Getting Started

Getting Started
Before using the Pegaso for the first time, you must install the Battery Pack into the unit, then charge both the Battery Pack and the Backup Battery. See Install­ing the Battery Pack on page 6 for instructions
You must charge the battery pack and backup battery in a dock or
with a power cable prior to your first use of the Pegaso. The initial
charge time is approximately 4 hours. See Charging the Batteries on
CAUTION
page 8 for more information.
.

Powering the Pegaso

Battery Pack

The battery pack in the Pegaso is a 3.7 V, 2200 mAh or 3300 mAh Lithium Ion battery pack. A message dialog box will appear when the battery pack reaches a low state.
After charging the first time, a complete charge takes about four (4) hours depending on the bat­tery pack’s state and the recharging method. A sample battery pack label is shown at right. The label on your unit may vary from the illustration.

Li-Ion 3.7V 2200mAh (High Capacity 3300mAh) CAUTION: Do not short circuit, disassemble, incinerate or mutilate pack. Datalogic Mobile, Inc Made in China P/N: xxxx-xxxx (High Capacity P/N: xxxx-xxxx)
S/N: xxxxxx
You must charge the battery pack and backup battery in a dock or
with a power cable prior to your first use of the Pegaso. The initial
charge time is approximately 4 hours.
If you remove the battery pack or it fails, there is a 30-minute window
CAUTION
in which to insert a charged battery pack before the backup battery
fails. If your backup battery fails, the contents of the RAM memory
will be lost. If your back-up battery is less than fully charged, there is
a smaller window of time available. Usage time will be reduced, also.
Always charge within temperature range of 32°–113°F (0°–40°C). Reg-
ularly charging near the temperature limits will increase the time nec-
essary to fully charge the battery, and will shorten the battery’s useful
life.
Use only the authorized power supplies, battery packs, chargers, and
docks supplied by your Datalogic reseller. The use of other power
supplies can damage the unit and void your warranty. Refer to the
PRG for the correct power supplies and Accessories.
Quick Reference Guide 5
Powering the Pegaso
Lithium-ion battery packs may get hot, explode, ignite, or/and cause
serious injury if exposed to abusive conditions.
Do not place the battery in or near fire, direct sunlight, or other
high temperature locations, or heat the battery.
WARNING
Do not connect the positive terminal and negative terminal of the
battery to each other with any metal object (such as wire or coin).
Do not expose the battery to liquids, or allow to get wet.
Do not disassemble, modify, or pierce the battery. The battery con-
tains safety and protection devices, which, if damaged, may cause
the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite.
In the event the battery leaks and the fluid gets into your eye, do not
rub the eye. Rinse well with water and immediately seek medical care.
If left untreated, the battery fluid could cause damage to the eye.
Datalogic recommends annual replacement of rechargeable battery
packs to ensure maximum performance.

Installing the Battery Pack

When you first remove the Pegaso from the box, you must charge
both the battery pack and the backup battery for a minimum of 4
hours.
The Pegaso’s Battery and its cover are integrated — they do not come apart.
Complete the following instructions to install the battery pack:
1. Loosen the elastic handstrap by releasing it from the bottom of the unit (refer to the PRG).
2. Orient the battery pack with the latch facing toward the top of the Pegaso (refer to
Figure 2 on page 7).
3. Replace the battery door by inserting the bottom tab into the unit, then clicking the latch into place. If the battery pack is installed incorrectly, it will not seat properly.
4. Replace the handstrap at the bottom of the unit.
