BC9180™ Startup and Connection to Ethernet Network
Ensure the BC9180 is correctly plugged into your system (see the
BC91XX Quick Reference Guide or Product Reference Guide for informa-
tion. Power on the BC9180™ cradle.
When the cradle powers up, the Ethernet Green LED will be OFF. When the
Ethernet cable is plugged in, the cradle will attempt to connect to the
network. Upon a successful connection, the Ethernet Green LED will be
ON and the cradle will be ready to work as a receiver for the wireless
HandHeld scanner linked to it.
When the DHCP Client configuration is enabled (default), the BC9180™
cradle will use the dynamic IP Address supplied by the DHCP server in the
network. If the DHCP Client configuration is disabled, you can use a fixed
static IP address (the default value is 192.168.187.31). To disable the
DHCP client, go to page 17. To change the default fixed IP address, see
page 18.
After connecting the BC9180™ to the network, Datalogic Aladdin™ soft-
ware (version 1.6.3 or newer) can be used to discover the IP address of
the Base using the Discovery feature.
