LINKING THE READER

Link Datalogic RF Devices to Base

For RF devices, before configuring the interface it is neces-
sary to link the handheld with the base.
To link the handheld and the base, press the trigger to
wake up the handheld and mount it into the base.
See the Radio Characteristics table on page 20 for the
maximum number of handhelds that can be simultane-
ously linked to a single base station.
If the reader was previously linked to another base, you
must first press and hold the button on the base ( >5 sec-
onds), then scan the Unlink bar code before re-linking to
the new base.

SELECTING THE INTERFACE TYPE

Upon completing the physical connection between the
reader base station and its host, proceed directly to the
Interface Selection paragraph below, to program the
reader for the interface type it is connected to (for exam-
ple: RS-232, Keyboard Wedge, USB, etc.). Scan the appro-
priate bar code to select your system's correct interface
type.
