Introduction

The CR0008-S Series cradle acts as a stand and charger for the LS4278 and
DS6878 cordless scanners.

The CR0078-S Series cordless scanner cradle acts as a stand, charger and host
communication interface for LS4278 and DS6878 cordless scanners. The
CR0078-S Series cradle receives data from the scanner via a Bluetooth radio,
and sends that data to the host through an attached cable. The cradle also
charges the scanner’s internal battery pack when the scanner is inserted. The
scanner can be charged through the cradle from an external power supply or
using a powered host cable.

The cradles can sit on a desktop or mount on a wall, computer work station or
medical cart.

This document provides basic instructions on setting up and using the cradle.
Unless otherwise noted, “cradle” refers to all configurations of the cradle. Any
discussion of transmission of information refers specifically to the CR0078-S
Series cradle.

Accessories

The following equipment may be needed:

• Power supply (see Power Supply on page 11).

• Mounting bracket for vertical cradle mounting (p/n 21-135001-01).

Save the shipping container for storing or shipping. Inspect all equipment for
damage. If anything is damaged or missing, call an authorized Customer Support
Representative immediately.
