Please observe the two different battery status lights. When the amber
status light on the iPAQ blinks, it is being charged and when it is on
solid, it is fully charged. When there is no status light on iPAQ, there is
no charge current. The charger status lights (label on back of charging
station) only indicate the status of the Ni-MH battery pack inserted into
the charger itself. Batteries may be charged using the charger station but
NOT ALL AT THE SAME TIME. Insert battery pack (pull tab up) into charger
only when charging the battery pack itself. A battery pack must NOT be
inserted into charger when trying to power or charge the iPAQ’s internal
battery or the YellowjacketPLUS’ internal battery pack. The included
charger may only be used to charge the included Ni-MH battery pack.
NOT Ni-CAD batteries. Batteries that are warm or hot to the touch (from
constant usage or warm ambient temperatures) will take longer to charge
than batteries of a normal temperature. Only use Ni-MH batteries with
1600 mAH or more rating. Expect over 500 cycles from each Ni-MH pack.
Below are some popular charging configurations.
Configuration 1 - charging YellowjacketPLUS removable battery pack and iPAQ internal battery
Configuration 2 - charging removable battery pack inside charger
X
When the charger is plugged in and has
power to it, this setup will power the
Yellowjacket PLUS and simultaneously
charge the iPAQ and internal battery
pack (pack inside Yellowjacket PLUS
unit).
When the charger is plugged in and has power to it,
this setup will only charge the battery pack inside the
charger station. The Yellowjacket PLUS will operate
in this configuration but will receive NO current for
power or charging internal battery in iPAQ or internal
battery pack (inside Yellowjacket PLUS).
Avoid this configuration as it will
charge only one battery pack (pack
inside charger) and nothing else.
