Linking the
Scanner to a
Base Station
User's Guide
The Base Station's POWER LED should be illuminated when
the unit is properly connected to power.
Figure 3. Connecting Power to the Base Station
5. Apply power to the Host Terminal.
6. Verify communication with the Host Terminal by aiming the
linked scanner at a sample bar code from the back pages of this
manual, and pulling the trigger (see How to Scan for tips about
scanning bar codes). Confirm that the scanner/Base Station
sent the data to the host terminal. If not, see the section, Trou-
bleshooting. Once all communications are verified, the system is
ready for use.
To link a scanner to a Base Station, simply scan the Base Station ID bar
code located on the top of the desired Base Station. As the scanner
searches for the Base Station, a short beep is heard as it seeks for the
correct channel. When the Base Station responds to the request, the
scanner's beeper will either sound a "Link Granted," or "Link Denied"
signal (see the section, LED and Beeper Indications for more informa-
tion).
