European Patent 367,299; 414,281; 367,300; 367,298; UK 2,072,832; France 81/ 03938; Italy 1,138,713. rev. 4/99 Preliminary Q u i c k R e f e r e n c e Introduction The PhaserLink PL 470 Base Cradle acts as a stand, host communication interface, and a charger for the Phaser Radio Scanner. It can sit on a desktop or be wall-mounted - whichever is more convenient. The cradle receives data from the scanner via connectors in the bottom of the scanner and the top of the cradle. It then transmits that data to the host device through an attached cable. The cradle also provides power for charging the scanner’s battery pack (in the scanner). The cradle has a charge status indicator light. There are two versions of the cradle available: • PL 470 Base Cradle: the radio retail version • PL 370 Base Cradle: the radio industrial version This Quick Reference Guide provides basic instruction on the set up and use of the cradle. Unless otherwise noted, the term PhaserLink refers to all versions of the cradle. Equipment Supplied The equipment supplied is: • • • • • Two Screws (for wall mounting) One Velcro Strip (for desk mounting) Four Rubber Feet (for desk mounting) This Guide Cradle Save the shipping container for storing or shipping. Inspect all your equipment for damage. If anything is damaged or missing, call your authorized Customer Support Representative immediately.

Insert the independent power plug into the Power Port (the cradle cannot be powered by the host computer). Preliminary Q u i c k R e f e r e n c e 2. Insert the cable from the host computer into COM 1 and the cable to the other cradles, if any, into COM 2. Daisy-Chaining Note: The cradle supports daisy-chaining when connected to a serial host and not when using Synapse interfaces. To daisy-chain two or more cradles together, connect COM 1 of the first cradle to the host and COM 2 to COM 1 of the second cradle. Then connect COM 2 of the second cradle to COM 1 of the third cradle. You can daisy-chain up to 12 cradles to one host in this manner. Wall Mounting Before wall-mounting the cradle, the scanner support tab must be changed from the desk-mount position to the wall-mount position. 1. Lift the scanner support tab out of the top part of the cradle and replace it in the wall-mount position, as shown: Desk Mount Wall Mount Preliminary P L 4 7 0 B a s e C r a d l e 2. Seat the cables from the bottom of the cradle in the grooves along the length of it so that the bottom of the cradle is smooth and flat, as shown: 3. Secure two screws (included) to the wall. A template is provided for you on page 12. 4. Fasten the screws into the wall where the cradle will hang, leaving about 1/8” (.3 cm) of the screw outside the wall so that the cradle will have something to hang on. 5. Place the cradle over the screw heads and slide down until it fits into place. Slight pressure upwards should not move the cradle. Preliminary 6. Place the Phaser in the cradle. Q u i c k R e f e r e n c e Inserting Phaser in the Cradle Place the Phaser scanner in the cradle so that the top of the scanner sits in the larger part of the cradle and the metal contacts on the bottom of the scanner touch the contacts on the cradle, like so: Sending Data to Host Computer To set up the PhaserLink Cradle for communications between a Phaser and a host computer: 1. Connect the cradle to the host computer as described in Connecting To The Host on page 4. 2. Insert the Phaser in the cradle. 3. Start the communications program on the host computer and the Phaser. Recharging the Battery in the Phaser 1. Connect the cradle to a receptacle supplying AC power of the proper voltage level. 2. Place the scanner in the cradle, ensuring the metal contacts on the bottom of the scanner touch the contacts on the cradle. 3. A complete charge takes up to 4 hours, depending upon the remaining charge in the battery of the scanner. Preliminary P L 4 7 0 B a s e C r a d l e Indicator LED Once the scanner is placed in the cradle, it will wait 15 minutes to start charging the battery in the scanner. The LED blinks in a specific pattern to show what the cradle is doing: Off The scanner is not in the cradle Slow Blink Scanner is in cradle, not charging Fast Blink Scanner is in cradle, charging On Scanner is in cradle, charge cycle is complete Troubleshooting If the cradle does not work after you’ve followed these operating instructions: • • • Check the system power. Check for loose cable connections. Check the scanner is sitting properly in the cradle. Cleaning Wipe the cradle periodically with a lens tissue or other material suitable for cleaning optical material, such as eyeglasses. Caution: Do not pour, spray or spill any liquid on the cradle. Preliminary Q u i c k R e f e r e n c e Regulatory Information Cradle Labeling Radio Frequency Interference Requirements This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device pursuant to Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commissions Rules and Regulation. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
