Installation: Chargers And Docking Stations
Ikôn Rugged PDA (Windows Mobile 6.1) User Manual 253
- The plug pins on the extension cord are the same number, size, and shape as those on
the adaptor.
- The extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition, and that the
wire size is larger than 18 AWG.
• Do not expose the AC adaptor to rain or snow. However, both the CH4000 and CH4004
are designed to accept a wet Ikôn Rugged PDA without harmful effect.
• Do not place batteries in the docking stations if they are cold—temperatures below 0°C
(32°F). Allow them to warm up to room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
• Do not use a docking station if after an overnight charge, the battery feels warmer than
the charger housing. The dock should be inspected by qualified service personnel.
• Do not use a docking station if the battery, while charging, becomes more
than lukewarm.
7.4.2 Installation: Chargers And Docking Stations
When installing a charger or docking station, consider the following guidelines.
• Keep chargers and docking stations away from excessive dirt, dust and
contaminants.
• Chargers will not charge batteries outside an ambient temperature range of 0° C to
40 °C (32° F to 104° F). It is recommended that the charger or docking station be
operated at room temperature–between 18° C and 25° C (64° F to 77° F) for
maximum performance.
After unpacking your unit:
• Visually inspect the charger for possible damage.
• Install the IEC power cord and apply power.
7.4.3 Power Consumption Considerations
Check to ensure the mains circuit supplying chargers and/or docking stations is adequate for
the load, especially if several chargers and docking stations are being powered from the
same circuit.
• Quad docking station can consume up to 1.9A @ 120 VAC or 1.5 A @ 240 VAC.
