NOTE 
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.  
 
The Single Slot Dock paired with a Skorpio 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 cradle. 
 
Power supply is required for the Skorpio X3 to be connected to the cradle 
and for battery recharging operations.
