Changing the Host Interface
To connect to a different host, or to the same host through a different
cable:
1. Unplug the interface cable from the host.
2. Unplug the power supply from the cradle.
3. Connect the interface cable to the new host, or the new interface cable
to the existing host.
4. Reconnect the power supply, if required.
5. If necessary, scan the appropriate host bar code (for non-autodetected
interfaces). Refer to the Product Reference Guide.
Using a DC Power Supply
The cradle can operate from host supplied power, if available. If host
power is limited or not available, an external DC power supply can be
used with certain host interface cables that support a power jack. An
external power supply is recommended if fastest charging is required.
Mounting the Cradle
When placing the cradle on a tabletop, the rubber feet on the bottom of the
cradle provide traction and prevent surface damage.
To mount the cradle on a mounting bracket:
1. Install the mounting bracket in the appropriate location and secure in
place.
2. Attach the interface and power cables to the cradle (see
Cradle
Connections on page 3).
3. Position the cradle on the mounting surface lining up the station mount
threaded brass screw holes on the bottom of the cradle with the holes
on the mounting bracket.
4. Attach the cradle securely to the surface using the two M4 screws.
5. Insert the digital scanner in the cradle.
CAUTION Always disconnect the DC power supply BEFORE
disconnecting the cable to the host end or the cradle
may not recognize the new host.
