Firmware Update Utility
The Falcon is equipped with a field-upgradeable firmware mechanism. Firm-
ware updates for the Falcon can be found on the Datalogic Mobile website
( www.mobile.datalogic.com ) . After you have downloaded the desired update
to your PC, there are several ways you can update the firmware on the Falcon.
• Use the Falcon Management Utility (FMU) if you have multiple Fal-
cons to update. Refer to the FMU User’s Guide for more information.
• If FMU is not available or you have only a few Falcons to update, use
the Firmware Update Utility (FUU), described below, to install or
update the firmware using an ActiveSync connection. Refer to the
help system on your device for more information.
