Chapter 3: Setup
l
Moisture resistance - none, unless wrapped with a waterproof sheet material. Do not
store the unprotected carton outdoors.
Battery Shipment
The LD-250 requires one Omron-supplied lithium-ion battery, model 2045. The operating soft-
ware reports an error if you install an incorrect battery model.
After installation, the AMR's software verifies the battery model and reports an error if the bat-
tery model is incorrect.
This section applies also to spare (backup) batteries.
Battery Operating Environment
Table 3-1 lists the battery operating temperature limits.
Table 3-1 Battery Low and High Temperature Limits
Battery Temperature
Action
Min °C Min °F Max °C Max °F
5°C 41°F 40°C 104°F Nominal operating temperature range.
4°C 39.2°F 44°C 111.24°F Charging Limits - Battery charging is either
shut off or cannot start.
-6°C 39.2°F 54°C 129.2°F Operating Limits - The Battery shuts down
and there is no power to the LD-250 Core.
The LD-250's software alerts you in the Operator Panel and the MobilePlanner software
UIwhen the Battery temperature is within 3°C (37.4°F) of any limit.
It might take several hours for an overheated battery to cool sufficiently to resume operation or
begin charging.
Other considerations apply to these environmental limits:
l
Even at the nominal operating temperature limit, the battery might exceed its upper
charging limit temperature if the LD-250:
l
Is fully loaded.
l
Runs continuously for an hour or longer.
l
If the LD-250 is docked but the battery is too hot to charge:
l
Charging begins only when the battery temperature is within the operating range.
l
Only the docking station power LED illuminates, not the charge LED.
3.3 Before Unpacking
Carefully inspect all shipping boxes and containers for evidence of damage during transit. If
you observe any damage, request that the carrier’s agent is present when you unpack the ship-
ment.
