Installing and removing the batteries
The batteries in the Ranger 7 data collector can be charged inside the device, or using the
Battery charger accessory (part number 121343-01-1).
The batteries in the Ranger 7 data collector are also hot swappable; you can remove one
battery while the Ranger 7 data collector is still running on the second battery, and replace
it with a freshly charged battery without shutting down or needing to restart the device.
CAUTION – If you remove both batteries, the device will shut down and work may
be lost.
Installing the batteries
1. Turn the battery latch 90° clockwise or anticlockwise until the flat edge aligns with a
battery opening.
NOTE – You can use a coin or the top of the stylus to do this.
2. Insert a battery, then turn the battery latch 180° until the flat edge aligns with the
second battery opening.
3. Insert a second battery.
4. Turn the battery latch 90° back to the center position to lock both batteries in place.
