Linking the

Scanner to a

Base Station

To link a scanner to a Base Station, simply scan the Base Station ID bar

code located on the top of the desired Base Station (see Figure 2). As the

scanner searches for the Base Station, a short beep is heard as it seeks

for the correct channel. When the Base Station responds to the request,

the scanner’s beeper will either sound a "Link Granted," or "Link

Denied" signal (see Appendix E: LED and Beeper Indications on page 203

for more information).

The existing Base Station system configuration can be automatically

downloaded to the scanner. This automatic download feature is config-

urable and can be disabled. See the section, Common Configuration for

more information about this feature. If downloading occurs, a slight

delay with link verification announcement will occur.

CAUTION

Since a new/replacement scanner may have been

shipped with a custom configuration or may have

been modified with other special programming, it

may not be desirable to download a potentially

older configuration from an existing Base Station.

In this case, reference Transmit Scanner Configura-

tion to Base Station on page 11 and consider

uploading the scanner’s newer configuration to the

Base Station.
