Charging System

The Wolf has 2 different battery sources that need charging power.
There is an internal battery for the Pocket PC and removable batteries
for the receiver module. The 4 AA Ni-MH receiver batteries may only
be charged using the supplied fast charger or another comparable
Ni-MH charger. The Compaq iPAQ internal battery may be charged
by either plugging in the supplied power transformer or by inserting
the iPAQ PDA into the supplied charging / data transfer cradle. The
BVS supplied charger will

power

the

Wolf receiver

AND

power and

charge

the

iPAQ PDA

. Batteries for the Wolf receiver (4 AA cells) must

be charged in the provided charger. See Compaq’s documentation for
complete charging instructions.

Troubleshooting

If your Wolf is not responding, be sure to check all battery and cable
connections. Check Compact Flash end of connector that slides into
top of iPAQ and other end of cable that connects to Wolf receiver

To access batteries under iPAQ:
1. Slide iPAQ back and away from antenna end of receiver. Be sure
not to pull too hard or crimp the cable in any way. NEVER remove the
Compact Flash connector from the iPAQ sled unless troubleshooting
for connectivity issues.

2. Flip over iPAQ exposing the battery compartment on the top of the
Wolf receiver.

3. Pull up tab on battery cover to expose 4 Ni-MH AA batteries. Change
these batteries for fresh Ni-MH batteries and repeat steps above in
reverse order.

• Cannot Open Com Port or System Not Responding – Try restarting
the application. If the system locks up completely,

press the small

reset button

located at the bottom of your iPAQ. See Compaq’s usage

instructions for more info on performing a hard reset.

• Wolf software is missing or corrupted -
You can find the Wolf application in the BVS Software CD (red writing)
included with your Wolf. Re-install your Wolf software.

Users may experience COM PORT communication problems when
moving from Bird’s Eye Site Surveyor to Wolf Data Logger in Pocket
PC 2002. This may be remedied by simply

pushing the reset switch

on

the bottom of the iPAQ.
