Battery Life and Replacement

Overview

The battery powering the MVP-5100 and MVP-5150 is designed for upwards of 300 deep discharge

rechargings. Regular shallow rechargings will extensively increase expected battery life, and the device

should be stored in either the Table Charging Station or the Wall Charging Station when not in use to

keep it at an optimum charge. The battery has reached its effective end of life after it can no longer hold

more than a 70 percent charge.

Power Management

Since the MVP-5100 and MVP-5150 are battery-powered handheld devices, power management is a

necessary concern. Under continuous use, the charge on the integral Lithium Polymer battery can last for

as long as four hours. However, to maximize usability and minimize the chances of the device becoming

completely discharged at a critical moment, the device should be kept in its charging cradle or wall

station when not in use.

Each device operates on two distinct power modes:

 Awake - This is the normal power mode of the panel during operation. In this mode, all

necessary modules are powered up and their respective clocks are being driven appropriately.

The device remains online with the Netlinx Master and continues to appear in the online tree

of Netlinx Studio.

 Processor Shutdown - The system enters this mode after a user selectable amount of

inactivity time has elapsed or if the battery level falls below10 percent of its full charge. This

is the absolute lowest mode of operation, during which power to all peripherals and

components is turned off. It is not online with the NetLinx Master and will not appear in

NetLinx Studio. The system remains in this mode until either it is rebooted or the battery is

completely shut down. In the latter case, the panel has to be placed in a Table Charging Station

in order for it to be operational.

Unlike traditional Lithium Ion batteries, the Lithium Polymer battery in the MVP-5100

and MVP-5150 has a very small charge retention decline as it is discharged and

recharged.

This device has a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with an incorrect type. Be

sure to dispose of used batteries in a correct manner.
