Charging your TI-Nspire™ handhelds using the TI-Nspire™ Wall Adapter
The TI-Nspire™ Wall Adapter (not supplied) can be used to charge the TI-Nspire™
handhelds. The TI-Nspire™ Wall adapter provides a USB outlet and is connected to the
handheld via the USB computer-to-handheld cable.
Make sure the TI-Nspire™ Wall Adapter is designed for Australian mains supply.
Other wall adapters including those designed for overseas may not charge the handheld
or in extreme situations, damage the unit. (Warranty is void if the product is damaged
by an unapproved wall adapter.)

Charging your TI-Nspire™ handhelds using the TI-Nspire™ Docking Station
The TI-Nspire™ Docking Station is designed for classroom use where
multiple handhelds require charging. Information about charge and status
is displayed using a series of LEDs on the TI-Nspire™ Docking Station.
The TI-Nspire™ Docking Station must be connected to a mains
power supply.
The TI-Nspire™ Docking Station can also be used to send files to
multiple handhelds when connected to a computer with the TI-Nspire™ Teacher Edition software or
TI-Nspire™ Navigator™ software installed.
Charging Troubleshooting for TI-Nspire™ handhelds
The most common error when attempting to charge the TI Rechargeable Battery is via a computer.
Termination of power supply to the USB port due to the computer or computer settings prevents the
handheld unit from charging. Charging the TI-Nspire™ handheld for the first time takes between
4 and 6 hours, thereafter charge time depends largely on the status prior to
charging. If charging from a computer does not produce the desired result try:
• Using the approved TI-Nspire™ Wall Adapter
• Resetting the handheld device using the reset button on the reverse.
