3. A flashing amber LED on the iPAQ indicates charging is in progress. When the
amber LED becomes constant, the iPAQ (main) battery is fully charged. The SPS
3000 (external) battery begins charging at this time.
Display the Power settings screen to view charging status (see Checking Battery Power on
page 2-7).
Note:The SPS 3000 battery begins charging only after the iPAQ (main)
battery is fully charged. The total charge time for both batteries can
take up to 5 hours when both batteries are completely discharged.
