Charging the Scanner Battery in the Cradle
For best performance, fully charge the scanner battery before using the scanner for the first time. To charge the
scanner battery, place the scanner in the cradle (see
Inserting the Scanner in the Cradle on page 1-9 ). The battery
begins charging when the scanner LED indicator starts flashing green. A complete charge of a fully discharged
battery can take up to four hours using external power and up to 10 hours using the interface cable.
Charge within the recommended temperature of 32° to 104° F (0° to 40° C) nominal, 41° to 95° F (5° to 35° C)
ideal.
For information on maximizing battery life, see Battery Maintenance on page 3-1 .
Scanner Charging LED
The scanner’s green LED indicates charging activity (see Table 2-2 on page 2-4 ). If the scanner is charging in fast
mode (non-bus powered mode), the green LED blinks at a fast rate. If the scanner is charging in slow mode
(bus-powered mode), the LED blinks at a slow rate.
If the scanner’s red LED begins flashing, indicating a charging problem, remove the scanner from the cradle and
replace the battery. If the red LED continues flashing, contact Motorola Enterprise Mobility Support.
