GETTING STARTED

Before the FocusBT can be placed in operation the battery pack must be

charged for a minimum of 8 hours. After the initial preparation charge of

8 hours, the battery will only require 6 hours to come to a full charge when it

gives a Low Battery warning (see page 8). Follow the steps on page 7 to fully

charge the battery.

Once charged, the unit is able to handle 5400 continuous first pass readings over

a period of approximately 9 hours. After 30 seconds of no activity the scanner

will go into a sleep mode to conserve battery life.
