Dolphin CN80 Mobile Computer 9
Charge the Battery Before Use
Dolphin CN80 computers ship with a partially charged battery. Fully charge the
battery before using your computer for the first time.
Note: CN80G model battery ships separately from the mobile computer.
You can charge the battery with a Dolphin CX80 series charging accessory before
or after you install the battery in the computer. A fully discharged battery charges
in approximately 4 hours.
Note: Honeywell recommends using Honeywell accessories and power adapters. Using
non-Honeywell accessories or power adapters may cause damage not covered by the
warranty.
To charge the battery before you install it in the computer:
• Insert the battery into the CX80 Quad Battery Charger or the battery well of a
Home Base or Ethernet Home Base.
To charge the battery after installing it in the computer:
• Insert the computer into a CX80 Home Base, Ethernet Home Base, Charge Base,
Net Base, Snap-on Adapter, or Vehicle Power Adapter.
Note: Using the computer while charging the battery increases the time required to reach
a full charge.
