Unpacking
Carefully remove all protective material from around the MC92N0-G and save the shipping container for later
storage and shipping.
Verify that you received all equipment listed below:
• mobile computer
• lithium-ion battery
• strap, attached to the MC92N0-G
• stylus, in the stylus silo
• Regulatory Guide.
Inspect the equipment for damage. If you are missing any equipment or if you find any damaged equipment,
contact the Zebra Support Center immediately. See page xvii for contact information.
Getting Started
In order to start using the MC92N0-G for the first time:
• install the main battery
• charge the main battery and backup battery
• start the MC92N0-G
• configure the MC92N0-G.
The main battery can be charged before or after it is installed. Use one of the spare battery chargers to charge the
main battery (out of the MC92N0-G), or one of the cradles to charge the main battery installed in the MC92N0-G.
Installing the Main Battery
Before using the MC92N0-G, install a lithium-ion battery by sliding the battery into the MC92N0-G as shown in
Figure 1-2.
NOTE Ensure the battery is fully inserted. Two audible clicks can be heard as the battery is fully inserted. A partially
inserted battery may result in unintentional data loss.
When a battery is fully inserted in a MC92N0-G for the first time, upon first power up, the device boots and powers
on automatically.
Chapter Title 1 - 3
Figure 1-2 Installing the Main Battery
Charging the Battery
CAUTION Ensure that you follow the guidelines for battery safety described in Battery Safety Guidelines on page 8-1.
Charging the Main Battery and Memory Backup Battery
Before using the MC92N0-G for the first time, charge the main battery until the amber charge indicator light
remains lit (see Table 1-1 on page 1-4 for charge status indications). The main battery fully charges in less than
four hours. The MC92N0-G can be charged using a cradle, the CAM, or the MSR with the appropriate power
supply.
The MC92N0-G is also equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from the main battery
whether or not the MC92N0-G is operating or is in suspend mode. The memory backup battery retains data in
memory for at least 30 minutes when the MC92N0-G's main battery is removed or fully discharged. When the
MC92N0-G 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 MC92N0-G for 15
hours to ensure that the memory backup battery fully charges. If the main battery is removed from the MC92N0-G
or the main battery is fully discharged, the memory backup battery completely discharges in several hours.
When the main battery reaches a very low battery state, the combination of main battery and backup battery
retains data in memory for at least 72 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.
Use the following to charge batteries:
1 - 4 MC92N0-G User Guide
