Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7530
Connecting & Disconnecting Tethered Peripherals
•
When the scan button or trigger is pressed, a red, oval shaped light (the
framing marker) is displayed. Centre the framing marker in the field – either
in the centre of the bar code you want to scan or in the centre of the area in
which multiple bar codes are to be scanned.
Illumination LEDs will flash and a picture of the bar code(s) is taken.
3.8 Connecting & Disconnecting Tethered Peripherals
Tethered peripherals such as scanners and printers connect to the hand-held
computer with a quick release, circular connector. When a peripheral is connected to
the hand-held, the 7535 detects the peripheral and loads the necessary drivers for it.
An icon in the taskbar at the bottom of the screen provides a visual representation of
the peripheral and indicates that it is ready for operation.
To attach the peripheral to the round, tether port on the side of the 7530:
•
Insert the barrel of the plug into the tether port and rotate slowly until
it clicks into place. The red dot on the port and on the connector should
be aligned.
