Connecting the Base when Security Pin is Enabled
When connecting the Base to a system that has a custom Security Pin
enabled, follow the steps below in the order shown:
1. Power down the host system.
2. Connect the appropriate interfac
e cable into the Base as shown in Fig-
ure 10.
3. Place the reader in the Base.
4. Power up the host. The reader will link to the Base

Linking the Reader to a Base Station
RF Devices
For RF devices, before configuring the interface it is necessary to link the
handheld with the base. To link the handheld and the base, press the trigger
to wake it and place it on the base. If the reader was previously linked to
another base, you must first scan the Unlink action command before re-
linking to the new base.
BT Models only
Remember: The mandatory condition for establishing a new linking between
a BT handheld and a BT base is that the handheld is unlinked and they share
the same security configuration. A successful link is indicated by three
ascending tones from the reader. A high-low-high-low tone indicates the
link attempt was unsuccessful. A single green LED flash after this tone indi-
cates no Base Station was discovered. Two green LED flashes after this tone
indicate
s that more than one Base Station was discovered and the reader did
not link. Three LED flashes after this tone indicate a security error.
