DLKPro Download Key • Operating Instructions – Edition 03/2012
3 Getting started with the DLKPro
Switching off the DLKPro
Switch off the DLKPro by pressing the on-off
button; see page 4.
Charging the battery
Battery power is needed for
• the real-time clock,
• the integrated chip card reader and
• the screen.
Each time the DLKPro is plugged into the computer, its
battery is automatically charged. During charging, the
LED on the DLKPro flashes orange.
Battery power is not needed to download digital
tachograph data. The download will function irrespective
of the battery’s charge level. If the charge level is very
low, however, use of the screen display will be limited or
even impossible.
If possible, leave the DLKPro plugged into the
computer when you finish working with it – this will
charge the integrated rechargeable battery e. g. for
the next card download.
Creating a backup copy on the
SDHC™ card
If an SDHC™ card is inserted, a backup copy of the data
is stored on it after the data download has finished.
If you require a backup copy, insert an SDHC™
card into the card slot.
The DLKPro screen is facing upwards; the contact
points of the SDHC™ card are facing downwards;
the angled corner is on the right.
Note
: To save battery power, the DLKPro switches
itself off automatically after 20 seconds of inactivity.
Tip
: If you use a USB hub as a DLKPro connection,
make sure that the hub has its own power supply.
Otherwise the DLKPro’s battery can only be charged
with a minimal charging current.
Note
: You can use either an SD™ or an SDHC™ card.
The cards are not included in the package.
When using an SD™ card, please remember that the
card’s memory capacity may not be 128 MB (memory
capacity of the KEYTOOLS partition).
Otherwise the DLKPro will not recognise the existing
partition and the configuration software cannot be
started.
In these Operating Instructions, ‘SDHC™ card’ also
means an ‘SD™ card’.
