Charging your dosimeter

Charging your dosimeter

The number of hours you have used your dosimeter from your last charge will impact your total charge time. For example, if the battery clock indicator (see “Checking the battery power” for more information) displays 20 hours remaining on the battery and you wish to charge the battery, the approximate charging time is 2 hours.

To charge a fully discharged battery, allow approximately 4 to 4.5 hours of charge time.

How to charge

1.Plug in the power adapter to the EdgeDock. (See Figure 2-6, page 13.)

When powered on, the EdgeDock bottom LED indicator will appear solid amber.

2.Slide the Edge (1) downward onto the Hook of the EdgeDock. (See Figure 2-7 below).

NOTE: When the dosimeter is docked, the top LED indicator on the base will be illuminated. A red flashing LED indicates it is charging. A green solid LED indicates a fully charged battery.
