All rights reserved.72-150220-05 - February 2016 - Revision AIntroductionThis guide applies to the STB3578 with FIPS, and STB3574 Industrial Ethernet cradles.• The STB3578 with FIPS cradle receives data from the scanner via a Bluetooth radio, and sends that data to the host through an attached cable. The STB3578 cradle can also be used with LS3578 scanners for charging and radio communication.• The STB3574 Industrial Ethernet cradle receives and transfers data via a configurable Ethernet IP address. The cradle can be configured to use one of three Industrial Ethernet Protocols: PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and Modbus TCP. Go to: https://www.zebra.com/us/en/support-downloads.html to download the configuration software for this cradle.Both cradles charge the scanner’s internal battery pack when the scanner is inserted. The scanner can be charged from an external power supply, or a powered host cable.This document provides basic instructions on setting up and using the cradle. Any discussion about transmission of data refers specifically to the STB3578 cradle. Refer to the STB3574 Industrial Ethernet Developer Cradle Developer Guide, p/n MN-002694-01, for detailed information about receiving and transferring data with the STB3574 cradle.CAUTION LS3478 and DS3478 cordless scanners are incompatible with STB3508/3578 cradles. LS3578 and DS3578 cordless scanners are incompatible with STB3408/3478 cradles.Equipment SuppliedThe STB3578 and STB3574 cradle packages include:•Cradle• Four rubber feet (for desk mounting).AccessoriesThe following equipment may be needed:• Three 1.5" #8 Phillips head screws (for wall mounting, if applicable, not available from Zebra).• Power supply for desk/wall mounting configuration.Save the shipping container for storing or shipping. Inspect all equipment for damage. If anything is damaged or missing, call an authorized Zebra Support Center immediately.Related Documentation•LS3578 Product Reference Guide, p/n 72E-93911-xx.•LS3578 Quick Start Guide, p/n 72-93587-xx.•DS3578 with FIPS Product Reference Guide, p/n 72E-153466-xx.•DS3578 Quick Start Guide, p/n 72-151247-xx.•FLB3508/3578 Quick Reference Guide, p/n 72-150221-xx.• STB3574 Industrial Ethernet Cradle Product Reference Guide.All documentation is available at: www.zebra.com/support.Cradle PartsCradle ConnectionsChanging the Host Interface (STB3578 only)To connect the STB3578 cradle to a different host, or to the same host through a different cable:1. Unplug the power supply from the cradle.2. Unplug the interface cable from the host.3. Connect the interface cable to the new host, or the new interface cable to the existing host.4. Reconnect the power supply, if required.5. If necessary, scan the appropriate host bar code (for non-autodetected interfaces). Refer to the Product Reference Guide. Using a Host Interface to Supply PowerSome hosts can provide power to the cradle via the host interface, instead of an external power supply.Mounting the CradleHorizontal Mount1. Ensure the desk/wall mount converter knob is in the correct position, shown at right.2. If mounting the cradle horizontally where no fastening is necessary, peel the protective paper from the back of the rubber feet included with the cradle packaging, and attach the feet to the cradle at the indentations in the plastic. These feet provide traction and prevent surface damage. Vertical MountTo mount the cradle on a vertical surface:1. Use a Phillips screwdriver to turn the desk/wall mount converter knob to the position shown below. The front latches protract to engage the depressions at the base of the scanner’s handle.2. Attach the interface and power cables to the appropriate ports (see <bl_blue><em_Emphasis>Cradle Connections).3. Press the cables into the cable grooves.4. Position the cradle on the mounting surface, or use the template included in this guide.5. Mark the surface through the three holes on the bottom of the cradle, or use the mounting template to determine the location of the screw holes.6. Pre-drill holes to accommodate three 1.5" #8 Phillips head screws.7. Attach the cradle securely to the surface.8. Place the scanner in the cradle.Inserting the Scanner in the CradleTo insert the scanner in the cradle:• Insert the scanner top first. Push the handle until it clicks into place, engaging the contacts in the cradle and scanner.Sending Data to the Host ComputerThe cradle receives data from the scanner via a wireless radio connection and transmits it to the host computer via the host cable. The scanner and cradle must be paired for successful wireless communication.PairingPairing registers a scanner to the cradle such that the scanner and cradle can exchange information. The STB357X operates in two modes: Point-to-Point (scanner-to-cradle) and Multipoint-to-Point (multi scanner-to-cradle). In Point-to-Point mode, the scanner is paired to the cradle either by insertion into the cradle (if pairing on insertion is enabled), or by scanning the pairing bar code. In Multipoint-to-Point mode, up to three scanners can be paired to one cradle when using a Non-FIPS digital scanner and cradle. When using a FIPS enabled digital scanner and a FIPS enabled cradle, up to seven digital scanners can be paired to one cradle. The multipoint bar code must be scanned to activate this feature. Refer to the Product Reference Guide for more information.The cradle includes pairing bar codes on both its front and back. To pair the scanner with the cradle, scan a pairing bar code. A high-low-high-low beep sequence followed by a low-high beep sequence indicates successful pairing and connection to the remote device. A long low, long high beep sequence indicates unsuccessful pairing. Refer to the Product Reference Guide for more information.Lost Connection to HostIf scanned data does not transmit to the cradle’s host, ensure that all cables are firmly inserted and the power supply is connected to an appropriate AC outlet, if applicable. If scanned data still does not transmit to the host, reestablish a connection with the host:1. Disconnect the power supply from the cradle.2. Disconnect the host interface cable from the cradle.3. Wait three seconds.4. Reconnect the host interface cable to the cradle.5. Reconnect the power supply to the cradle, if required.6. Reestablish pairing with the cradle by scanning the pairing bar code.Charging the Scanner Battery in the CradleTo charge the scanner battery, place the scanner in the cradle (see <bl_blue><em_Emphasis>Inserting the Scanner in the Cradle). The battery begins charging when the scanner LED indicator starts flashing green. A complete charge of a fully discharged battery can take up to 4.5 hours using external power and up to 10 hours using the interface cable.Scanner LED IndicatorsThe green LED on the scanner indicates charging activity (see the table below). If the scanner is charging in fast mode (non-bus powered mode), the green LED blinks at a fast rate. If the scanner is charging in slow mode (bus-powered mode), the LED blinks at a slow rate.If the red LED on the scanner begins flashing, indicating a charging problem, remove the scanner from the cradle and replace the battery. If the red LED on the scanner continues flashing, contact the Zebra Support Center.TroubleshootingIf the cradle does not work after following the previous procedures:• Check the system power.• Check for loose cable connections.• Check that the scanner is inserted properly in the cradle.• Check that the host settings are correct and the cradle is connected to the appropriate port on the host.Regulatory InformationFor devices with Symbol, or Symbol Technologies Inc., etc. on the Manufacturing Label and for devices manufactured at Reynosa, or any other Zebra factory facilities:This device is approved under Zebra Technologies Corporation.This guide applies to Model Numbers STB3574 and STB3578.All Zebra devices are designed to be compliant with the rules and regulations in the locations they are sold and will be labeled as required.
