Caution:
User maintenance consists of cleaning, periodic tightening of fasteners and the like. For safety purposes, any and all
servicing other than the procedures detailed in the Maintenance section of this manual must be performed by qualified
service personnel only. For all service items, please contact InterMetro Customer Service.
Caution:
Do not operate an MPS-3111 series Power Supply or associated Metro
either has received a severe impact, been knocked over, fallen down stairs, or otherwise been physically damaged.
Please have a qualified service person inspect both the Mobile Computing Workstation and the Power Supply for any
performance or safety hazard prior to putting it back into service.
Caution:
Ensure that the AC power supply cord is located and secured so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or
otherwise subjected to damage or stress. Please secure the AC power cord plug in the retaining clips provided on the
Mobile Computing Workstation when it is unplugged from the AC outlet in order to prevent accidental tripping and
physical damage to the cord plug or electrical insulation.
To prevent damage to any cords or connectors when disconnecting, always grasp and pull by the connector and not
the cord.
Do not operate the Power Supply or Mobile Computing Workstation with damaged cords or connectors. Please
replace the damaged component immediately. Contact InterMetro Customer Service for replacement parts and
service.
Caution:
To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the Power Supply AC cord from an AC outlet and switch the ON/Extended
Storage Switch to the Extended Storage (OFF) position before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Turning off
computers or disconnecting the AC power cord alone will not reduce the risk of electric shock because the Power
Supply is internally powered by a battery.
Warning: Risk of Electric Shock
The AC power cord is the only means to disconnect the Power Supply and Metro
Workstation from the AC power grid (mains). The ON/Extended Storage Switch on the Power Supply does not
disconnect from main power.
On the other side, the Power Supply employs a Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) battery to provide mobile DC output power.
Low voltage (10-16 VDC) DC power is available from the Power Supply even when the AC cord is disconnected from
an AC outlet. To remove DC power, put the ON/Extended Storage Switch in the Extended Storage (OFF) position
and unplug the Power Supply from the AC outlet.
DANGER: Risk of Explosion
The Mobile Computing Workstation and the Power Supply are not for use in hazardous (classified) locations. Do not
use the Mobile Computing Workstation, nor recharge the Power Supply battery, in oxygen enriched areas; areas
where flammable anesthetics are used or stored; or any other hazardous, classified location.

Introduction
Mobile Rechargeable Power Supply
The MetroTM MPS-3111 Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) Power Supply is a rechargeable power source
for the Metro
TM
Series Mobile Computing Workstations. The MetroTM SLA Power Supply is a
fully automatic power supply charger system with a nominal DC output voltage of 12 Volts (V)
and a battery capacity of 26 Amp-hours (Ah). When it is plugged into an AC outlet, it supplies
the Mobile Computing Workstation system equipment while also charging the sealed lead acid
battery. When unplugged from the outlet, the power supply switches automatically to supply the
workstation equipment from the internal SLA rechargeable battery. The power supply is
designed for continuous operation and service is not interrupted by plugging in or unplugging
the power supply
