>This is Joseph. I have a Classic unit myself. >According to the mPower manual, you should follow this >procedure: >1. Connect the AC adapter. The AC adapter on message >is displayed. >2. Go to Options Menu (SPACE with O) then press SPACE >with I to get into support information mode. >3. Press the letter r for recalibrate. The mPower >will initiate the charging and discharging cycle from >now on. >note: if you haven't connected the adapter already, >mPower will pop up and say that you should connect the >adapter. >4. What mPower does next depends on if the unit is >partially or fully charged. Once the battery is fully >charged. mPower will disconnect the current that is >connected to the battery compartment and will start >the discharging process. Once the battery goes flat, >it'll reconnect the current and will initiate the >charge. >5. After about 10 to 12 hours, mPower will pop up and >say that the battery test is completed. Note: you >should put your unit in a safe place near the wall >outlet. The adapter must be connected at all times. >For further information about the battery and how to >recalibrate it, refer to Chapter 2 of the mPower User >Guide under the heading "Recalibrating the battery." I >hope this information may help you. >p.s. Please note that the battery life might be >shorter on these units because it uses faster >processors. The battery might last about 18 to 20 >hours on mPower versus 20 to 21 hours on a typical >Classic unit. >__________________________________ >Start your day with Yahoo! - Make it your home page! >http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs >___ >To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to >[EMAIL PROTECTED] >To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit >http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote
