Introduction

Chapter 1 Getting Started

The HR52 wireless 2D barcode scanner reads a 1D or 2D barcode by capturing its image. Adopting the advanced technology independently developed by Newland Auto-ID Tech, it provides five scan modes, including Level mode, Sense mode, Continuous mode, Pulse mode and Batch mode, tailored to different scanning needs.
An illustrated introduction to the NLS-HR32 is included in this chapter. If you have an HR52 scanner at hand, make good use of it to develop a better understanding of this manual. This chapter is written for normal users, maintenance staff and software developers.
Features of the NLS-HR32
More reliable, more versatile, more efficient scanning solution
Bluetooth 5.0 radio (Frequency: 2402-2480MHz, RF Power: -0.69dBm)
User-friendly illumination & aim i ng
Ultra-rugged construction
Flexible mounting of cradle

Unpacking

Open the package and take out NLS-HR32 scanner and its accessories. Check to make sure everything on the packing list is present and intact. If any contents are damaged or missing, please keep the original package and contact your dealer immediately for after-sales service.

Mounting the Cradle

The CD52 cradle can be set up in a horizo ntal or vertical position. Choose a mounting position that fits your need.

Horizontal Mount

The cradle is originally assembled in the horizontal position, as shown below.

Vertical Mount

1. Remove the clips from the horizontal crad le and then atta ch the clips for vert ical positio n to the correspondin g spots on the cradle.

2. Grab and pull the right board horiz ontally away from the cradle. Then rem ov e the main piece.
3. Insert the protruding part o n the left side of the main pie ce into the groove on the left board, so that the main piece is vertical. Attach the right board to the main piece.
9

Wall Mount

1. Remove the plate from the chassis by pressing the plastic clip F in with an appropriate tool.
2. Install the two plastic wall anchors in a wall and use screws to secure the plate to the wall with its A side f acin g the wall. Slide the vertical cradle onto the plate.
10

Connecting the Cradle to a Host

The cradle must be connected to a host in act ual application, such as PC, POS or any intellige nt terminal with USB or RS-232 port, using a communication cable (USB or RS-232 cable).
USB
USB port on the Host
RS-232
RS-232 port on the Host
Note: Please check the port on the host and purchase the cable accordingly.

Using USB Cable

Connect the cradle to a Host using a USB cable with RJ45 and USB connectors:
1. Plug the RJ45 connector of the cable int o the data port on the cradle.
2. Plug the USB connector of the cable into the USB port on the Host.
3. Plug the supplied power adapter into the power jack on the cradle.
11

Using RS-232 Cable

Connect the cradle to a Host using an RS-232 c able with RJ45 and RS-232 connector s and a power jack:
1. Plug the RJ45 connector of the cable into the data port on the cradle.
2. Plug the RS-232 connector of the cable into the RS-232 port on the Host.
3. Plug the supplied power adapter int o the power jack on the cradle.

Charging the Scanner Battery

To charge the scanner battery, insert the scanner in a powered cradle. You can check the charge status with the red and green LEDs on the cradle.
Red LED steady on No scanner placed on cradle Red LED flashes Charging in progress, low battery level Green LED flashes Charging in progress, medium battery level Green LED steady on Fully charged
12

Pairing the Scanner to a Cradle

Before configuring or using the scan ner, you must pair it to a cradle first. A cradle can pair with up to seven scanners if Multipoint-to-Point mode is enabled.
You need to perform the pairing operati on manually: After the scanner and cradle are turn ed on, insert the scanner in t he cradle and then press the Pair button on the cradle. The scanner beeps on a successful pairing.
To unpair them, you may pair the scanner to another crad le, or scan the Clear Pairing Info on Cradle or Clear Pairing
Info on Scanner barcode in Chapter 4.

Searching Paired Scanner(s)

After the scanner(s) and cradle are turned on, press the Pair button on the cradle and the paired scanner(s) will beep.

Wireless Communications

The scanner can communicate with a remot e host using Bluetooth, or by pairing with a CD52 cradle that supports the following interefaces:
Standard RS-232 connection to a host. For the cable connec tion instruc tions, see the “ Using RS-232 Cable” section
in this chapter. To learn how to configur e R S-232 communication parameters, see Chapter 5.
USB connection to a host. For the cab le connection ins tructions, se e the “Using USB Ca ble” section in this chapter.
To learn how to configure USB communication parameters, see Chapter 6.
For wireless communication parameters, s ee Chapter 4.

Power On, Power Off, Reboot

Power on the scanner
Hold down the trigger on the scanner until it beeps. Note: When using the scanner for the first time or after scanning the Battery Of f barcode in Chapter 3, you MUST insert
the scanner in a powered cradle to exit battery protection mode before turning it on.
Power off the scanner Method 1: When in the Level scan mode, the scanner will automatically power off after 5 minutes of inac tivity. Method 2: Scan the Power Off Scanner barcode in Chapter 3.
Reboot the scanner
If the scanner stops responding t o input or runs abnormally, use a straightened papercl ip to press and hold the Reset button on the bottom of the scanner t o r eboot it.

Maintenance

The scan window should be kept clean.
Do not scratch the scan window.
Use soft brush to remove the stain from the scan window.
Use the soft cloth to clean the windo w, such as eyeglass cleaning cloth.
Do not spray any liquid on the scan window.
Do not use any detergent to clean other parts of the device except for water.
The warranty DOES NOT cover damages caused by inappropriate care and mai ntenance.
