The CR2278-PC can sit on a tabletop or be mounted with an L-bracket (supplied by a third party vendor). The cradle receives data from the digital scanner via a Bluetooth radio, and sends that data to the host through an attached cable. The cradle also charges the digital scanners internal battery when the digital scanner is inserted. When inserted into the cradle, the digital scanner can be charged from an external power supply or a USB cable powered by the host. This document provides basic instructions on setting up and using the cradle. Equipment Supplied The cradle package includes one CR2278-PC cradle. Accessories Power supply, if necessary. Host cable, for connecting to a host interface. 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 DS2278 Digital Scanner Quick Start Guide, p/n MN-002916-xx.

(2 - M4 x 5 mm) Rubber Feet Cradle Connections 1. Connect the appropriate cable to the power supply and an AC power source, if necessary. This ensures detection of the host and prevents inadvertently back powering the cradle from improper detection of the host. MN-002917-02ENa_cr2278pc-qrg-en.fm Page 4 4 2. CR2278-PC Presentation Cradle Insert the interface cable into the appropriate port on the host side. Insert the interface cable into the host port in the cradle. 3. 4. Pair the digital scanner to the cradle either by inserting it in the cradle 5. or by scanning the pairing bar code. If necessary, scan the appropriate host bar code (for non-autodetected interfaces). Refer to the Product Reference Guide. Changing the Host Interface To connect to a different host, or to the same host through a different cable:
1. Unplug the interface cable from the host. 2. Unplug the power supply from the host cable, if required. 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 DC Power Supply The cradle can operate from host supplied power, if available. If host power is limited or not available, an external DC power supply can be used with certain host interface cables that support a power jack. CAUTION Always disconnect the DC power supply BEFORE disconnecting the cable to the host end or the cradle may not recognize the new host. Mounting the Cradle When placing the cradle on a tabletop, the rubber feet on the bottom of the cradle provide traction and prevent surface damage. To mount the cradle to a tabletop or on an L-bracket (using a third party bracket):
1. Attach the interface and power cables to the cradle (see Cradle Connections on page 3). 2. Attach the cradle securely to the surface using two M4 screws. 3. Insert the digital scanner in the cradle. MN-002917-02ENa_cr2278pc-qrg-en.fm Page 5 Quick Reference Guide 5 Inserting the Digital Scanner in the Cradle. CAUTION Do not pour, spray, or spill any liquid on the cradle. Sending Data to the Host Computer The cradle receives data from the digital scanner via a wireless radio connection and transmits it to the host computer via the host cable. The digital scanner and cradle must be paired for successful wireless communication. Pairing NOTE The pairing bar code that connects the digital scanner to a cradle is unique to each cradle. Do not scan data or parameters until pairing completes. Only when the digital scanner is paired to the cradle, it automatically tries to reconnect to a remote device when a disconnection occurs that is due to the radio losing communication. Refer to the Product Reference Guide for more information. Pairing is the process by which a digital scanner initiates communication with a cradle. To pair the digital scanner with the cradle, scan the pairing bar code. A high/low/high/low beep sequence indicates that the pairing bar code was decoded. When a connection between the cradle and digital scanner is established, a low/high beep sounds. MN-002917-02ENa_cr2278pc-qrg-en.fm Page 6 6 CR2278-PC Presentation Cradle Lost Connection to Host If scanned data does not transmit to the cradles 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 host interface cable from the cradle. 2. Wait three seconds. 3. Reconnect the host interface cable to the cradle. 4. Reestablish pairing with the cradle by scanning the pairing bar code. Charging the Digital Scanner in the Cradle The scanner ships with the battery installed. It is recommended that the battery be fully charged before first used as it ships with an approximate 10% charge. Scanner and battery, by default, ship in battery off mode. To enable the battery pull the scanner trigger. If the scanner does not boot then the battery is low and requires charging. To charge the battery, insert the scanner in the cradle (see Inserting the Digital Scanner in the Cradle. on page 5). The battery begins charging when the cradle LED indicator starts flashing amber. The battery is fully charged when the cradle LED is solid green. A complete charge of a fully discharged battery can take up to five hours in the cradle with external power. Cradle LED Indicators LED Indication Standard Use Green (stays on) Power up Radio Indications Green (off, then on) Bluetooth connection established Battery Indications Amber blinking Charging Green (stays on) Fully charged Amber fast blinking Charging error Troubleshooting If the cradle does not work after following the previous procedures:
Check the system power. MN-002917-02ENa_cr2278pc-qrg-en.fm Page 7 Quick Reference Guide 7 Check for loose cable connections. Check that the digital 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. If water spills on the contacts area, the unit might not function properly. Turn the power off and tilt the cradle to drain as much liquid as possible. Do not shake the cradle. Use a paper towel to dry the outside surfaces, and expose the unit to room conditions for up to 24 hours to allow liquid to dry around the contacts.
