Cause:
When charging Ni-MH batteries for the first time after long-term stor-
age, deactivation of reactants may lead to increased battery voltage and
decreased capacity, (which causes premature termination of charging).
Because batteries are chemical products involving internal chemical reac-
tions, performance deteriorates with prolonged storage. This is normal in
Ni-MH batteries.

The first-time charge of the Ni-MH Rechargeable Battery Pack should take
approximately 2 hours. If the Receiver Dock light turns green, indicating a
full charge, in less than 2 hours, repeat the charge cycle as follows:

First-time Charge:
1. To begin charging, place the instrument on the Charge Dock. Refer to
your instrument’s User Guide for details.
2. When the charge light turns green, remove the W-LAN Receiver from
the dock and place back on the dock after several seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 three or four times or until the combined charge
time is 2 hours.

Power must remain on during logging
or else data might be corrupted.
NEVER LEAVE THE IPAQ ON FOR EXTENDED TIMES (10 HOURS OR GREATER)
WITHOUT EXTERNAL POWER. ALWAYS SAVE ANY DATA AND THEN TURN OFF
IPAQ (TOP RIGHT POWER BUTTON) WHEN NOT IN USE. NOT DOING SO WILL
RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE IPAQ’S INTERNAL BATTERY.

NOTE: In order to prevent the Ipaq from freezing when running Wolf soft-
ware (therefore rendering the power button useless), make sure to:
1. ALWAYS leave the checkboxes in the SETTINGS/SYSTEM/POWER
screen unchecked. Power-save mode will lock up the application due
to the fact that the application is stopped while communicating with
the hardware..
2. Make sure that the battery level on the Ipaq remains above 40%.
The serial card interface may cease to operate when the battery level
is under 40%.
To resolve the freeze, simply press the soft reset button on the bottom
of the Ipaq with the stylus.
