Charging the Main Battery and Memory Backup Battery
Before using the MC75A for the first time, charge the main battery until the amber Charging/Battery Status LED
remains lit (see Table 1-2 on page 1-7 for charge status indications). To charge the MC75A, use a cable or a cradle
with the appropriate power supply. For information about the accessories available for the MC75A, see Chapter 7,

The MC75A is equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from the fully-charged main
battery. When using the MC75A for the first time, the backup battery requires approximately 36 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 RAM data in memory for at least 15 minutes (at room
temperature) when the MC75A's main battery is removed. When the MC75A reaches a very low battery state, the
combination of main battery and backup battery retains RAM data in memory for at least 48 hours.
To charge the main battery, use either a charging cable or a cradle. For cable and cradle setup and charging
procedures refer to the MC75A Integrator Guide.

To charge the main battery:
1. Connect the charging accessory to the appropriate power source.
2. Insert the MC75A into a cradle or attach to a cable. The MC75A begins charging. The Charging/Battery Status

Charging Spare Batteries
See Chapter 7, Accessories for information on using accessories to change spare batteries.
Charging Temperature
Charge batteries in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). Charging is intelligently controlled by the
MC75A.
LED Charge Indications

Indication
MC75A is not inserted correctly in the cradle or connected to a power source.
Charger/cradle is not powered.
MC75A is charging.
Note: When the battery is initially inserted in the MC75A, the amber LED flashes
once if the battery power is low or the battery is not fully inserted.
Charging error, e.g.:
•
Temperature is too low or too high.
•
Charging has gone on too long without completion (typically eight hours).
To accomplish this, for small periods of time, the MC75A or accessory alternately enables and disables battery
charging to keep the battery at acceptable temperatures. The MC75A or accessory indicates when charging is
disabled due to abnormal temperatures via its LED. See Table 1-2.
Powering On the MC75A
Press the Power button to turn on the MC75A. If the MC75A does not power on perform a warm boot. See
Resetting the MC75A on page 2-17.
When turning the MC75A on for the first time, the splash screen displays for about a minute as the MC75A
initializes its flash file system, then the calibration window appears. Note that these windows also appear upon cold
boot.
NOTE When the MC75A powers up after inserting a battery for the first time, the device boots and powers on
automatically.
Calibrating the Screen
To calibrate the screen so the cursor on the touch screen aligns with the tip of the stylus:
1. Remove the stylus from its holder on the back of the MC75A.
2. Tap the screen to begin calibration.
3. Carefully press and briefly hold the tip of stylus on the center of each target that appears on the screen.
4. Repeat as the target moves around the screen.

The temperature notification system implements three levels of notification when the temperature within the battery
exceeds specific temperature thresholds:
•
Level 1: Temperature Watch; this level is similar to main battery low warning. It indicates that the battery
temperature has reached the first threshold level. The user should move to an environment within proper
operating temperature.
•
Level 2: Temperature Warning; this level is similar to main battery very low warning. It indicates the battery
temperature has reached the second threshold level. The user should stop using the MC75A.
