Electrical Warnings, Safety
Precautions & Regulatory Statements
Electrical Warnings
To ensure safe operation when using the standard 110/220 VAC Power supply, the
three prong electrical plug must be inserted into a standard three prong electrical
power plug. The power plug should be grounded through the normal wiring.
WARNING
During installation, make sure that the main outlet socket is easily accessible; this
allows users to remove the dock from the power supply by unplugging the unit.
Only three-prong, grounded extension cords should be used. Improperly wired
extension cords are a major cause of fatalities!
Only use PSC approved accessories and peripherals.
Safety Precautions
The PSC Falcon 4400 Series is a powerful, compact, rugged data terminal,
ready for installation in mobile environments using the Powered Vehicle
Dock. However, there are some safety precautions you should take to protect
the terminal from unnecessary damage.
Do not place the terminal near a television or radio receiver.
Keep the terminal away from magnets and from magnetic fields.

download them from the PSC website listed on the back cover of this manual.
The procedures describe installation for most standard mounting applications;
however, if your target installation does not generally match any of the mounting
options detailed, contact PSC for technical support regarding a custom installation.
Features of the Powered Vehicle Dock
•Power On Indicator
• Rugged holder for the Falcon terminal

Electrical Considerations
Electrostatic Build-up
One common characteristic of forklifts is the possibility of producing high levels of electrostatic voltage. Static is created by the wheels as they move about
the floor and can also be generated when an operator slides on or off of a vehicle's cloth-covered seat. Static buildup on the forklift frame can be as high as
several thousand volts (see Figure 2). At these levels of high voltage, a discharge
can cause severe damage to electronic devices.
Figure 2. Static Build-up on a Forklift Frame
Chapter 2
Positive Charge (+)
Negative Charge (-)
There are several factors which affect the levels of static buildup on a forklift.
For instance, the type of materials used to make the wheels can help to reduce
static, as well the conductive properties of the flooring and the relative humidity in the air. Static buildup will remain on the vehicle until it can be dissipated. Lowering the front forks to make contact to the floor surface can
typically do this. However, eliminating the potential for static buildup is the
best means of protection for both operator and equipment.
Installation Guide 5
Electrical Considerations
Ground Contact Anti-Static Straps
The recommended method of reducing static buildup is to install ground contacting anti-static straps or conductors to the frame of the forklift (refer to Figure 3).
Contact your forklift parts provider for availability.
Figure 3. Installing Ground Contact Anti-Static Straps
Ground Contact
Anti-Static Straps
It is recommended that more than one strap be installed on each vehicle to
help eliminate or reduce the potential for static buildup while the vehicle is in
motion. This will provide an adequate level of redundancy, should one of the
straps become dislodged from the lift.
Ground Contact Anti-Static Straps should be checked at regular intervals to
ensure proper installation or identify need for replacement.

Electrical Accessories
Electrical Accessories
Installation of the PVD may require accessory electronic equipment for proper
and safe operation. Some of this equipment may not be available through
PSC, but could be available through your dealer, forklift parts provider, or
other suppliers. See Appendix A, “Accessories and Peripherals” on page 25.
DC/DC Converter.
Voltage step down device used to power the terminal
from +24, +36 and +48 volt battery systems.
DC Conditioner/UPS.
Used to provide backup DC power during sags or
interruptions in battery voltage due to peak loads or disconnect.
Delay Timer.
Provides automatic shut-off of power to a terminal or other
equipment, to reduce battery drain.
Noise Spike/RF Filter.
Used to suppress high voltage and RF voltage
spikes on the power system.
Electrical Accessory Matrix
Table 1 summarizes the accessory recommendations and options available
depending on the forklift voltage application. This matrix should be used only
as a reference and may not include accessories for all applications.

Electrical Considerations
Electrical System Connections
This section covers electrical connection to +12V, +24V, +36V and +48V systems.
Proper installation requires that source power connections be made directly to
the vehicle's positive and negative battery terminals. It is important to maintain
electrical isolation when installing the powered vehicle dock and any accessory

equipment, to ensure safe and proper operation. Do not make any electrical
connections directly to the chassis of the forklift.
Figure 4 illustrates a typical wiring connection for a +12 volt system. The
input voltage operating range of the dock will allow direct connection to the
battery terminals. However, the use of a 5-Amp fuse is required, and a Noise
Spike/RF filter is highly recommended.
Accessory equipment may also be required depending on your application,
Refer to Table 1 on page 2-7. Read and follow all manufacturer's installation
instructions carefully.

Figure 5 illustrates a wiring diagram for +24, +36 and +48 volt systems. The
use of a DC/DC converter is required to step down the battery voltage for use
by the terminal.
Proper installation requires that source power connections be made directly to
the vehicle's positive and negative battery terminals. It is important to maintain

When using any optional equipment caution must be taken to ensure that
+24, +36 or +48VDC does not exceed any voltage rating for these devices. Follow all manufacturer's installation instructions carefully.
Some DC/DC converters provide internal Noise Spike/RF filtering. The use
of an additional filter is optional.
