We have an issue where multiple of our X5 Scanners are black screening, the lights are still coming on when buttons are pressed but the screen is completely black. Our Current fix is by taking the battery out and waiting for the device to shutoff. Then we boot it back up as usual. Any idea on what is causing this issue? Not sure if its a user error, only one person has been reporting the issue.

The black screen issue on multiple Datalogic Skorpio X5 scanners, despite the lights turning on when buttons are pressed, could be caused by a disconnected or drained main battery pack. The manual states that the main battery pack is disconnected at the factory to prevent excessive draining. If the battery is not properly connected or fully charged, the device may power on partially but fail to display anything on the screen. Charging the battery as indicated in the Quick Start Guide or ensuring proper battery connection may resolve the issue.

Page 19: Battery Information
Never charge the device battery in a closed space where excessive heat can build up. As a safety precaution, the battery may stop charging to avoid overheating. The Skorpio X5 may get warm during charging; this is normal and does not mean a mal- function.
Page 20: Battery Safety Guidelines
Using the battery pack in this manner may also result in a loss of perfor- mance and a shortened life expectancy. To power the cradle, use only a Datalogic approved power supply. The use of an alternative power supply will void the product warranty, may cause product damage and may cause heat, an explosion, or fire.
Page 21 BATTERY WARNING: If your device stops working for any reason, do not use its bat- tery on other electronic devices without a prior check and approval by an Authorized Repair Center. Do not replace the battery pack when the device is turned on. Do not remove or damage the battery pack’s label.
