Main Battery Charging
To charge a device:
1. Insert the device into a slot to begin charging.
2. Ensure the device is seated properly.
The device’s Charging/Notification LED indicates the status of the battery charging in the device. The standard
battery charges from fully depleted to 90% in less than three hours. The extended battery charges from fully
depleted to 90% in less than three and a half hours.
12
MC2200/MC2700 Quick Start Guide
NOTE: In many cases the 90% charge provides plenty of charge for daily use.
To achieve the best fast charging results use only Zebra charging accessories and batteries. Charge batteries at room
temperature with the device in sleep mode.

The Spare Battery Charging LED on the cup indicates the status of the spare battery charging. The standard
battery charges from fully depleted to 90% in less than three hours. The extended battery charges from fully
depleted to 90% in less than three and a half hours.
NOTE: In many cases the 90% charge provides plenty of charge for daily use.
To achieve the best fast charging results use only Zebra charging accessories and batteries. Charge batteries at room
temperature with the device in sleep mode.

Charging Temperature
Charge batteries in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). The device or accessory always performs
battery charging in a safe and intelligent manner. At higher temperatures (e.g. approximately +37°C (+98°F))
the device or accessory may for brief periods of time alternately enable and disable battery charging to keep
the battery at acceptable temperatures. The device or accessory indicates when charging is disabled due to
abnormal temperatures via its LED and a notification appears on the display.

Scanning
The device offers the following data capture options:
• SE4100
Scanning with Internal Imager
To read a barcode, a scan-enabled app is required. The device contains the DataWedge app that allows the
user to enable the imager, decode the barcode data, and display the barcode content.
To scan with the internal imager:
1. Ensure that an app is open on the device and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field).
2. Point the exit window on the top of the device at a barcode.
3. Press and hold the scan button.
The white laser aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming.
NOTE: When the device is in Picklist mode, the imager does not decode the barcode until the crosshair or aiming dot touches
the barcode.
MC2200/MC2700 Quick Start Guide
4. Ensure the barcode is within the area formed by the crosshairs in the aiming pattern. The aiming dot
increases visibility in bright lighting conditions.

Figure 2 Pick List Mode with Multiple Barcodes
5. The Data Capture LED lights green and a beep sounds, by default, to indicate the barcode was decoded
successfully.
6. Release the scan button.
NOTE: Imager decoding usually occurs instantaneously. The device repeats the steps required to take a digital picture (im-
age) of a poor or difficult barcode as long as the scan button remains pressed.
7. The barcode content data displays in the text field.
