The Single Dock 107
E-EQ-MX2RG-L-ARC MX2 Reference Guide
Using a Single Dock
Set up the Single Dock as described in the preceding sections. Place the MX2 into the dock, with
the keypad facing the front. If you are using a power adapter, the green LED labeled READY on
the front panel of the Single Dock should light up.
Note: If the
READY light does not come on, make sure the POWER light is on and the MX2 is fully
inserted into the dock, with the keypad facing out. If it still doesn’t work, make sure the
power adapter is securely attached to the MX2 and that the contacts in the dock are
clean. (If you are not using a power adapter, the light will not come on.)
While the MX2 is in the Single Dock, you can download programs to it or upload data from it just
as if it were connected directly to your computer.
If you are using a nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery pack in the MX2, you can use the Single
Dock to recharge the batteries. Simply leave the battery pack in the MX2 when you place it in the
dock. The battery pack and the lithium backup battery will be recharged while the READY light is
on. The charging time is 3 to 8 hours, depending on the type of battery pack and the current
charging level.
Charging Batteries
To charge the rechargeable batteries in a MX2, place the MX2 into a dock that is connected to a
power supply. The dock does not need to be connected to a computer.
Transferring Files
You can transfer files with the REMDISK and REMSERV utilities. For more information on
these utilities, please refer to Chapter 4, “Commands”.
