Introduction

The cordless scanning system consists of the SCANTEAM 2070 Base unit and
at least one IMAGETEAM 3870 Cordless Linear Imager, IMAGETEAM 3875
Cordless Linear Imager, or SCANTEAM 5770 Cordless Laser Scanner. Up to
nine IT3870/IT3875 or ST5770 scanners may be associated with one base.
Each cordless scanner has a removable, rechargeable charge pack and
provides real time decoding within 100 feet (30 m) radius of the base unit
depending on the environment.
The IT3875 is intended to serve cordless applications that require enhanced
user/host interaction. The addition of the 16-key keypad and 97 x 32 pixel
graphic (16 character by 4 lines of text) LCD backlit display enables the user to
enter data and view confirmation of receipt of data. The IT3875 linear imagers
ship with two installed factory scripts and a product demo. These scripts keep
track of scan history or part number and quantity.
Two PC tools also are available to help generate custom applications: IQ App
Loader™ and IQ App Designer™. IQ App Loader is used to compile and load
custom script applications created with a text editor. IQ App Designer, an
optional PC software tool, automates the creation of scripts and the task of
loading a user script application to the system. Using IQ App Designer you may
build custom script applications with minimal programming experience.
The cordless system is an economical, durable solution for a wide variety of
portable data collection applications. The cordless system features:
• a tough, ergonomic thermoplastic housing for comfort and durability.
• an advanced two-way spread-spectrum radio
• recognition and decoding of the most popular, industry-standard bar code
symbologies, including PDF417.
• coverage of up to 31,416 square feet (2,919 square meters) around the
base.
• a wide range of interfaces that are compatible with many POS, keyboard
wedge, wand and laser emulation, RS-232 terminals, and legacy
decoders.
• visible and audible feedback for confirmation of a successful decode.
• a rechargeable charge pack designed to operate through a whole work
day.
This manual contains information to help you set up, operate, and program the
cordless system. Product specifications, connector pinouts, scan maps, a
