This device cannot charge/recharge coin cell batteries sealed inside the mobile device, if any. About this Guide This MX9 Battery Charger User's Guide is intended to familiarize the user with the safety and operating instructions necessary to use the MX9 Battery Charger (Model MX9385CHARGER, MX9384CHARGER) to charge rechargeable lithium-ion battery packs (MX9380BATTERY, MX9381BATTERY) .
Do not store the Li-Ion battery pack in direct sunlight or anywhere the battery pack cannot cool down. If the Li-Ion battery pack is hot after removal from the MX9, allow it to cool at room temperature or in a cool air stream before placing it in the charger.
Installation Assemble the Power Supply Assemble the AC adapter for the MX9 Battery Charger before connecting it to the charger. The AC power supply for the battery charger is shipped with the battery charger. Contact Technical Assistance if there is no AC cable.
Setup Prerequisite: The AC Adapter is assembled and receiving AC power. The battery charger should be located in an area where it: Is well ventilated. Is not in high traffic areas. Locates or orients the AC cord so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or subjected to damage or stress. Has enough clearance to allow easy access to the power port on the back of the device.
Charging Batteries New batteries should be charged fully before first use. The life and capacity of a Lithium Ion battery pack can vary significantly depending on the discharge current and the environment in which it is used. When a battery is placed in a charging pocket, the battery charger begins charging the battery. There is a slight delay while the charger evaluates the condition of the battery (ambient temperature, remaining charge, etc.) before charging begins.
Inserting a Battery into the Charging Pocket Caution! It is important that battery packs are inserted into the charging pocket correctly. Inserting the battery incorrectly could result in damage to the battery pack or the charger. Caution! Do not “slam” the battery pack into the charging pocket. Damage may result. When preparing the battery pack for insertion into the battery charging pocket, hold the battery with its four charging contacts in line with the charging contacts in the charging pocket.
Interpreting the Charging Pocket LEDs The status of the charge operation is indicated by the color of the LED for each charging pocket. RED Continuous - on any charge pocket Continuous red means the battery pack is charging. RED FLASHING - on all charge pockets Battery charger fault or failure.
The following is intended as an aid in determining whether the battery pack or the charger may be malfunctioning: Problem Cause Solution Check if the MX9 battery pack has Honeywell part number Different manufacturer's battery pack, Battery pack does not MX9380BATT or MX9381BATT (Low Temperature) on the or there is an object in the charging fit in charging pocket.

Charger Cleaning, Storage and Service Cleaning Unplug the charger from the power source before cleaning or removing debris from charging pockets. Use only mild detergent with a slightly damp cloth to clean the outside of the charger. Do not use solvents or flammable cleaners.
Battery Cleaning, Storage and Service Cleaning The battery pack should not require cleaning unless it has become heavily soiled. Old or damaged batteries should be disposed of promptly and properly. The best way to dispose of used batteries is to recycle them. Battery recycling facilities recover the Nickel, Lithium or Lead from old batteries to manufacture new batteries.
Technical Specifications Electrical Note: Battery packs may leak up to 1mA current through the battery contacts when left in an unpowered battery charger charging pocket.

Chapter 2: Set up a Battery Maintenance Routine Introduction The MX9 uses a 2400 mAh/2200mAh Low-temp battery. Minimum battery life is 500 charge/discharge cycles before replacement. Hand held devices and body worn devices use Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) main battery packs that are lightweight and relatively small.
If the peripheral device does not have its own power source, and is designed to draw power from your MX9 battery, be aware that the way you use the peripheral device affects the drain on your battery. Peripheral devices affect your battery life in the following ways: The number of peripheral devices you use affects the drain on your batteries.
Maintenance Routine Managing your batteries with a battery maintenance routine is intended to ensure: You get as much battery life as you can. You need fewer batteries per shift. Every shift has fully charged batteries. There is a battery slot on the charger for each battery at the end of every shift. All unused batteries are placed in a charger at the end of every shift.
3. Users place all used batteries into battery chargers at the end of every shift. 4. Track battery capacity readings by recording the date of last charge for each battery on the label (or log sheet). Sample Log for Battery Maintenance MX9 Main Battery Charger (MX9 Battery Charger)
