• Successful Decoding Indicator (Green LED): Illuminates upon successful barcode decoding.
• Communication Fail Indicator (Red LED): Indicates a failure in wireless communication.
• Charging Indicator (Red/Green LED): Red indicates charging in progress, Green indicates charging complete.

Cradle Features:

• Power Indicator (Blue LED): Indicates the cradle is powered on and in normal working mode.
• Communication Indicator (Green LED): Indicates successful communication with the handheld unit.
• Key: A button for long press (10 seconds) to restore the cradle to its factory default settings.

Wireless Data Transmission Indication:

• Successful Transmission: No beeps, Red LED off, Vibration off.
• Unsuccessful Transmission: Two long beeps, Red LED blinks 2 times then turns off, Short vibrates 2 times then turns off.

Important Technical Specifications

• Charging Time: Approximately 6 hours for a fully charged battery.
• Charging Method: The battery can be charged via a USB port on the device or an optional 5 VDC adapter.
• Wireless Connection: The handheld unit connects to the cradle wirelessly. The cradle's BT Address is provided (e.g., @DC0D3000091C@).
• Power Input (Cradle): DC: 5V/0.5A.

Usage Features

Installation of Cradle:

1. Connect the cradle to the host device using the appropriate cable (USB, RS232, or PS/2 keyboard cable).
2. Connect the power adapter to the power socket.
3. Ensure all connections are secure. The blue LED on the cradle will turn on after a few seconds, indicating normal working mode.
   • Note: If using the PS/2 keyboard cable, the host device must be restarted after successful connection.

Battery Charging:

• It is recommended to charge the battery before first use.
• During charging, the Red LED on the handheld unit is on.
• When charging is complete, the Red LED turns off, and the Green LED turns on.

Programming Instruction and Example:

The scanner supports two programming modes:

1. Single-scan setting: Scan a single barcode to apply a setting.
2. Multiple-scan setting: Involves scanning an "Option bar code," then the 1st and 2nd characters of the option, and finally "END."
   • Example: To set Flow control to XON/XOFF, specific barcodes like %0301D03%, %0301M%, 0, 3, and %END% are scanned in sequence.
