Fujitsu 1600 manual Charging the Battery Pack While Installed in the Pen Tablet

Charging the Battery Pack (While Installed in the Pen Tablet)

The Point 1600 battery pack can be charged while it is installed in the Point 1600 pen tablet. To charge the battery pack,

1.Look at the Low-Battery LED while the pen tablet is disconnected from external power to determine the battery pack charge level before you begin charging the battery pack. Table 1-1 on page 1-5 shows the battery pack charge level represented by the Low-Battery LED. The lower the battery level, the longer the battery pack will require for recharging.

2.Connect the pen tablet to an external power source. The Charge LED flashes once when external power is initially connected. The Charge LED will then indicate whether the charge level is above or below 90% as discussed in Table 1-1 on page 1-5. (Note that external power can be provided by a source such as an AC adapter or a connectivity peripheral that provides DC power.)

If the battery pack charge is below 90%, the battery pack charges in fast charge mode. If the battery pack charge is 90% or higher, the battery pack charges in slow charge mode. (This protects the battery pack from being overcharged.)

If fully discharged, the battery pack recharges to 90% in about 90 minutes. (Charging may take longer if peripherals are attached.) You can use the pen tablet, suspend system operation, or shut down the system, without interrupting the charging process. Also, note that there is no “memory effect”. You can begin charging the battery pack at any charge level.
