Power is supplied to the wireless scanner by a rechargeable battery that is integrated in the scanner. Batteries are not shipped
fully charged. The battery should be charged for a minimum of 4 hours before initial use to ensure optimal performance.
Charging Information
The battery is designed to charge while the scanner is plugged into a wall outlet or into a host via the USB cable. Refer to
Low Battery Indicator, page 3-6, for an interpretation of the Charge Status indicators.
Plug the scanner in a Listed Limited Power Source (LPS) or Class 2 type power supply with output rated 5 to 5.2Vdc, 1A.
Note: If you are powering the scanner through the USB interface cable instead of using an external power supply, the
current available for charging is reduced and charge times are increased.
Battery Recommendations
• The battery is a lithium ion cell and can be used without a full charge, and can also be charged without fully discharging,
without impacting the battery life. There is no need to perform any charge/discharge conditioning on this type of battery.
• Replace a defective battery immediately since it could damage the scanner.
• Although your battery can be recharged many times, it will eventually be depleted. Replace it after the battery is unable
to hold an adequate charge.
• If you are not sure if the battery or charger is working properly, send it to Honeywell International Inc. or an authorized
service center for inspection. Refer to Customer Support on page -ix for additional information.
Caution:
Use only Honeywell Li-ion battery packs, part number 3H21-00000112, or 163480-0001, rated 3.7 Vdc,
2.77Whr in this device. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may result in damage not covered by the warranty.
Safety Precautions for Lithium Batteries
• Do not place batteries in fire or heat the batteries.
• Do not store batteries near fire or other high temperature locations.
• Do not store or carry batteries together with metal objects.
• Do not expose batteries to water or allow the batteries to get wet.
• Do not connect (short) the positive and negative terminals, of the batteries, to each other with any metal object.
• Do not pierce, strike or step on batteries or subject batteries to strong impacts or shocks.
• Do not disassemble or modify batteries.
Caution:
Danger of explosion if batteries are incorrectly replaced. Dispose of used batteries according to the recycle
program for batteries as directed by the governing agency for the country where the batteries are to be
discarded.
Proper Disposal of the Battery
When the battery has reached the end of its useful life, the battery should be disposed of by a qualified
recycler or hazardous materials handler. Do not incinerate the battery or dispose of the battery with gen-
eral waste materials. You may send the scanner’s battery to us. (postage paid). The shipper is responsi-
ble for complying with all federal, state, and local laws and regulations related to the packing, labeling,
manifesting, and shipping of spent batteries. Contact the Product Service and Repair (page -ix) for recy-
cling or disposal information. Since you may find that your cost of returning the batteries significant, it
may be more cost effective to locate a local recycle/disposal company.
Beeper and LED Sequences and Meaning
The scanner contains 2 LEDs on the top of the unit that indicate linking status, decoding state, and battery condition. There are
audible indicators as well: 1 razz or error tone = error; 2 beeps = menu change; 1 beep = all other successes.
The table below lists the indication and cause of the LED indicators and beeps for the scanner.
