Setting up the TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ Teacher Software 5Charging the cradlesThe TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ Cradles contain rechargable batteries. You must charge the batteries overnight before using them in your class. When the cradles are fully charged, they will function all day under continuous use. You should recharge them each night.The TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ Cradle Charging Bay can hold from one to five cradles. After you place the cradles in the charging bay, they are charged simultaneously until all are fully charged. If the batteries are fully discharged, it may take up to 12 hours to fully charge the batteries.Note: You cannot damage the batteries by leaving them in the charging bay beyond the time needed to fully charge them. Also, it is not necessary to fully discharge the batteries before recharging them. Make sure you have enough (3–4) power outlets for the equipment you received. If necessary, obtain a plug strip so that you have plenty of grounded outlets.1. Insert the small end of the AC9940 power adapter cord into the charging bay’s power jack.2. Plug the other end of the adapter into a power outlet.3. Insert each TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ wireless cradle into the TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ Cradle Charging Bay. Make sure the LED is amber.Note: You can charge a single wireless cradle using an AC9926 adapter (sold separately).Checking the LEDsTwo LEDs (small lights) at the top of each TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ wireless cradle blink or change colors to indicate various operations or status.
6 Setting up the TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ Teacher SoftwareThe LED indicates network activity. The LED indicates battery-charging status.When the cradles are still in the TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ Cradle Charging Bay:• A solid amber LED means the wireless cradle is currently recharging.• A solid red LED means the wireless cradle does not have good contact with the charging bay. Reposition the cradle so it has good contact and the LED turns amber.• A solid green LED means the wireless cradle is fully charged.Installing the handheld softwareBefore you use the TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ Teacher Software with your handhelds, make sure you have the latest operating system installed on all of the handhelds in order for the software to work properly.You can use the TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ Teacher Software to update the handheld operating system. Note: After you install the latest OS on one handheld, you can use that handheld to install the OS on other handhelds.1. Make sure you have connected a TI-Nspire™ handheld to your computer.2. Open the TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ Teacher Software.3. Make sure you are in the Content workspace.The software displays a list of connected handhelds in the Resources pane and lets you select one.Note: You can communicate with only one handheld at a time.

18 Setting up the TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ Teacher SoftwareStoring the wireless adapters and cradlesWhen you charge the handhelds overnight, you can leave the TI-Nspire™ Wireless Network Adapters attached to the handhelds before placing the handhelds in the TI-Nspire™ CX Docking Station. When you are ready to use the handhelds the next morning, the handheld should be fully charged, and the adapter is ready for use. You can remove the wireless adapter from the handheld, and store the adapters in the adapter storage case overnight.If you need to store the wireless adapters for more than two weeks, remove the wireless adapter from the handheld, and store the adapters in the adapter storage case. Place the storage case in a cool, dry place.If you need to store the TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ Cradles for more than two weeks, remove the handhelds from the cradles, and store the cradles in a cool, dry place. You cannot damage the batteries by leaving them in the charging bay beyond the time needed to fully charge them, or by leaving them in the charging bay while the charging bay is unplugged.Checking the status of wireless adapters and cradlesAfter you have added wireless adapters or cradles automatically or manually, all of the adapters or cradles you added appear in the TI-Nspire™ Network Manager window. If the wireless adapter or cradle is charged and attached to a TI-Nspire™ handheld that is powered on, TI-Nspire™ Network Manager shows the status as connected. It may take up to 30 seconds to recognize the wireless client and show its status as connected. The status window also displays the battery status and signal strength.
Setting up the TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ Teacher Software 19If the cradle is not charged, or the adapter or cradle is not connected to a TI-Nspire™ handheld that is powered on, TI-Nspire™ Network Manager displays the status as disconnected. TI-Nspire™ Network Manager remembers the adapter and cradle IDs you added, and the next time you turn on the TI-Nspire™ handheld that is connected to the adapter or cradle, TI-Nspire™ Network Manager recognizes it.Note: To refresh the TI-Nspire™ Network Manager window, click View > Refresh or click .Identifying selected cradlesAt times you may have a problem with one or two TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ Cradles in your network that aren’t responding. When you look at the list of cradles in the TI-Nspire™ Network Manager window, you can identify which ones are not responding by the Status message, and you can see the serial numbers.You could match the serial numbers in the window with the ones printed on the back of each wireless cradle. However, TI-Nspire™ Network Manager gives you an easier way to physically locate them. You can use the Identify selected command to quickly tell which cradles are working properly in your classroom.1. From the list of hardware components in the TI-Nspire™ Network Manager window, click to select all of the working cradles. To select more than one cradle, press and hold the Shift or Ctrl key (Macintosh®: “key), and click the items you want to select.2. Click Actions > Identify Selected.3. Look around your classroom at the cradles in your network. Both LEDs on the cradles that you selected will blink rapidly with a green color. You can identify the cradles that are not working because their LEDs are not blinking.
20 Setting up the TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ Teacher SoftwareNow that you know where the non-working cradles are, you can add the cradles to the network again.Cradle LEDsThe LEDs on each cradle use various colors and blink patterns to indicate data activity or power status. This can occur either when the cradles are seated in the charging bay or when they are outside the charging bay.The LEDs indicate status as follows.
