General information and battery lifetime

In TRIOS 6 and TRIOS 5 scanner box, you will receive 3 batteries. Battery has 5 LED lights indicating battery status, each light represents 20% of the battery capacity. To quickly check battery status, simply shake or gently tap the battery and lights will appear. 

When you insert a charged battery, the scanner starts automatically. A fully charged battery gives approximately up to 45minutes of continuous scanning. Please note that this can vary depending on several factors, such as battery age, temperature, scanner software, etc. 

After a few minutes of inactivity, the scanner will automatically go to sleep mode to preserve battery. Battery will last for more than 7 days in sleep mode.

Battery lifetime:

• Approximately 80% after 600 cycles and 70% after 1000 cycles.
• 3Shape suggests considering battery pack replacement after 1000 cycles.
   

Charging 

The battery charger has 2 slots. It is assumed that 2 batteries are in the charger and the 3rd one is inserted into the scanner (unless you are traveling). Also, this generation of TRIOS battery chargers has a fan to keep it cool, prevent overheating and enable faster charging. 

While charging is ongoing each LED will light up one at a time. The battery status will then be shown, with each LED representing 20% battery capacity. Once battery is fully charged, you will see 5 constant lights.

It takes less than 2 hours of charging to reach 100% battery charge: 60 minutes to achieve 80% battery power and the last 20% requires approximately another 1 hour of charging.  

Batteries can remain in the charger connected to a power source and will not be overcharged.

Note: Low battery will also be indicated with LED ring turning yellow.

Note: When you receive your TRIOS 6 or TRIOS 5 system, batteries include a sticker which needs to be removed. Please charge the batteries before first use.
