40 Chapter 4: Setup and Operation
Using AC Power/Charging Battery
The battery charges when the system is connected to the AC power supply. If the system is off or in the sleep state
(display off), a completely discharged battery will fully charge in 2.5 to 3.5 hours. If the system is on and in the
freeze state, a completely discharged battery will fully charge in 5 to 6 hours. If the system is in the imaging state,
the battery is trickle charged at a very low rate and would take several days to fully charge.
Note: To minimize recharging time, turn the system off.
The system can run on AC power and charge the battery in three ways.
• Connected directly to the system
• Connected to the mini-dock (See the Mini-Dock User Guide.)
• Connected to the MDS (See the MDS User Guide or MDS Lite User Guide.)
Battery Charge Indicators
The Battery Charge Indicator, a battery icon located on the upper right hand section of the display, indicates the
current battery level.
• All Battery Indicator segments lit mean the system battery is fully charged.
• Some Battery Indicator segments lit mean the system battery is partially charged.
• When the battery is charging the Battery Indicator segments light sequentially.
Table 4.3 contains the charging specifications for the system.
WARNING:
The equipment shall be connected to a center-tapped single phase supply circuit when users in
the United States connect the equipment to a 240V supply system.
Caution:
Verify the hospital supply voltage corresponds to the power supply voltage range. See “Electrical”
on page 19.
