Chapter 3: Getting To Know The WORKABOUT PRO

The Batteries

3.2 The Batteries

The hand-held operates with a Lithium-Ion battery pack. Preparing the unit for operation requires that a battery pack be charged and installed in the

WORKABOUT PRO.

Three levels of battery packs are available for the WORKABOUT PRO:

High-Capacity – Model No. WA3006, and

Super High-Capacity – Model No. WA3010

3.2.1 Battery Safety

Important: Before attempting to install, use or charge the battery pack, it is critical that you review and follow the important safety guidelines in the quick reference guide entitled ‘WORKABOUT PRO Hand-Held Computer Regulatory & Warranty Guide’,

PN 8000126.

3.2.2 Removing The Battery Pack

Important: Always switch the unit off before opening the battery cover to remove the battery. When the cover is removed, a power-off switch is automatically activated and the unit power is switched off; if the battery cover is opened while the hand-held is still powered on, the unit may reboot. Any active sessions may be lost.

Keep in mind also that while the battery is being installed, the WORKABOUT PRO backup battery will save the current data for up to 5 minutes.

Refer to “Installing The Battery And Switching The Unit On” on page 13.

3.2.3 Battery Swap Time

Assuming the default power saving parameters and battery reserve level have not been altered, battery swap time is approximately 5 minutes—you will not lose data if the battery is replaced within this time frame.

To protect data, the safest place to store data is on a SD/MMC memory card or

externally to the device on a USB memory stick or on a PC.
