Industry Compliance
As of the date of manufacture the TPMC-8X-BTP has been tested and
found to comply with specifications for CE marking and standards per
EMC and Radiocommunications Compliance Labelling.
Handling
NOTE: The TPMC-8X-BTP contains a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery.
When the unit can no longer retain a charge, it must be recycled or
disposed of properly. Follow local ordinances and/or regulations for
disposal.
To prevent damage to multi-pin connector and wiring, use care when
handling the TPMC-8X-BTP.
Storage
The TPMC-8X-BTP can be stored in a temperate, dry place (removed
from the touchpanel and docking station) indefinitely without significant
irreversible degradation of its performance. The self-discharge rate is a
function of temperature and internal resistance. High temperature storage
reduces charge retention. Best results occur if the TPMC-8X-BTP is
stored at an optimal temperature of 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C). After an
extended period of storage, initiate a few charge/discharge cycles to
restore full capacity.

Setup
Charging
NOTE: A Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery typically provides 300-500
charge/discharge cycles.
There are two ways to charge the TPMC-8X-BTP:
• Install the TPMC-8X-BTP in a TPMC-8X touchpanel and connect
the touchpanel to an AC source using its AC adapter or
• Install the TPMC-8X-BTP in a TPMC-8X touchpanel and mount
the touchpanel on an AC powered TPMC-8X-DS Docking
Station/Charger (sold separately).
NOTE: The battery pack may take up to three hours to charge in a
powered touchpanel if the panel is in use during charging.
NOTE: When the external battery pack (TPMC-8X-BTPE, sold
separately) is attached, both the internal and external battery packs charge
simultaneously.
Installation
Use the following procedure to install the TPMC-8X-BTP in a TPMC-8X
touchpanel:
1. Place the touchpanel screen-side down on a clean, soft surface.
2. Remove the two Phillips head screws that hold the internal battery
compartment cover on the rear of the touchpanel.
3. Place the TPMC-8X-BTP in the battery compartment oriented so
the multi-pin connector is in the upper left corner.

be used for extended periods, move the switch to the down (off)
position. (Refer to illustration on the following page.)
