Risk of Electric Shock - The AC power cord is the only means to disconnect
the power supply and AccessPoint workstation from the AC power grid
(mains). The ON switch on the power supply does not disconnect from main
power.
On the other side, the power supply employs a Li-Nano, SLA, LiFe batteries
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 switch in the (OFF)
position.
The maximum design load (safe working load limit) for the AccessPoint
workstation is 5 lbs.(2.2 kg.).

Getting Started with the Workstation
Unpacking
The AccessPoint workstation will arrive fully assembled and fully functional
at the customer’s site (most accessories do not ship assembled to the
workstation). After cutting the strapping bands, lift the top of the box over
the workstation. In order to avoid any injury, two (2) people should lift the
workstation from the padding blocks.
Inspection
After the AccessPoint workstation has been unpacked, inspect the unit for
any shipping damage. If there is any damage, contact InterMetro Customer
Service immediately.
Shipment of Power Supply
CAUTION
Before placing the Power Supply (Li-Nano, SLA, LiFe) into
service on a AccessPoint workstation, the power supply
batteries may need to be connected. Depending on the
shipment, they may or may not be connected due to USDOT
and IATA regulations.
The Power Supply is available in 3 battery chemistry options. Depending on
the battery chemistry, the preparation of the shipment is different.
Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery (LiFe)
The LiFe Battery can be connected or disconnected and requires a fully
regulated Class 9 shipment in any shipping mode. The shipper must be
certified for Li-Ion Class 9 shipments. The power supply must be shipped
per “UN3481, Lithium ion batteries contained in equipment” on cargo
aircraft only.
The power supply contains one battery pack. Ratings below given per
battery pack:

SLA
The SLA battery is not considered a Hazardous Material (Dangerous Goods)
and there is no restriction on shipping the SLA batteries.
Lithium Iron Nanophosphate Battery (Li-Nano)
Non Class 9 Shipment
In the USA the Li-Nano batteries can be disconnected from the power supply
for a regular Ground shipment. The shipping container must have the
following marking:
Class 9 Shipment
Outside the USA in any shipping mode and air or sea transport inside the
US, the power supply must be shipped as fully regulated Class 9 (Hazardous
Material / Dangerous Goods). In this shipping mode the batteries can be
connected or disconnected. The shipper must be certified for Li-Ion Class 9
shipments. The power supply must be shipped per “UN3481 Lithium ion
batteries contained in equipment” on cargo aircraft only.
Typically, a power supply contains two battery packs. Ratings below given

CAUTION
Only qualified service personnel should perform the
following procedure for connecting the power supply
batteries.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to any cords or connectors when
disconnecting, always grasp and pull by the connector and

Charge Power Supply Battery
NOTE
The workstation’s electrical connections to the monitor, keyboard and
technology tray must be made per the AccessPoint Workstation Wiring
Diagram. Contact Metro Service for the most current wiring diagram.
Before placing an AccessPoint workstation into service for the first time
with the Li-Nano, SLA, LiFe power supply, the power supply battery should
be initially charged at least 8 hours. To charge the battery, plug the coiled
AC power cord into an AC outlet and put the ON/OFF switch into the “ON”
position which is located on the back of power supply as shown below.
Revision 1.0Metro® AccessPoint™ Mobile Computing System Operator Manual2-7
LO1-530
Getting Started: Getting Started with the Workstation
In the “ON” position, the power supply provides power to the AccessPoint
workstation. If the workstation is not being used for an extended period of
time, the ON/OFF switch should be put in the OFF position. The switch
position disconnects the battery from any internal or external equipment and
avoids deep discharges of the battery, which can cause damage to the
battery.
WARNING
Risk of Electric Shock - The power supply employs a
Lithium Iron Nano-Phosphate (Li-Nano) battery to provide
mobile DC output power. Low voltage (11-15V) 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/OFF Switch in the “OFF” position.
NOTE
After the initial charge, the charge time from a completely discharged
battery is typically 2 hours in fan mode and 3 hours in fan less mode
with LiFe and Li-Nano and 4 hours for SLA regardless of fan mode.
NOTE
If the Power Supply has been switched to “OFF” for more than 1 week,
connect the workstation to AC to wake up the power supply before.
