Why Install a Desiccant Pack into the Allegro?

The Allegro is waterproof when the battery and PC card doors are

properly closed. However, the unit is built with a micro-pore filter

in the wall of the Allegro, which allows for a balance of atmospheric

pressure between the inside and outside of the case. This can allow

the passage of atmospheric gases, comprised mostly of nitrogen and

oxygen as well as the minor elements such as carbon dioxide and

water vapor.
In higher humidity environments, water vapor may collect inside

the case to a level sufficient to cause condensation inside the case

when the Allegro is subjected to colder conditions. This condition

appears as fog inside of the touchscreen covering the display. Placing

a desiccant pack in the Allegro case can reduce the possibility of

condensation on the inside of the touchscreen.

Included Items

When you order a desiccant pack, you

receive two desiccant packs in a small, air-

tight, resealable plastic bag. Each desiccant

pack is shipped with two small pieces of

Velcro. The first piece is attached to the

desiccant pack, and the other is attached to

the first piece of Velcro.
