Abstract
A charging system is incorporated in a computer communicable through a predetermined communication channel with a wireless peripheral device having a predetermined identification code. The charging system includes a charging device mounted to and in electrical connection with the computer. The charging device has a positive terminal, a negative terminal and a reset terminal. A rechargeable device is mounted in the wireless peripheral device. The rechargeable device includes a positive terminal, a negative terminal and a reset terminal corresponding to and engageable with the terminals of the charging device. The wireless peripheral device is selectively attached to the computer with the terminals engage each other to conduct an electrical current from the computer to the rechargeable device of the peripheral device and to reset/identify the communication channel and the identification code.
