Sending Data to the Host Computer
The cradle receives data from the digital scanner via a wireless radio connection and transmits it to the host
computer via the host cable. The digital scanner and cradle must be paired for successful wireless communication.
Pairing
Pairing registers a digital scanner to the cradle such that the digital scanner and cradle can exchange information.
Pair the digital scanner to the cradle either by inserting it in the cradle (if pair on contacts is enabled), or by
scanning the pairing bar code.
To pair the digital scanner with the cradle, insert the digital scanner in the cradle or scan the pairing bar code.
(Pairing on insertion into the cradle is enabled by default. See Pairing Methods on page 5-27.)
NOTE The pairing bar code that connects the digital scanner to a cradle is unique to each cradle.
Do not scan data or parameters until pairing completes.
