page 11).
3. Link to the Base Station (see
page 12).

page 28).
5. Configure the Reader starting on

CHARGING THE BATTERIES
Once the BC96XX is powered, you can charge the reader's batteries. Place the Power-
Scan™ PM96XX into the BC96XX base station. The LEDs on the base station/battery
charger turn green and flash orange / green when recharging begins.
The battery is completely charged when the Reader LED on the base station/battery
charger turns green.
The battery can also be charged using the Multi Battery Charger accessory.
NOTE: According to recent modification of Regulation for shipping Li-Ion
based battery packs, the products and their spare battery packs parts are
shipped with a very low residual charge (low state of charge).
Hence the needs:
• that a new product must be fully recharged before starting to use it.
and
• that battery packs of the stocked products PM96xx and spare battery
pack parts must be periodically recharged. For instance, by using a
BC96xx base station powered up with a 12V Datalogic AC/DC adapter
(cod.8-0935) for at least 30 minutes each 3 months.
The Battery Status information can be easily retrieved
by doubletapping with your fingers on top of the head
of the scanner
NOTE: The PowerScan PM96XX may get warm during charging: this is nor-
mal and does not mean a malfunction.
NOTE: Before using the battery, read "Battery Safety" page 4. Datalogic
recommends annual replacement of rechargeable battery packs to ensure
maximum performance.
