Charging A Spare Battery
190 Psion Teklogix NEO Hand-Held Computer User Manual
• Slide NEO into the docking station, making certain that the connector on the base of the
hand-held is securely seated on the docking station connector pins. An icon is displayed
in the task bar at the bottom of the hand-held screen indicating that the unit is properly
installed in the station:
The LED on NEO lights up indicating that the unit has external power and battery charging
will begin. It is safe to leave the unit in the desktop docking station while it is not in use – the
battery will not be overcharged.
6.5.3 Charging A Spare Battery
To charge a spare battery:
• Insert the battery in the spare battery charge well at the back of the docking station,
aligning the contacts on the battery with the contacts in the spare battery charge well.
6.5.4 Battery Charge Duration
A NEO inserted in the desktop docking station requires 3 hours to charge the battery to
75% capacity.
The desktop docking station stops applying power to the battery when it is fully charged–
there is no risk of overcharge if the battery remains in the charge well.
6.5.5 Docking Station Charger LED Indicators
The desktop docking station is equipped with a single tri-coloured LED indicator in the
lower-right corner of the front panel that indicates various charge states of the spare battery
installed in the docking station.
Note: To maintain the NEO real time clock for three days, the battery must be charged for
a minimum of two hours (while installed in the hand-held).
Note: To maintain the NEO real time clock for three days, a battery must be charged for at
least two hours while installed in the hand-held; however, if you are charging a
spare battery (not installed in the hand-held), the real time clock three day backup
cannot be maintained until a charged battery is installed in the hand-held computer
for at least two hours.
Note: The specified battery charge times are based on NEO default settings – i.e., display
brightness 50%, keyboard backlight off, 802.11b/g radio on and 23° C temperature.
Additional peripherals and other power consumption features will also alter the
specified charge time.
