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.
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 fully inserted in a wearable terminal for the first time, upon the wearable terminal’s first power up, the device boots and powers on automatically.

Installing the Main Battery

Charging the Battery

CAUTION Ensure that you follow the guidelines for battery safety described in Battery Safety Guidelines on page
9-3.

Charging the Main Battery and 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 1-1 on page 1-5 for charge status indications).
The wearable terminal is equipped with a backup battery which automatically charges from the main battery whether or not the wearable terminal is operating or is in suspend mode. The backup battery retains data in memory for at least 15 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 backup battery has fully discharged, the backup battery requires approximately 15 hours to fully charge. Do not remove the main battery from the wearable terminal for 16 hours to ensure that the ba cku p 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 batter y using either the Sin gle 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.
