charging to keep the battery at acceptable temperatures. The MC65 or accessory indicates when charging is
disabled due to abnormal temperatures via its LED. See Table 1-2.
Powering On the MC65
After inserting the battery or when turning the MC65 on for the first time, the splash screen displays for about a
minute as the MC65 initializes its flash file system, then the calibration window appears. Note that these windows
also appear upon cold boot.
