Figure 3-2: Powering Up the PPT 2700/2800
Note: If you have not used the PPT 2700/2800 within the configured time, the device will go into
Power Save mode. This means that the device will power down. To turn it on press the red power
button. You will be returned to the last screen presented prior to shut off.
3.3.2. Charging the Device
Before using your terminal for the first time, charge the battery. Also, when battery voltage is
low, a warning message displays indicating the battery needs to be charged. You can charge the
battery using the CRD 2800 cradle. Your terminal is equipped with a memory backup battery that
automatically charges from the main lithium-ion battery. This backup battery retains data in
memory when the terminal's battery is removed, and takes several hours to charge when you first
use your terminal.
Note: If you remove your lithium-ion battery before the backup battery is fully charged, data may
be lost. For this reason DO NOT remove the battery within the first ten hours of use.
Using the Cradle to Charge the Battery
To charge the terminal's battery using the cradle:
Connect the power supply to the power port on the back of the cradle, and the other end of the
power supply to a wall outlet.
