Programming the Scanner and Base or Access Point
When using the scanner and charge base or Access Point together as a system, menu parameters and configuration settings
are stored in the charge base or Access Point. Therefore, when programming any menu configuration settings, the scanner
must be linked to the intended charge base or Access Point.
are stored in the charge base or Access Point. Therefore, when programming any menu configuration settings, the scanner
must be linked to the intended charge base or Access Point.
Note: This only applies when the scanner is linked to a charge base or Access Point. If the scanner is in a non-base mode,
configuration settings are stored in the scanner.
RF (Radio Frequency) Module Operation
The cordless system uses a two-way Bluetooth® radio to transmit and receive data between the scanner and the base or
Access Point. Designed for point-to-point and multipoint-to-single point applications, the radio operates using a license free ISM
band, which sends relatively small data packets at a fast data rate over a radio signal with randomly changing frequencies,
makes the cordless system highly responsive to a wide variety of data collection applications and resistant to noisy RF environ-
ments. The CCB01-010BT (Bluetooth Class 2) provides a communication range of 33 feet (10m) between the scanner and
base or Access Point, depending on the environment. See

System Conditions
The components of the cordless system interact in specific ways as you associate a scanner to a base or Access Point, as you
move a scanner out of range, bring a scanner back in range, or swap scanners between two cordless systems. The following
information explains the cordless system operating conditions.

Linking Process
Once a scanner is placed into a cordless charge base, the scanner’s battery charge status is checked, and software auto-
matically detects the scanner and links it to the base depending on the selected link mode.

Refer to
, page 3-1, for information about linking to an Access Point.
Scanner Is Out of Range
The cordless scanner is in communication with its base or Access Point, even when it is not transmitting bar code data.
Whenever the scanner can’t communicate with the base or Access Point for a few seconds, it is out of range. If the scanner
is out of range and you scan a bar code, the scanner issues an error tone indicating no communication with the base or
Access Point. A cordless charge base can also sound an alarm. Refer to

Scanner Is Moved Back Into Range
The scanner relinks if the scanner or the base or Access Point have been reset, or the scanner comes back into range. If
the scanner relinks, you will hear a single chirp when the relinking process (uploading of the parameter table) is complete.

Out of Range and Back into Range with Batch Mode On
The scanner may store a number of symbols (approximately 500 U.P.C. symbols; others may vary) when it is out of range
and then send them to the base or Access Point when back in range (see

You will not hear a communication error tone in this mode, but you will hear a short buzz when you pull the trigger if the
radio communication is not working. Once the radio connection is made, the scanner produces a series of beeps while the
data is being transferred to the base or Access Point.

Page Button
When you press the Page button on the base or Access Point, the scanners associated with that base or Access Point will
begin beeping (3 short and 1 long beep). If you pull the trigger on a scanner that is beeping in response, or press the Page
button on the base or Access Point a second time, all associated scanners will stop beeping. See
