Quad Docking Station – (Model # PX3004) can charge the battery of up to four NEOs
inserted in the docking station.
The charge time required to make NEO ready for use varies depending on the type of
docking station used. A hand-held inserted in a docking station requires 3 hours to charge
the battery to 75% capacity. NEO is equipped with an intelligent charging system that pro-
tects the battery from over-charging by terminating the charge process when the battery is at
maximum capacity.
