The Vehicle Cradle

7.11 The Vehicle Cradle
The vehicle cradle is a highly ruggedized, single station dock. Although it provides
quick insertion and removal, the cradle holds the WORKABOUT PRO securely
even when operated in high vibration environments.
Note: Shock and vibration specifications for the WORKABOUT PRO are veri-
fied using Psion Teklogix-approved RAM mounts and mounting hardware.
Use of non-certified Psion Teklogix mounting hardware is not recom-
mended, and may void warranty coverage.
The model number for vehicle cradles varies depending on the type of hand-held:
• WORKABOUT PRO C – Model # WA1210-G2
• WORKABOUT PRO S – Model # WA1310-G2
A port replicator option is available for powered vehicle cradles. Refer to “The Port
Replicator” on page 290 for details.
7.11.1 Vehicle Cradle Mounting Recommendations
Warning: Before mounting a vehicle cradle in a vehicle, there are a number
of operator safety issues that require careful attention. An improp-
erly mounted cradle may result in one or more of the following:
operator injury, operator visibility obstruction, operator distraction
and/or poor ease of egress for the operator. Psion Teklogix strongly
recommends that you seek professional mounting advice from the
vehicle manufacturer.
Cable routing within a vehicle cab also requires careful consider-
ation, especially for separately tethered scanners and other devices
with loose cables. If you are unable to obtain suitable advice,
contact Psion Teklogix for assistance (see Appendix A: Summit
Client Utility (SCU)). Note also that for better protection, the equip-
ment should be mounted inside the vehicle roll cage.
Pedestal mounts are recommended for all fixed mount locations because they offer
optimal operator access. In addition, for safety reasons, only pedestal mounts with
fully locking joints should be used in vehicles. Always adjust the pedestal for the
optimum viewing angle, and securely tighten the hex and wing screws.
The most effective way to mount the vehicle cradle is to use the four #8-32 threaded inserts
on the rear of the unit. Bolts must not extend more than 10mm (3/8") into the cradle.
