Connecting Using Scanner Emulation
See Chapter 4, Radio Communications for information about scanner/cradle pairing and wireless
communication
The scanner must be connected to the cradle for the host parameter setting to take effect. When the scanner
is not connected to a cradle, and a host parameter bar code is scanned, a long low/long high beep sequence
sounds.
To perform Scanner Emulation, connect the cradle to a mobile computer, or a controller which collects the data and interprets it for
the host.
Figure 11-1. Scanner Emulation Connection
To connect the Scanner Emulation interface:
1. Attach the modular connector of the Scanner Emulation interface cable to the host port on the bottom of the scanner cradle
(see Connecting the Cradle on page 1-8).
2. Connect the other end of the Scanner Emulation interface cable to the scanner port on the mobile computer or controller.
3. Scan the Scanner Emulation host bar code from Scanner Emulation Host on page 11-6 to enable the Scanner Emulation host
interface.
4. To modify any other parameter options, scan the appropriate bar codes in this chapter.
Interface cables vary depending on configuration. he connectors illustrated in Figure 11-1 are examples only.
The connectors may be different than those illustrated, but the steps to connect the cradle remain the same.
If a power supply is used, disconnect the power supply before changing host cables or the cradle may not
recognize the new host.
Connect the cradle to a 5 volt decoder only. Connecting the cradle to a 12 volt decoder can damage
the scanner and invalidate the warranty.
