The HS-360X Cradle

The HS-360X Cradle is a charger, radio communication interface, and host communication interface for the HS-360X Wireless Scanner.

The wireless cradle charges the scanner and provides host communication by receiving data via a Bluetooth radio, and sending that data to the host through an attached cable. An external

power supply or a powered host cable provides power to the cradle.

For more mounting options, refer to the HS-360X Cradle Quick Start Guide, P/N 83-9310018-02, included with the cradle.

Important: Be sure that the interface cable is pushed all the way into the host port before you close the latch.

Connecting the Cradle

Note: The interface cable and power supply (if necessary) in the following order to ensure proper operation of the scanner and cradle.

To connect the HS-360X Cradle:

1. Connect the appropriate cable to the power supply and an AC power source, if necessary.

2. Insert the interface cable into the host port.

3. Lift the latch and connect the interface cable into the cradle's host port and then close the latch.

4. If applicable, thread the interface cable over the cable support hook and run the host cable into the cable groove.

5. Pair the scanner to the cradle either by inserting it in the cradle (if pair on contacts is enabled), or by scanning the pairing symbol.

6. If necessary, scan the appropriate host symbol (for non-autodetected interfaces). See the specific host chapter.

Note: Always disconnect the DC power supply BEFORE disconnecting the cable to the host end or the cradle may not recognize the new host.

Note: Different cables are required for different hosts. The connectors illustrated in each host chapter are examples only. The connectors may be different from those illustrated, but the steps to connect the scanner remain the same.

Quick Start

Supplying Power to the Cradle

The cradle receives power from one of two sources:

• An external power supply.

• When connected to the host through an interface cable that supplies power.

The cradle detects whether the host or the external supply is supplying power. It always draws power from the external supply when available, regardless of the presence of power from a host.

Mounting the Cradle

For information on mounting the cradle, refer to the documentation included with the cradle.

Inserting the Battery

Inserting the Wireless HS-360X Battery

A PowerPrecision+ 3100 mAh Li-Ion rechargeable battery ships with each wireless HS-360X. Batteries are shipped in an Off mode and do not power the scanner. After inserting a new battery into the HS-360X scanner, you must insert the scanner into a cradle for the battery to turn On.

Alternatively, the battery can be placed in the four slot spare battery charger to charge and then inserted in the scanner for immediate use.

The battery resides in a chamber in the scanner handle. To insert the battery:

1. Lightly press down and slide the locking lever counterclockwise to unlock and release the battery door.

2. Open the battery door.

3. If a battery is already installed, turn the scanner upright to slide the battery out.

4. Slide the new battery into the chamber, with the rounded side toward the back and the contacts facing into the chamber.

1. Close the battery door.

2. Lightly press down and slide the locking lever clockwise to lock the battery door.

3. If using a brand new battery, insert the scanner into a cradle to turn the battery on.

Removing the HS-360X Battery

To remove the battery:

1. Lightly press down and slide the locking lever counterclockwise to unlock the battery door.

2. Open the battery door.

3. Turn the scanner upright to slide the battery out.

Charging the HS-360X Battery

When using a new battery in the HS-360X, the battery requires a charge to be enabled. Insert the battery in the HS-360X and place the HS-360X in the cradle.

The battery begins charging when the cradle’s LED indicator starts blinking amber. The HS-360X’s battery has completed a charge when the cradle’s LED indicator is solid green. A complete charge of a fully discharged battery can take up to three hours using external power and up to ten hours using USB power over the USB interface cable.

To avoid a battery temperature fault, always charge the battery in the scanner within the recommended temperature of 32° to 104° F (0° to 40° C) nominal, 41° to 95° F (5° to 35° C) ideal.

Inserting the HS-360X Scanner in the Cradle

To insert the scanner in the cradle:

1. Insert the scanner into the cradle top first.

Push the handle until it clicks into place, engaging the contacts in the cradle and scanner.

HS-360X Handheld DPM Scanner User Manual 1-9

HS-360X Wireless Handheld DPM Scanner

Sending Data to the Host Computer

The 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.

Pairing

Pairing registers a scanner to the cradle such that the scanner and cradle can exchange information. The cradle operates in two modes: Point-to-Point and Multipoint-to-Point. In Point-to-Point mode, pair the scanner to the cradle either by inserting it in the cradle (if pair on contacts is enabled), or by scanning the pairing symbol. In Multipoint-to-Point mode, you can pair up to seven scanners to one cradle.

To pair the scanner with the cradle, scan a pairing symbol. 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.

The pairing symbol that connects the scanner to a cradle is unique to each cradle. Do not scan data or parameters until pairing completes.

Lost Connection to Host

If 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 the host requires.

6. Reestablish pairing with the cradle by scanning the pairing symbol.

Configuring the Scanner

Use the configuration symbols in this manual or the WebLink configure the scanner.
