INTRODUCTION

The DL Cordless Card™ is a PCMCIA card developed to provide wireless 433 MHz

RF communication between a laptop or a vehicle mounted terminal (Host) and

Datalogic RF devices or base stations, which are STAR-System™ compatible:

Gryphon™ M Readers

Dragon™ M Laser Scanners

STAR Modem™ Radio Modems

Formula Basic Line RF Terminals (F734-E/RF, F725-E/RF, F660-E/RF)

STARGATE™ Base Stations

1.1

DLCC provides a wireless bi-directional communication between the Host and the RF

devices. DLCC installed in a vehicle mounted terminal is a Server (receiver) to the

RF Devices and also a Client (transmitter) to STAR Modem, which receives data for

the printer (Figure 3).

STAR-System™ uses the Narrow Band RF radio and Datalogic CSMA/CA protocol

to automatically link and manage all the RF devices in the system. This protocol

manages the data transmission using a 16-bit CRC checksum. All RF devices in the

system must implement the CSMA/CA protocol and therefore be configured using

the STAR-System™ setup procedure.

To configure the card for operating in this mode refer to paragraph 2.2.
