Restriction On Hazardous Substances (RoHS)
Directive 2002/95/EC
What is RoHS?
The European Union has mandated that high environmental stan-
dards be met in the design and manufacture of electronic and electri-
cal products sold in Europe, to reduce hazardous substances from
entering the environment. The “Restriction on Hazardous Sub-
stances Directive (RoHS)” prescribes the maximum trace levels of

lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, and flame retardants
PBB and PBDE that may be contained in a product. Only products
meeting these high environmental standards may be “placed on the
market” in EU member states after July 1, 2006.
RoHS Logo
Although there is no legal requirement to mark RoHS-compliant
products, Psion Teklogix Inc. indicates its compliance with the
directive as follows:
The RoHS logo located either on the back of the product or under-
neath the battery in the battery compartment (or on a related acces-
sory such as the charger or docking station) signifies that the product
is RoHS-compliant as per the EU directive. Other than as noted
below, a Psion Teklogix product that does not have an accompany-
ing RoHS logo signifies that it was placed on the EU market prior to
July 1, 2006, and is thereby exempt from the directive.
Note: Not all accessories or peripherals will have a RoHS logo
due to physical space limitations or as a result of their
exempt status.

1. Important
•
Before using the CH4000 Desktop Docking Station, read all
instructions and markings on the housing.
•
Do not operate the AC/DC adaptor and the CH4000 if they
are struck by a sharp blow, dropped, or otherwise damaged in
any way; qualified service personnel should inspect for
internal damage.
Important: SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS—This manual con-
tains important operating and maintenance instruc-
tions for the CH4000 series.
DO NOT EXPOSE TO RAIN OR SNOW! However,
the CH4000 is designed to accept a wet Ikôn Rugged
PDA without harmful effect.
The CH4000 storage temperature is -30°C to +60°C
(-22°F to 140°F). Operating humidity and tempera-
ture is 5 - 95% non-condensing and 0°C to 40°C
(32°F to 104°F).
Important: This docking station cannot be used with non-Ikôn
PDAs. Although they may share the same battery ter-
minating connector, they are designed with different
applications in mind.
Important: THE POWER SUPPLY SHALL BE

cord must be used, make sure:
- the plug pins on the extension cord are the same
number, size, and shape as those on the adaptor,
- the extension cord is properly wired and in good
electrical condition, and that the wire size is larger

2. CH4000 Introduction
Important: To preserve battery integrity, the desktop docking
station will proceed with a charge only when the
battery temperature falls between 0°C and 40°C
(32°F to 104°F).
The CH4000 desktop docking station is a desktop model
designed to:
•
•
•
Fast charge the internal battery.
Fast charge the spare battery pack (see Figure 2.1 on page 5).
Supply Type A and Type B USB connectivity to the Ikôn (see
Figure 3.1 on page 7).
The desktop docking station provides sufficient power to concur-
rently support all the above functions.
The CH4000 uses careful charge algorithms designed to maximize
battery life while ensuring the shortest possible charge time. The
charger supports proprietary Psion Teklogix Smart Batteries and
handles a range of voltages and charge algorithms. See the appropri-
ate Ikôn user manual for more information regarding battery capac-
ity, charge times and battery life, for the Ikôn battery. See “Charging
The Spare Battery” on page 6 for spare battery charge information.

3. Desktop Docking Station Operation
3.1 Charging The Ikôn Battery
The CH4000 supplies DC power to enable the Ikôn internal fast
charger. Normally, it takes 2.5 to 3.0 hours to charge the Ikôn
5000 mAh battery.
When installed in the dock, the Ikôn battery charge LED will illumi-
nate to indicate the unit has external power and may charge the inter-
nal battery. The Ikôn charge indication follows the same convention
as the charger's spare battery indicator (see Figure 2.1 on page 5).
Note: Battery charging continues whether the Ikôn is switched on
or off.
3.2 Charging The Spare Battery
•
Install the battery in the rear slot of the CH4000 with the con-
nector facing to the right. Slide the battery in and down to
mate the connector.
•
•
•
The CH4000 spare battery LED lights up immediately.
During charge the LED will be flashing green.
When the battery capacity reaches 95%, the LED turns
solid green.
The charge stops when the battery is fully charged and the
LED remains green. There is no risk of overcharge if the bat-
tery remains in the charge slot.
A full charge will take 2.5 to 3.0 hours for a 5000 mAh battery.

3.3 Operating The USB Dock
The CH4000 Desktop Docking Station offers a rear-mounted host or
device USB connection to the Ikôn. The Ikôn supports communica-
tion with low- and full-speed USB 1.1 compliant devices and hosts
through the docking station.
®
The Type A receptacle may be used for ActiveSync among other
applications typical for a Type A port (see Figure 3.1).
Move the sliding door selector to alternate between the Type A and
Type B USB ports.

4. Cleaning The CH4000
Important: Do not immerse the unit in water. Dampen a soft
cloth with mild detergent to wipe the unit clean.
•
Use only mild detergent or soapy water on a slightly damp
cloth to clean the CH4000. Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents
or strong chemicals for cleaning. The plastic case is suscepti-
ble to harsh chemicals. The plastic is partially soluble in oils,
mineral spirits and gasoline. The plastic slowly decomposes
in strong alkaline solutions.
•
To clean ink marks from the label, use isopropyl alcohol.
5. Troubleshooting
5.1 Docking Station Does Not Seem To
Power On.
•
When first connected to the DC power supply, the spare
charger LED should turn ON and remain on for 3 seconds.
•
If not, the charger is defective and requires service.
5.2 The Ikôn Charge Indicator LED Stays Off.
When an Ikôn is docked into a powered CH4000 and its charge indi-
cator LED stays off, there could be a problem with the Ikôn or with
the docking station. Use an Ikôn with a properly functioning charge
indicator to isolate the problem.

5.3 The Ikôn Charge Indicator LED Is Fast
Flashing Green.
If the Ikôn charge indicator fast flashes green when the Ikôn
is docked:
•
Remove the Ikôn and disconnect the adaptor DC
power cable.
•
•
Wait at least 20 seconds, and then plug the cable in again.
If the Ikôn indicator still shows a fault, the Ikôn
requires service.
5.4 Spare Battery LED Fast Flashes Green With A
Battery Installed.
•
Try inserting a battery that is known to be working with
another charger.
•
If the charge slot LED continues to fast flash green with the
known working battery, the charger is defective and
requires service.
•
Your Psion Teklogix battery and desktop docking station are
carefully designed for safety and capacity performance in
accordance with IEEE 1725. If the battery or charger are not
Psion Teklogix approved products, or the safety mechanism is
faulty, the spare charge slot LED or Ikôn LED will rapidly
flash green.
5.5 Spare Battery LED Does Not Turn On When A
Battery Is Installed.
•
Inspect the charge slot contacts for damage (are they bent,
flattened, twisted or broken?).
•
Reinstall the battery and check that it is fully seated in
the slot.

•
•
Try inserting a battery that you know to be working in the
charger slot.
Disconnect and reconnect the DC adaptor, and check that the
spare battery LED indicator flashes at power-up.
If the charge slot fails to charge the known working battery, it
is defective and requires service.
