NOTE: If the fully-charged unit is still connected to the charger, the
status found in Settings / System / Power will report the battery
power remaining as if the unit were still on battery power.
Swapping the PowerBoot Module: The PowerBoot is designed to
be quickly swapped in the field (if you have purchased additional
PowerBoot Modules). If the current PowerBoot runs low, replace it
and continue with your work.
The unit saves enough power that if you swap the PowerBoot
within 30 seconds, it will not trigger a reset. If the saved power runs
out before the new PowerBoot is connected, the unit will reset. This
will not impact saved data, programs or configuration, however
unsaved data will be lost and the time will need to be reset.
To change a PowerBoot Module, perform the following steps:
1. Ensure the unit is turned
OFF
.
2. Remove the hand strap from the PowerBoot.
3. Unlock the latches on both PowerBoot Modules. Use a
screwdriver or the flat head of the supplied stylus to turn the
latches counter-clockwise until arrows point downward towards
the I/O ports on the PowerBoot.
4. With the unit upside down, remove
the PowerBoot by using your thumbs
to push and slide it away from the unit
as shown in the illustration. Be careful
to not press the Power key while the
PowerBoot is detached.
5. Quickly slide the new PowerBoot
onto the unit.
6. Lock the latches on the new PowerBoot by turning them
clockwise one half turn until the arrows on the latches point
away from the I/O ports.
7. Replace the hand strap.
8. Turn the unit ON to resume operation.
