Charging the Lithium-Ion Battery Pack
The optional Docking Station is a convenient accessory for daily use of the PA966. Charging the battery pack using the Docking Station takes approximately 3 hours.
Or, when using the included Charging/USB cable or Charging/ RS232 cable, the charging time of the battery pack is also about 3 hours.
Charging the Main and Backup Battery for the First Time
Note: Before using the PA966 for the first time, charge the unit for 16 hours to fully charge the empty backup battery. Operating the PA966 for the first time without the AC adapter, and without fully charging the backup battery may result in loss of data stored in RAM memory.
Note:
It may take up to 96 hours to backup data when the PA966 is automatically shut down because of very low battery power while the depleted batteries are still installed in the battery compartment.
