Powering the HiPer+
You can power the HiPer+ using:
• Internal batteries
• External batteries
• A battery charger
Internal batteries
With a full charge, the HiPer+ internal batteries should
power both the GPS receiver, the Bluetooth module, and the
PDL radio modem for at least 11.5 working hours. If the
internal radio modem is turned off, the HiPer+ GPS receiver
should run at least 13.5 hours with fully charged on-board
batteries.
1. Plug the power/charger cable into the power input port.
2. Plug the power/charger cable into an available outlet.
CAUTION
Use a grounded, main socket outlet.
3. Press the Reset key on the receiver. This will ensure that
the receiver is in Normal mode for charging. The receiver
will not charge in Zero Power Mode (see “Zero Power
Mode” on page 4-20 for more information).
4. Leave overnight. A six-hour charge will charge the
batteries about 90%. A seven-hour charge will fully
charge the receiver. The internal batteries cannot be
overcharged.
The speed of the charge depends on the Power and Charger
settings on the PC-CDU Receiver Configuration screen, and
whether the receiver is turned off or on. See “Power
Management” on page 2-15 for more information on these
settings.
