! with batteries for a month or longer, remove the batteries.
Charging rechargeable batteries
The PSR-800 features a built-in battery charging circuit that will
charge NiCad and NiMH batteries. The charger provides a slow
rate charge that will fully charge a set of typical NiMH AA
batteries in approximately 16 hours. The charger is active when
the radio is connected to an external USB power source and the
radio is powered off. When connected to an external USB power
source and powered on, the radio operates using the external
power source but does not charge the batteries. Charging is
controlled by a timer. Your PSR-800 provides an indication when
the internal battery charge circuit is active. An animated battery
icon indicates that the PSR-800 is connected to external power
and the internal battery charger circuit is active.
WARNING:! The external DC power input is designed to accept external
! power from the USB data cable and from USB power adapters.
! Turn the PSR-800 off prior to connecting or disconnecting
! external power.
WARNING:! Discontinue use of any battery that exhibits leakage, swelling or
! abnormal generation of heat. When you charge rechargeable
! batteries, do not over charge them. Overcharging shortens
! battery life and may cause battery failure.
Using AC Power
You can power the scanner using an optional AC USB power
adaptor and the supplied USB cable.
To power the scanner using an AC USB power adaptor, connect
the USB of the supplied USB cable to the AC USB power
adapter, and connect the scanner end of the supplied USB cable
to the scanner's USB jack. To prevent corruption of MicroSD
Card data, always power the PSR-800 off using the front panel
