Charging the Battery

Charging the Main Battery and Memory Backup Battery

Before using your terminal for the first time, charge the lithium-ion
battery in the terminal for approximately four hours, using the
Serial Charging Cable or any other appropriate accessory.
Your terminal is equipped with a memory backup battery which
automatically charges from the fully-charged lithium-ion battery.
This backup battery retains data in memory when the terminal’s
battery is removed, and can take up to 20 hours to charge when
you first use your terminal.

Note:

If you remove your lithium-ion battery before the back-
up battery is fully charged, data may be lost. For this
reason, DO NOT remove the battery before the backup
battery is fully charged, which can take up to 20 hours.
