The Communications Cradle
The cradle automatically charges the M7225’s battery while it is resting in the
cradle. The cradle also includes an extra slot to charge a spare battery. The
Communications Cradle can accommodate the handheld computer with or
without the optional pistol grip handle.
The Communications Cradle has three indicator lights:
- Indicates that the cradle is plugged in.
- Indicates the handheld’s main battery is charging.
- Indicates the spare battery is charging.
When the LED is red, the battery is charging. When the LED is green, the battery
is fully charged. A fully discharged battery takes approximately 5 hours to
completely recharge.
