Getting Started
In order to start using the wearable terminal for the first time:
•Install the main battery
•Charge the main battery and backup battery
•Install the wearable terminal onto the wrist mount
•Install an optional scanner
•Start the wearable terminal.
NOTE The main battery can be charged before or after installation into the wearable terminal. Use the Single Slot USB cradle or Four Slot Spare Battery Charger to charge the main battery before installation, or the Single Slot USB cradle or Four Slot Ethernet cradle to charge the main battery after installation.
Installing and Removing the Main Battery
Installing the Main Battery
Before using the wearable terminal, install a lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery by placing the battery into the wearable terminal as shown in Figure 1-4.
NOTE Ensure the battery is fully inserted. An audible click can be heard as the battery is fully inserted. A partially inserted battery may result in unintentional data loss.
When a battery is installed in a wearable terminal for the first time the wearable terminal boots and powers on automatically.
Figure 1-4 Installing the Main Battery
1 - 6 WT4070/90 Wearable Terminal User Guide
Charging the Battery
Charging the Main Battery and Memory Backup Battery
Before using the wearable terminal for the first time, charge the main battery until the amber Charge Status LED remains lit (see Table 1-3 on page 1-6 for charge status indications).
The wearable terminal is equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from the main battery whether or not the wearable terminal is operating or is in suspend mode. The memory backup battery retains data in memory for at least 30 minutes when the wearable terminal's main battery is removed or fully discharged. When the wearable terminal is used for the first time or after the memory backup battery has fully discharged, the memory backup battery requires approximately 15 hours to fully charge. Do not remove the main battery from the wearable terminal for 15 hours to ensure that the memory backup battery fully charges. If the main battery is removed from the wearable terminal or the main battery is fully discharged, the memory backup battery completely discharges in several hours.
When the wearable terminal reaches a very low battery state, the combination of main battery and backup battery retains data in memory for at least 24 hours.
NOTE 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.
Charge the wearable terminal with an installed main battery using either the Single Slot USB cradle or the Four Slot Ethernet cradle.
To charge the main battery:
1.Ensure the cradle used to charge the main battery is connected to the appropriate power source.
2.Insert the wearable terminal into a cradle.
3.The wearable terminal starts to charge automatically. The amber Charge Status LED lights to indicate the charge status. See Table 1-3 for charging indications. The standard capacity battery fully charges in less than four hours.

Charging Spare Batteries
Use the following accessories to charge spare batteries:
•Single Slot USB Cradle
•Four Slot Spare Battery Charger.
To charge a spare battery:
1.Ensure the accessory used to charge the spare battery is connected to the appropriate power source.
2.Insert the spare battery into the accessory’s spare battery charging slot with the charging contacts facing down (over the charging pins) and gently press down on the battery to ensure proper contact.
3.The battery starts to charge automatically. The amber charge LED on the accessory lights to show the charge status. See Chapter 3, Accessories for accessory charge LED indicator definitions.
The standard capacity battery fully charges in less than four hours.
Removing the Main Battery
To remove the main battery:
1.Prior to removing the battery, ensure that the wearable terminal is in suspend mode. If the wearable terminal is not in suspend mode, press the Power button to place the wearable terminal in suspend mode.
2.Press the battery release button. The battery partially ejects from the wearable terminal.
3.Remove the battery from the wearable terminal.

Connecting a Scanner
The RS309 and RS409 scanners can be used with the wearable terminal. Refer to RS309 Scanner on page 3-9 and RS409 Scanner on page 3-7 for procedures for connecting the scanner to the wearable terminal.
Starting the Wearable Terminal
Press the Power button to turn on the wearable terminal. If the wearable terminal does not power on, perform a cold boot. See Resetting the Wearable Terminal on page 2-14.
NOTE When a battery is fully inserted in a wearable terminal for the first time, upon the wearable terminal’s first power up, the device cold boots and powers on automatically.
When the wearable terminal is powered on for the first time, it initializes its system. The Symbol splash screen (Figure 1-10) appears for a short period of time followed by the Start Up window.
