GETTING STARTED 
Before the FocusBT can be placed in operation for the first time, the battery 
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). 
1.  Check the AC input requirements of the 
power supply to make sure the voltage 
matches the AC outlet.  The outlet 
should be located near the charger and 
easily accessible. 
2.  Plug the power supply into the socket 
on the back of the charger.   
A blue PW will illuminate near the 
Metrologic logo indicating the charger is 
receiving power. 
3.  Verify that the battery pack is not ON. 
The blue power LED on the battery pack 
should be OFF. 
Warning!   
Damage to the battery pack 
can occur if it is charged while 
turned ON. 
4.  Insert the battery pack into the charger 
as shown in Figure 5. 
A white CH will start to flash on and off 
on the charger near the Metrologic logo.   
If the white CH does not appear, 
check to make sure the battery pack 
is seated all the way in the charger 
with the battery contacts facing the 
contacts on the charger. 
5.  When the battery is completely 
charged the charging indicator 
(CH) will stop flashing and stay 
illuminated.
