Getting Started To start using the MC55 for the first time: Stylus AF • Install the SIM card (MC5504 and MC5574 only) • Install the main battery. • Charge the MC55. • Power on the MC55. • Configure the MC55. Installing the SIM Card NOTE MC5504 and MC5574 configurations only. GSM phone service requires a Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) card, or smart card. Obtain this card from the your service provider. The card fits into the MC55 and can contain the following information: • Mobile phone service provider account details. • Information regarding service access and preferences. • Contact information, which can be moved to Contacts on the MC55. • Any additional services to which you have subscribed. NOTE For more information about SIM cards, refer to the service provider's documentation. To install the SIM card: 1. Lift the SIM cover using the stylus tip. MC55 User Guide Figure 1-3 Lifting the SIM Cover Insert the SIM card, as shown in Figure 1-4, with the cut edge of the card facing out and the contacts facing down. AF 2. 1-6 Figure 1-4 Inserting the SIM Card 3. Replace the battery and battery cover. 4. Lower the SIM cover and slide it in place. 5. Press the red Power button. 6. Tap Start > Phone > Menu > Options > Network tab and verify that the service provider appears in the Current network: field. 7. Make a call to verify connection. NOTE For detailed information about WWAN activation and settings, refer to the MC55 Integrator Guide. Installing the Main Battery NOTE The MC55 ships with a 2200 mAh battery. An optional 3300 mAh battery is available. To install the main battery. 1. Insert the battery, bottom first, into the battery compartment in the back of the MC55. Getting Started NOTE 2. 1-7 Position the battery correctly, with the battery charging contacts on top of the charging contacts in the battery compartment. Press the battery down into the battery compartment until the battery release latch snaps into place. Battery Battery Cover Latch Battery Cover AF Release Latch Figure 1-5 Inserting the Battery 3. Insert the handstrap through the handstrap slot, then tighten and press down to secure. Handstrap Handstrap Slot Figure 1-6 Inserting the Handstrap The MC55 powers up after inserting the battery and replacing the battery cover. Charging the Battery CAUTION Ensure that you follow the guidelines for battery safety described in Battery Safety Guidelines on page 7-2. Charging the Main Battery and Memory Backup Battery Before using the MC55 for the first time, charge the main battery until the amber Charging/Battery Status LED remains lit (see Table 1-2 on page 1-8 for charge status indications). To charge the MC55, use a cable or a cradle with the appropriate power supply. For information about the accessories available for the MC55, see Chapter 6, Accessories. The MC55 is equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from the fully-charged main battery. When using the MC55 for the first time, the backup battery requires approximately 24 hours to fully charge. This is also true any time the backup battery is discharged, which occurs when the main battery is removed for 1-8 MC55 User Guide several hours. The backup battery retains RAM data in memory for at least 15 minutes (at room temperature) when the MC55's main battery is removed. When the MC55 reaches a very low battery state, the combination of main battery and backup battery retains RAM data in memory for at least 48 hours. To charge the main battery, use either a charging cable or a cradle. For cable and cradle setup and charging procedures refer to the MC55 Integrator Guide. • Single Slot USB/Serial Cradle • Four Slot Charge Only Cradle • Vehicle Cradle. To charge the main battery: Connect the charging accessory to the appropriate power source. 2. Insert the MC55 into a cradle or attach to a cable. The MC55 begins charging. The Charging/Battery Status LED blinks amber while charging, then turns solid amber when fully charged. See Table 1-2 for charging indications. AF 1. The 2200 mAh battery fully charges in approximately five hours and the 3300 mAh battery charges in approximately seven hours. Table 1-2 LED Charge Indicators Charging/Battery Status LED Indication MC55 is not charging. MC55 is not inserted correctly in the cradle or connected to a power source. Charger/cradle is not powered. Slow Blinking Amber (1 blink every 2 seconds) MC55 is charging. Solid Amber Charging complete. Note: When the battery is initially inserted in the MC55, the amber LED flashes once if the battery power is low or the battery is not fully inserted. Fast Blinking Amber (2 blinks/second) Charging error, e.g.: • Temperature is too low or too high. • Charging has gone on too long without completion (typically eight hours). Single Blink Amber (when Power button pressed) Battery depleted. Blinking Amber (when Power button pressed) Battery over-temperature condition. Off Charging Spare Batteries See Chapter 6, Accessories for information on using accessories to change spare batteries. Charging Temperature Charge batteries in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). Note that charging is intelligently controlled by the MC55.
