Changing the Main Battery Pack
Before installing a battery pack, press the Power key to put the terminal in Suspend Mode (see page 3-
13) so that operations are suspended before removing the main power source. Always put the terminal
in Suspend Mode prior to changing the battery. The ScanPal 5100 is shipped with the battery separate
from the unit. You will need to remove the battery door, insert the battery, and replace the battery door.
Refer to the instructions included in Installing the Main Battery section (page 2-1).
Note: The battery door must be installed prior to booting the unit.
Charging Options
When the battery is installed in the terminal, you can use any of the peripherals listed below to charge the
battery.
• HomeBase Device (see page 9-1)
• ScanPal 5100 Comm/Charge Cable; Connecting the USB Charging/Communication Cable (see page
7-2) You may charge the device using the USB connection if you do not have a wall adapter. There
are two options that allow either 100mA or 500mA of current over the USB connection. Access the
option by selecting Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Power -> USB Charging.
To fully charge the Li-ion battery before installing it in the terminal, use the
• QuadCharger Device (see page 10-1) or insert the battery in the spare battery charging well in the back
of the ScanPal 5100 HomeBase.
Charging Time
The standard capacity 2200mAh Li-ion battery pack requires four hours to charge to full capacity, while
the extended capacity 3300mAh pack requires six hours.
Managing Main Battery Power
Data and files saved on the ScanPal 5100 terminal may be stored in RAM memory; therefore, maintain a
continuous power supply to the terminal to help prevent data loss. When you remove a battery pack, insert
another charged battery pack in the ScanPal 5100. If the main battery pack is low, insert the terminal into
a charging peripheral to power the terminal and begin recharging the battery.
Note: If the main battery is low and the terminal is in Suspend Mode, pressing the Power button does not wake
the ScanPal 5100 terminal; you must replace the discharged battery with a fully charged battery, or apply AC
power to the terminal.
