Powering the Falcon
Battery Pack
The battery pack in the Falcon is a 3.7 V, Lith-
ium Ion battery pack. You will be alerted with a
message dialog box when the battery pack
reaches a low state.
After charging the first time, a complete charge
takes about four (4) hours depending on the bat-
tery pack’s state and the recharging method. A
sample battery pack label is shown at the right.
Stylus
Use the stylus for navigation and to select items on the touch screen, and to
select characters on the on-screen keyboard. Place the stylus in the holder
after use so you don’t lose or misplace it. An optional Stylus Tether is avail-
able for all models.

CAUTION
You must charge the battery pack and backup battery in a dock or with a power
cable prior to your first use of the Falcon. The initial charge time is approximately
24 hours.
If you remove the battery pack or it fails, there is a 30 minute window in which to
insert a charged battery pack before the backup battery fails. If your backup bat-
tery fails, the contents of the RAM memory will be lost. If your backup battery is
less than fully charged, there is a proportionally smaller window of time available
to replace the main battery. Usage time will also be reduced.
Always charge the battery pack within the temperature range of 32°–113°F (0°–
45°C).
Use only the authorized power supplies, battery packs, chargers, and docks sup-
plied by your Datalogic reseller. The use of any other power supplies can damage
the Falcon and void your warranty. Refer to the PRG for the correct power sup-
plies and Accessories.
