Charging the Ni-MH Batteries
The scanner has a built-in circuit that charges the included
Ni-MH batteries when a USB cable connects it to a computer
(NOT to a USB hub) or to an AC or DC adapter that provides USB
charging power. Verify that the battery selection switch is set to
Ni-MH and that only Ni-MH rechargeable batteries are inserted
in the scanner before connecting it to your computer.
CAUTION: Never attempt to charge non-rechargeable
batteries or install non-rechargeable batteries when
the battery selection switch is set to Ni-MH. The USB
cable will only charge the batteries if the scanner is
turned o.
1. Be sure the scanner is turned o. It will recharge only if it
is turned o, even with the USB cable connecting it to a
computer.
2. Connect the included USB cable to the scanner’s USB port.
3. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the computer's
USB port or to an AC or DC adapter that provides USB
charging power.
NOTE: If you connect to a computer's USB port, the PC will prompt
you for the drivers for your scanner. To download and install these
drivers, go to http://info.uniden.com/UnidenMan4/BC125AT.
4. The scanner displays Charging while it charges the
batteries and Charge Complete when the Ni-MH batteries
are completely charged.
