1 - 6 DS2278 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide
Charging Using the Micro USB Cable
The Micro USB cable is a charge only cable and can also be used for firmware updates.
Figure 1-4 Micro USB Connections
Connect the Micro USB connector to the DS2278. Connect the standard USB connector to a PC or a USB wall
outlet. The digital scanner enumerates as a CDC device when the USB connector is plugged into a PC host. When
charging begins, the digital scanner LED begins flashing green to indicate the start of normal charging.
Converting a CDC Device to HID
The digital scanner enumerates over USB as a CDC device, by default. If your host does not have a CDC driver, a
delay occurs between connecting the digital scanner to the host and the start of charging. To eliminate the delay
scan HID Device Conversion below to enumerate as an HID device. This allows the scanner to begin charging
sooner.
To switch the digital scanner back to a CDC device, scan Scanner as CDC Device below.
For instructions on downloading CDC drivers see page 7-6.
NOTE For best performance, we recommend using Zebra accessories.
