Inserting and Removing the Battery Pack
Note: The battery should not be replaced in a dirty, harsh or hazardous environment. When the battery is not connected to the
MX7 Tecton, any dust or moisture that enters the battery well or connector may transfer to the battery/well terminals,
potentially causing damage. Only use Honeywell batteries as replacements: MX7A380BATT / MX7392BATT or a Low
Temperature (CS) Battery : MX7A381BATT / MX7393BATT / MX7396BATTERY.
The MX7 Tecton will not function unless the battery pack is in place and securely latched. Any work in progress should be saved
prior to replacing the battery pack.
Be sure to place the unit in Suspend Mode before removing the battery. Failing to properly place the device in Suspend mode
will result in a loss of all unsaved data.
An MX7 Tecton will retain data, while the main battery is removed and replaced with a fully charged main battery, for 5 minutes.
Note: When internal battery power is Low or Very Low connect the AC/DC adapter to the MX7 Tecton before replacing the main
battery.
Inserting the Battery
To insert the main battery, complete the following steps:
1. Place the MX7 Tecton in Suspend Mode (if On).
2. Detach the bottom hook of the handstrap (if installed).
3. Tilt the end (without the latch) of the fully charged battery pack into the upper end of the battery compartment, and
firmly press the other end down until it is fully inserted into the battery compartment
4. Push down on the battery until the retaining clip clicks into place. The MX7 Tecton draws power from the battery
immediately upon successful connection.
5. Replace the handstrap clip in its holder (if installed).
Removing the Battery
To remove the battery, complete the following steps:
1. Place the MX7 Tecton in Suspend mode (if On).
2. Detach the bottom hook of the handstrap (if installed).
3. Slide the battery retaining clip down to release the main battery.
4. Pull the battery up and out of the battery compartment.
5. Place the discharged battery pack in a powered battery charger to re-charge.
Charging the Main Battery
Note: The MX7 Tecton Battery Charger is designed for an indoor, protected environment.
New batteries must be fully charged prior to use.
The main battery can be recharged in an AC powered Battery Charger after the battery has been removed from the MX7 Tecton
or its packing material when new.
The main battery can be recharged while it is in the MX7 Tecton:
• by connecting the MX7 Tecton AC power adapter to the I/O connector at the base of the MX7 Tecton.
• by docking the MX7 Tecton in a powered desk cradle.
• by docking the MX7 Tecton in a powered vehicle cradle.
• or by connecting the car power adapter (CLA) to the I/O connector at the base of the MX7 Tecton.
Note: An uninterrupted external power source (wall AC adapters) transfers power to the computer’s internal charging circuitry
which, in turn, recharges the main battery and internal battery. Frequent connection to an external power source, if
feasible, is recommended to maintain internal battery charge status as the internal battery cannot be recharged by a dead
or missing main battery.
