To Remove the Main Battery Pack
Put the terminal in Suspend mode before removing the battery; Suspend Mode, page 2-9.
1. Detach the handstrap.
2. Press the locking tab on the battery pack and pull it away from the bottom panel.
3. Pull the battery pack up with a hinging motion.
Step 3. Charge the Main and Backup Batteries
The power supply consists of two types of battery power: the main battery pack and the backup battery located inside the
terminal. The main battery powers the terminal and charges the internal backup battery. The internal backup battery maintains
the application data stored in RAM and the system clock for up to 30 minutes when the main battery pack is completely
discharged or removed.
Before initial use - Because the terminals are shipped with both batteries discharged of all power, charge the main battery pack
for a minimum of four hours before initial use. When installed in the terminal, the battery pack can be charged in the HomeBase,
Mobile Base, or with the appropriate charging cable. When not installed in the terminal, battery packs can be charged in the
QuadCharger or the auxiliary well of the HomeBase.
Time to Charge - Four hours for the main battery pack, eight hours for the internal backup battery the first time. For more
information,
see Battery Power on page 3-10.
Use only Dolphin 7900 Series peripherals, power cables, and power adapters. Use of peripherals, cables, or power
adapters not sold/manufactured by
Hand Held Products
will void the warranty and may damage the terminal.
