12 Mesa 3 Rugged Tablet Powered by Android
Battery Status and Management
Battery icons on the Status bar shows the status of installed batteries. The large battery icon represents the removable battery while a smaller battery icon represents an optional internal battery. The status of these icons follows:
If both the internal and the removable batteries are installed, a bigger battery icon and a smaller battery icon are shown.
If a removable battery is not present, both battery icons are shown, but the larger battery icon has an exclamation mark signifying that it is not present.
If only the removable battery is present, only the large battery icon is shown.
Charging the Battery Pack(s)
For tablets that have both a removable battery pack and an optional internal battery pack, the intelligent internal battery charging circuit first charges the battery pack with the least amount of energy. When this battery pack comes to the same level as the other battery pack, then both battery packs are charged at the same time until they are both fully charged.
Battery packs are charged most efficiently at room temperature (68°F or 20°C). They will not charge if it is too hot or too cold.
Battery Life
Battery life on a full charge is about 12 hours for the removable battery and an additional 5-6 hours for the optional internal battery. Battery life varies depending on the applications used, backlight usage, and radio usage.
The shelf life for battery packs is about one year. The battery packs should be recharged at least once per year. This prevents the battery packs from discharging to a level that might damage the batteries. Battery packs that are not recharged at least every year could fail to work or may have reduced capacity. Battery packs typically last 1,000 to
3,000 charging cycles.

AND RECYCLING
Storage, Maintenance, and Recycling
Follow the instructions in this chapter to properly maintain and recycle the Mesa 3.
Storing the Mesa 3 and Battery Pack
When the tablet is not being charged and is in a sleep state, it draws a small amount of power. This power draw is used to maintain the memory (RAM) of the tablet in the same state it was in when it was awake. We recommend charging the tablet each night or weekend when it is in a sleep state.
Note: Data and programs are secure as long as they have been saved, even if the battery pack becomes discharged.
The tablet does not depend on the battery to store the data for extended periods.
!
!
Storing the Mesa 3 for More than Two Weeks
To store the tablet for two weeks or more, complete the following steps:
1. Charge the battery pack 30 to 50 percent.
2. Close all running programs, and turn off the tablet.
3. Remove the battery pack.
4. If you have an internal battery pack, press and hold the power button for 20 seconds to disconnect it.
5. Place the battery pack in a cool, dry location.
CAUTION: Read the battery warnings in Appendix C.
6. The AC wall charger must be plugged in and connected to the Mesa 3 in order to turn it on after storage.
Protecting the Touchscreen
Protect the touchscreen from impact, pressure, or abrasive substances that could damage it. To further protect the touchscreen, apply a screen protector (optional accessory) using the directions that come with it in the package.
CAUTION: Be sure to replace the screen protector as often as the screen protector instructions recommend.
36 Mesa 2 Rugged Tablet Powered by Android Owner’s Manual
