IMPRES 2 and IMPRES Batteries and
Chargers
3.1
IMPRES Feature and Benefit Description
The IMPRES 2 energy solution is an advanced Tri-Chemistry energy system developed by Motorola
Solutions that encompasses the following:
● IMPRES 2 and IMPRES batteries
● The IMPRES 2 adaptive charger, and
● IMPRES radios
Charging IMPRES 2 or IMPRES batteries using an IMPRES 2 Adaptive Charger, which periodically calibrates
or reconditions the battery, yields the following benefits:
● Extends battery cycle life.
● Measures battery capacity and determines the current battery state of charge, giving you an indication of
effective use time.
● Monitors the IMPRES 2 or IMPRES battery usage pattern.
● Updates pattern information stored in the IMPRES 2 or IMPRES battery.
● Automatically performs Calibration/Reconditioning only as needed.
● Minimizes IMPRES 2 or IMPRES battery heating, regardless of how long the battery is left in the pocket.
● Periodically "tops off" a battery stored in the charger pocket, maintaining a high state of readiness for the
user.
● Eliminates Nickel battery memory effect, eliminating the need to purchase special equipment or train
personnel in tasks to maintain battery cycle life.
Using this unique patented system, there is no need to track and record IMPRES 2 or IMPRES battery
use, conduct manual Calibration/ Reconditioning, or remove batteries from chargers following completion of
charge.
3.2
IMPRES 2 and IMPRES Battery Initialization
For full IMPRES 2 or IMPRES functionality, you must use the charger to initialize a new IMPRES 2 or
IMPRES battery. The charger automatically detects the new IMPRES 2 or IMPRES battery, and automatically
starts the initialization. Initialization is the first calibration or reconditioning of an IMPRES 2 or IMPRES
battery.
Initialization is a two-phase process:
● The first phase: battery discharge, indicated by a steady amber LED.
● The second phase: full charge, eventually indicated by a steady green LED.
