Single Slot Dock
Read this manual carefully before performing any type of
connection from the terminal to a host PC using the Single
Slot Dock.
The user is responsible for any damages caused by
incorrect use of the equipment or by inobservance of the
indication supplied in this manual.
NOTE
Do not attempt to disassemble the Single Slot Dock, as it
does not contain parts that can be repaired by the user.
Any tampering will invalidate the warranty.
NOTE
The Single Slot Dock paired with a Falcon X3 mobile computer builds a
reading system for the collection, decoding and transmission of barcoded
data.
The Single Slot Dock is both a USB and a serial communication adapter
between the terminal and the host computer.
The Single Slot Dock also functions as a battery charger, both for the
terminal and the spare battery pack. The spare battery can be charged by
inserting it into the slot at the back of the dock.
Power supply is required for the Falcon X3 to be connected to the dock
and for battery recharging operations.
