When you connect the Tablet PC to AC power with the battery installed, the 
system automatically charges the battery until it reaches full charge (100%).
The Battery Status LED glows steady amber while the battery is charging 
and changes to steady green when charging is complete. 
WARNING: To avoid personal injury, if the battery is overheated, wait 
until it cools to room temperature before recharging or replacing it with 
another battery.
To charge the battery at any time, including while you’re working:
1. Plug the AC power adapter into the Motion M1200, then into a wall 
outlet or power strip. (Completely recharging the battery may take up 
to two hours, although the battery reaches an 80% charge in much 
less time.)
2. To check the battery power, move the Pen over the 
Power/Battery icon. This shows you the number of 
hours of battery power and the percentage of battery 
power left. (The blue area on the battery icon shrinks as 
the battery runs down.)
3. Or, turn the Tablet PC over to view the battery gauge on the bottom 
of the Tablet PC. 
4. Press the button next to the battery gauge. If all five LEDs are green, 
the battery is fully charged.
