1. 2. Press the battery down until it snaps into place. Insert the battery, bottom first, into the battery compartment in the back of the device. Charging the Device Use one of the following accessories to charge the device and/or spare battery. 14 DRAFT TC52 Quick Start Guide Table 1 Charging and Communication Description Part Number CRD-TC52-1SCU-01 1-Slot USB/Charge Only Cradle Kit 5-Slot Charge Only Cradle Kit CRD-TC52-5SCHG-01 CRD-TC52-5SC4B-01 4-Slot Charge Only Cradle with Battery Charger Kit 5-Slot Ethernet Cradle Kit 4-Slot Battery Charger Kit Rugged Charge/USB Cable CRD-TC52-5SETH-01 SAC-TC52-4SCHG-01 CBL-TC52-USB1-01 Charging Battery

To charge the main battery, connect the charging accessory to the appropriate power source. 2. Insert the device into a cradle or attach to a cable. The device turns on and begins charging. The Charging/Notification LED blinks amber while charging, then turns solid green when fully charged. The 4,300 mAh (typical) / 4,050 mAh (minimum) battery charges from fully depleted to 90% in approximately 2.5 hours and from fully depleted to 100% in approximately three hours. In many cases the 90% charge provides plenty of charge for daily use. A full 100% charge lasts for approximately 14 hours of use. To achieve the best charging results use only Zebra charging accessories and batteries. Charge batteries at room temperature with the device in sleep mode. Charging the Spare Battery Insert a spare battery into the spare battery slot. 1. 2. Ensure the battery is seated properly. The Spare Battery Charging LED blinks indicating charging. See Table 2 for charging indicators. The 4,300 mAh (typical) / 4,050 mAh (minimum) battery charges from fully depleted to 90% in approximately 2.3 hours and from fully depleted to 100% in approximately three hours. In many cases the 90% charge provides plenty of charge for daily use. A full 100% charge lasts for approximately 14 hours of use. To achieve the best charging results use only Zebra charging accessories and batteries. 15 DRAFT TC52 Quick Start Guide Table 2 Charging/Notification LED Charging Indicators State LED Indication Off Slow Blinking Amber (1 blink every 4 seconds) Slow Blinking Red (1 blink every 4 seconds) Solid Green Solid Red Fast Blinking Amber (2 blinks/second) Fast Blinking Red (2 blinks/second) Device is not charging.

Charging complete. Charging complete but the battery is at end of useful life. Charging error, e.g.:
Temperature is too low or too high. Charging has gone on too long without completion
(typically eight hours). Charging error but the battery is at end of useful life., e.g.:
Temperature is too low or too high. Charging has gone on too long without completion
(typically eight hours). Charge batteries in temperatures from 0C to 40C (32F to 104F). The device or cradle always performs battery charging in a safe and intelligent manner. At higher temperatures (e.g. approximately +37C (+98F)) the device or cradle may for small periods of time alternately enable and disable battery charging to keep the battery at acceptable temperatures. The device and cradle indicates when charging is disabled due to abnormal temperatures via its LED. 16 DRAFT TC52 Quick Start Guide 1-Slot USB Charging Cradle Power LED 17 DRAFT TC52 Quick Start Guide 5-Slot Charge Only Cradle Device Charging Slot Power LED 18 DRAFT TC52 Quick Start Guide 4-Slot Charge Only Cradle with Battery Charger Spare Battery Charging LED Device Charging Slot Spare Battery Slot Power LED 19 DRAFT TC52 Quick Start Guide 5-Slot Ethernet Cradle Device Charging Slot 1000 LED 100/100 LED 4-Slot Battery Charger Spare Battery Slot Power LED Spare Battery Charging LEDs (4) 20 DRAFT TC52 Quick Start Guide Rugged Charge/USB Cable Scanning To read a barcode, a scan-enabled application is required. The device contains the DataWedge application that allows the user to enable the imager, decode the barcode data and display the barcode content. 1. Ensure that an application is open on the device and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field). 21 DRAFT TC52 Quick Start Guide 2. Point the exit window on the top of the device at a barcode. Figure 1 Imager Scanning 3. Press and hold the scan button. The red LED aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming. NOTE: When the device is in Picklist mode, the imager does not decode the barcode until the crosshair or aiming dot touches the barcode. 22 DRAFT TC52 Quick Start Guide 4. Ensure the barcode is within the area formed by the cross-hairs in the aiming pattern. The aiming dot is used for increased visibility in bright lighting conditions. Figure 2 Aiming Pattern Figure 3 Pick List Mode with Multiple Barcodes in Aiming Pattern 5. The Data Capture LED lights green and a beep sounds, by default, to indicate the barcode was decoded successfully. 6. Release the scan button. NOTE: Imager decoding usually occurs instantaneously. The device repeats the steps required to take a digital picture
(image) of a poor or difficult barcode as long as the scan button remains pressed. 7. The barcode content data displays in the text field. 23 DRAFT TC52 Quick Start Guide Ergonomic Considerations Figure 4 Ergonomic Considerations AVOID EXTREME WRIST ANGLES 24 DRAFT
