Battery Pack

The battery pack in the Falcon is a 3.7 V, 2000

mAh Lithium Ion battery pack. You will be

alerted with a message dialog box when the bat-

tery 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, the soft input panel (SIP), and to select items

on the touch screen. Place the stylus in the holder after use so you don’t lose

or misplace it. An optional Stylus Tether is available for all models.

battery fails, the contents of the RAM memory will be lost. If your back-up bat-

tery is less than fully charged, there is proportionally smaller window of time

available. Usage time will be reduced, also.
