Power System

Charging the Battery for the First Time

The 

MT680-AMWTAG 

is equipped with a Lithium-Ion battery. The 

MT680-AMWTAG

 may not power on 

after long storage periods without an external power adapter, due to battery discharge. In this case, connect 
the 

MT680-AMWTAG

 to the power adapter and recharge the device for about 12 hours.

NOTE:

The 

MT680-AMWTAG

 can operate for approximately two hours (depending on the hard

-

ware configuration and backlight usage) or can store data for 24 hours without external power. 
Operating the 

MT680-AMWTAG

’s backlight screen at 100 percent brightness consumes the 

most power. Therefore, when the 

MT680-AMWTAG

 disconnects from its external power source

it will enter into sleep mode, which automatically turns off the backlight. Tapping the touch-
screen will set the backlight screen to minimum brightness, saving battery power.

.

This status icon 

 appears on the 

MT680-AMWTAG

’s task-bar indicating the low 

battery status. The 

MT680-AMWTAG 

 will enter 

suspend mode when the battery level reaches 
Low status, and the 

MT680-AMWTAG

 will enter 

sleep mode when the battery level reaches Very 
Low status. There is a 12 hour time window to 
recharge the 

MT680-AMWTAG

, but after this 

time period there is a strong risk of losing all the 

MT680-AMWTAG's internal memory

This icon 

 appears in the taskbar when the bat-

tery is Very Low and the battery should be 
recharged as soon as possible.

CAUTION!

Immediately backup the

 

MT680-AMWTAG

’s data or risk losing 

everything when there is no external 
power, and the 

Main Batteries Very 

Low

 warning window appears.
