Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Adaptor/Cable Options 7.3 Adaptor/Cable Options The following are adaptors that can be ordered for NEO: Table 7.2 Adaptor/Cable Model Numbers And Descriptions Model Number 7.3.
Figure 7.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Micro-USB Adaptor – Model No. PX3054 • 7.3.2 Align the docking port on the base of NEO with the adaptor, and gently snap the adaptor into place. Micro-USB Adaptor – Model No. PX3054 This adaptor is equipped with a micro-USB port along with a DC IN socket. When attached to NEO, the adaptor allows you to connect an AC wall adaptor (Model No. PX3012) or an automotive power adaptor (Model No. PX3056) to the hand-held.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Charging Options USB to USB ‘A’ (Model No. PX3058 & PX3053). Carrying devices such as the wrist strap can still be used when the adaptor is attached to the hand-held. Slot to Accommodate Wrist Strap Micro-USB Port DC IN Socket To attach this adaptor: • • • 7.4 Make certain that the adaptor connector and NEO docking port are free of dust or any other debris before connecting them. A slot on the side of the adaptor is provided to accommodate the wrist strap.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Installation – Docking Stations 7.4.1 Installation – Docking Stations When installing a docking station, consider the following guidelines. • • Keep docking stations away from excessive dirt, dust and contaminants. Docking stations will not charge batteries outside an ambient temperature range of 0 °C to 45 °C (32 °F to 113 °F).
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Desktop Docking Station Setup Note: The desktop docking station is shipped with its own user manual. It is critical that it be reviewed for additional information and updates. The desktop docking station is designed to charge the battery installed in NEO along with a spare battery pack. It is equipped with a micro-USB port. Figure 7.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Charging a Spare Battery • Insert the DC power cable to the DC IN port on the desktop docking station. Plug the pronged end of the cable into an AC outlet. • Slide NEO into the docking station, making certain that the connector on the base of the hand-held is securely seated on the docking station connector pins.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Docking Station Charger LED Indicators 7.5.5 Docking Station Charger LED Indicators The desktop docking station is equipped with a single tri-coloured LED indicator in the lower-right corner of the front panel that indicates various charge states of the spare battery installed in the docking station.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Linking a NEO to a PC • Reconnect the power cable to the outlet. 7.5.6.3 Indicator Does Not Light When Battery Installed • • • • • 7.5.7 Reinstall the battery, and check that it is fully seated in the charge well. Remove the battery, and clean the contacts on the battery and the charge well. Inspect the charge well contacts for damage (are they bent, flattened, twisted or broken). Try inserting a battery that you know to be working in the charge well.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Troubleshooting USB Operations If a link is established between NEO and a host, the application on the host and on the handheld must have a recovery mechanism in the event that NEO is removed from the dock, interrupting the link. 7.5.9 Troubleshooting USB Operations • • • 7.6 Ensure that the unit is fully seated in the dock. A dock icon should be visible in the task bar. Ensure the USB cabling is connected properly.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Cigarette Lighter Adaptor — Model PX3056 7.7 Cigarette Lighter Adaptor — Model PX3056 The cigarette lighter adaptor allows you to power your hand-held and recharge your battery using power drawn from your vehicle’s automotive power outlet when used in conjunction with the DC/USB Adaptor, Model No. PX3054. Figure 7.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Quad Docking Station Setup Note: The quad docking station is shipped with a user manual. It is critical that this manual be reviewed for additional information and updates. The quad docking station permits each of the four docked NEOs to communicate with a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet network. It also provides sufficient power to operate the hand-helds and charge their batteries.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Battery Charging – LED Behaviour 7.8.4.1 Network Addressing Although the USB converters have fixed Ethernet MAC addresses, there is generally no correlation between these addresses and a specific hand-held. The host application uses standard TCP/IP protocol to name, locate and communicate with a specific NEO on the network.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Scanners and Imagers • 7.9 Make certain that the battery installed in NEO is not defective. Scanners and Imagers NEO supports the following scanner and imagers: 1D laser scanner (SE955), 1D imager (EV15) and 2D imager (HHP 5000). The scanner installed in your unit can be configured using the Scanner Settings dialog box (see “Teklogix Scanners Settings” on page 156 and Appendix C: “Bar Code Settings”) and the Manage Triggers application (see page 141).
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Troubleshooting When the scan is successful, the bar code data is displayed on the screen until the scan button (or pistol trigger) is released, but only if Scan Result is turned on in the Options tab discussed in the previous paragraph. 7.9.3 Troubleshooting If the scanner is not working, investigate the following: • • • • • • 7.10 Check that the bar code symbology being scanned is enabled for the hand-held you are using.

Important: To improve the decode speed and performance, enable only those codes that are required by the application.
Appendix C: Bar Code Settings Decoded (Internal) Scanner C.2 Decoded (Internal) Scanner C.2.1 Options – Decoded (Internal) Scanner Dot Time (msec) The value selected for “Dot Time (msec)” determines (in milliseconds) how long the targeting dot remains on before the scanner switches to a normal scan sweep. When you doubletap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can enter a value of 0 msec, 200 msec or 400 msec. A value of 0 (zero) disables the target dot.
Appendix C: Bar Code Settings Advanced Options – Decoded (Internal) Aim Duration This parameter determines the total time the aiming pattern appears before the scanner laser begins sweeping. When you double-tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can enter a value from 0 to 30 (0 to 3 sec.). A value of 0 (zero) disables the aiming dot.
Appendix C: Bar Code Settings Advanced Options – Decoded (Internal) 5). Higher security levels should be selected for decreasing levels of bar code quality.
