Note: This chapter applies only to cordless scanning systems.  It does not apply 

to corded scanners. 

The cordless base provides the link between the cordless scanner and the host 

system.  The base contains an interface assembly and an RF communication 
module.  The RF communication module performs the data exchange between 
the cordless scanner and the interface assembly.  The control assembly coordi-

nates the central interface activities including: transmitting/receiving commands 
and data to/from the host system, performing software activities (parameter 
menuing, visual indicator support, power-on diagnostics), and data translation 
required for the host system.

The base also is the scanner’s battery charger.  Refer to 

, page 3-5, for additional information.

Turn off power before connecting the base, then power up the computer once 
the base is fully connected.  When the base is connected and powered up, put 
the scanner in the base to establish a link.  The green LED on the base flashes 
to indicate the scanner’s battery is charging.

If the scanner and base have previously been linked, you do not receive any 
feedback.  If this is the first time that the scanner and base are linked, both 
devices emit a short chirp when their radios link.  At this point, that one scanner 
is linked to one base.

To determine if your cordless system is set up correctly, scan one of the sample 

bar codes in the back of this manual.  If the scanner provides a single good read 
beep and the green LED lights, the scanner has successfully linked to the base.  
If you receive an error tone and the red LED lights, the scanner has not linked to 

the base.  Refer to 

 for troubleshooting information.
