Turning on the Power Supply
Turning on the DC Output Power Supply
If so equipped, the DC Output Power Supply of the Metro
TM
1800 Series Mobile Computing
Workstation must be turned on to power all the workstation equipment. The Power Supply is
controlled by the “ON/Extended Storage” Switch located on the Power Supply that is typically
mounted on the bottom of the workstation.
ON/Extended
Storage Switch
In the “ON” position, the power supply provides power to the Metro
TM
1800
Series Mobile Computing Workstation systems. If the workstation is not
used for an extended period of time, the ON/Extended Storage Switch
should be put in the “Extended Storage” (OFF) position. The switch
position disconnects the battery from any internal or external equipment
and avoids deep discharges of the battery, which can cause damage to
the battery.
Important Notice:
Please refer to the respective supplemental operations manual included
with the Mobile Computing Workstation for the Power Supply installed for
further details of the “ON/Extended Storage” Switch and the requirements
for long term (more than one week) storage.
