If all LED indicators except charging LED blinking at the same time, it indicates the battery is too low to turn on the reader.

In this case, charge the reader enough.




Charge with Cradle(Only RF850)

If you plugged the PM85 to RF850, you can use a cradle(optional accessory) to charge the device.

Place the device into the cradle as below image. 


DIFFERENCE

If you use the cradle to charge, the PM85 and RF850 will charge at the same time.

But if you use USB Type-C, Only RF850(or RF800) will charge.
