Batteries
Note: New batteries must be charged prior to use. If the main battery and backup battery are
depleted, the mobile device reverts to factory default values. Wireless configuration
parameters will need to be re-entered after reverting to factory default values. The
backup battery is continually recharged by the main battery pack.
The mobile device is designed to work with a 2200 mAh Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) battery from LXE.
Under normal conditions it should last approximately eight to ten hours before requiring a
recharge. During very heavy scanner or RF transmitter use, the operating time of the battery may
be less. The operating system keeps date and time valid for a minimum of four days using a fully
charged backup battery and a main battery pack installed that has reached the Low Warning point.
