Charging the Battery

CAUTION Ensure that you follow the guidelines for battery safety described in Battery Safety Guidelines on page
6-2.
Charging the Main Battery
Before using the MC65 for the first time, charge the main battery until the amber Charging/Battery Status LED remains lit (see Table 1-1 on page 1-6 for charge status indications). To charge the MC65, use a cable or a cradle with the appropriate power supply. For information about the accessories available for the MC65, see
Chapter 2, Accessories.
The MC65 is equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from the fully-charged main battery. When using the MC65 for the first time, the backup battery requires approximately 40 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 MC65’s main battery is removed. When the MC65 reaches a very low battery state, the combination of main battery and backup battery retains RAM data in memory for at least 36 hours.
For cable and cradle setup and charging procedures refer to the MC65 Integrator Guide.
USB Charging Cable
Charge Only Cable
Single Slot USB Cradle
To charge the main battery:
1. Connect the charging accessory to the appropriate power source.
Four Slot Charge Only Cradle
Four Slot Ethernet Cradle.
1 - 6 MC65 Integrator Guide
2. Insert the MC65 into a cradle or attach to a cable. The MC65 begins charging. The Charging/Battery Status
LED blinks amber while charging, then turns solid amber when fully charged. See Table 1-1 for charging indications.
The 3600 mAh battery charges in less than six hours.

Status LED
Indication
MC65 is not inserted correctly in the cradle or connected to a power source. Charger/cradle is not powered.
MC65 is charging.
Note: When the battery is initially inserted in the MC65, 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).
Charging Spare Batteries
See Chapter 2, 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). Note that charging is intelligently controlled by the MC65.
To accomplish this, for small periods of time, the MC65 or accessory alternately enables and disables battery charging to keep the battery at acceptable temperatures. The MC65 or accessory indicates when charging is disabled due to abnormal temperatures via its LED. See Table 1-1.

Powering On the MC65

Press the Power button to turn on the MC65. The splash screen displays for about a minute as the MC65 initializes its flash file system, then the calibration window appears.
Calibrating the Screen
NOTE The Calibration screen can be accessed by pressing Blue key then Backspace key.
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 side of the MC65.
2. Carefully press and briefly hold the tip of stylus on the center of each target that appears on the screen.
3. Repeat as the target moves around the screen, then tap the screen to continue.

Powering Off the MC65

NOTE Only available on OEM version 02.31.002 and above.
To power off the MC65, press the Power button for five seconds. Tap Power Off.
