Charging the Battery
Use the mobile computer cradles, cables and spare battery chargers to charge the mobile computer main battery.
The main battery can be charged before insertion into the mobile computer or after it is installed. There are two
main batteries for the MC32N0, the Standard Battery (1X) and the Extended Life Battery (2X). The standard
capacity battery ships from the factory in all MC32N0-R configurations. The Extended Life Battery ships from the
factory in all MC32N0-S and MC32N0-G configurations. To install an Extended Life Battery in the MC32N0-R
configurations, purchase an Extended Life Battery.Use one of the spare battery chargers to charge the main
battery (out of the mobile computer) or one of the cradles to charge the main battery while it is installed in the
mobile computer.
Before using the mobile computer for the first time, fully charge the main battery until the amber Charge LED
Indicator remains lit (see LED Charge Indicators on page 1-15 for charge status indications). The Standard Battery
fully charges in less than five hours and the Extended Life Battery fully charges in less than eight hours.
The MC32N0 retains data in memory for at least five minutes when the mobile computer’s main battery is removed
or fully discharged.
When the main battery reaches a very low battery state, the battery retains data in memory for at least 36 hours.
Batteries must be charged within the 0° to +40° C (32° to 104° F) ambient temperature range.
The following accessories can be used to charge batteries:
•Cradles (and a power supply):
•Single Slot Serial/USB Cradle with Battery Adapter
•Four Slot Cradles.
•Cables (and a power supply):
•USB Client Charge Cable
•Serial (RS232) Charge Cable.
•Spare Battery Chargers (and a power supply):
•Four Slot Spare Battery Charger
•Universal Battery Charger (UBC) Adapter with Battery Adapter.
To charge the mobile computer using the cradles:
1. Insert the mobile computer into a cradle. See Chapter 6, Accessories for accessory setup.
2. The mobile computer starts to charge automatically. The amber Charge LED Indicator indicates the charge
status. See the table below for charging indications.
To charge the mobile computer using the cables:
1. Connect the MC32N0 Communication/Charge Cable to the appropriate power source and connect to the mobile
computer. See Chapter 6, Accessories for accessory setup.
2. The mobile computer starts to charge automatically. The amber Charge LED Indicator indicates the charge
status.
CAUTION Ensure that you follow the guidelines for battery safety described in Battery Safety Guidelines on
page 7-2.
