• internal non-rechargeable batteries or rechargeable
batteries (not supplied – see “Using Batteries”).
• standard AC power (with an optional AC adapter – see
“Using AC Power”).
• vehicle power (with an optional DC adapter – see “Using
Vehicle Battery Power”).
Connecting an AC or DC adapter to the scanner

rechargeable battery holder.
If you install the rechargeable battery holder, you can
operate the scanner and recharge the rechargeable
