Figure 27 Multicharger / Analyzer
Use the multicharger to charge battery packs outside of the MX6 PPC. A complete single battery
charge using the charger takes three (3) hours. As soon as the battery is placed in the slot,
charging begins.
The multicharger must be connected to AC power before charging can begin. The
Charge/Analyze slot begins charging a battery as soon as it is inserted. Pressing the Analyze
button starts the battery analyze cycle on the battery in the Charge/Analyze slot.
The Status LED indicates the charge status of the battery in the slot. Green: has completed
charging. Orange: charging. Red: encountered an error (battery pack may be outside temperature
range).
Lower the battery pack straight into the battery charger pocket and push it down firmly. Do not
"slam" the battery into the charging bay or drop it into the bay. Failure to follow these instructions
can result in damage to the main battery or the charger.
Charging a Battery Using the Desktop Docking Cradle
The Desk Mount Cradle has an Auxiliary Battery Well that is used to charge a single Li-Ion
battery in the charged desk mount docking cradle. The MX6 PPC unit does not have to be in the
main charging well because each charger operates independently of the other. The spare battery
will charge in four hours. The cradle senses when a battery pack is fully charged and
automatically switches to maintain the battery at full capacity indefinitely.
How To Charge a Spare Battery Pack
1. Insert the end of the battery without the locking tab into the bottom of the auxiliary well
opening.
2. Snap the battery into place with a hinging motion.
3. Once the battery is inserted, observe the Aux Battery LED to monitor the charging process.
See the following section titled “Docking Cradles” for further information.
