop and select the 'Summit Client Utility' icon.
2. On Windows Mobile devices, you can select the menu item: Start­>Programs->Summit and tap the ‘Summit Client Utility’ icon.

NOTE
802.11g radio module is on by default, in order to avoid wasting energy, you can switch it off using the Wireless Communications applet.
Suspending the terminal powers off the 802.11b/g radio and drops the radio connection. When the terminal resumes, depending on the radio power mode and security protocol selected, it may take up to 30 seconds for the 802.11b/g radio driver to re-associate the radio to the network.
Area coverage and radio performance may vary, due to environmental conditions, access points types or interference caused by other devices (microwave ovens, radio transmitters, etc.)
In case of heavy usage the Elf could get warm, this is normal and
does not mean a malfunction.
