Charging Batteries

Before using the CS4070 for the first time, charge the battery using the micro USB cable or a cradle until the green charge status LED lights. See Table 2-1 on p age 2-3 for charge status indications. For information about the charging accessories available for the devic e, see Appendix B, Accessories.
NOTE If the battery is removed or replaced, the device cold boots. The internal back up battery retains the
real-time clock.

Charging the Battery in a CS4070

Use one of the following methods to charge the battery when installed in a CS4070:
Connect the micro USB cable to the micro USB port on the device , and the othe r end to a USB port on a
host computer. Note that the scanner can not scan when connected to a host computer.
Connect the micro USB cable to the micro USB port on the device, and the other end to a USB power
adapter plugged into an AC outlet.
Insert the CS4070 into a powered single-slot or 8-slot charging cradle. See Single-Slot CS4070 Charging
Cradle with Spare Battery Charger on page B-3 or Eight-Slot CS4070 Charging Cradle on page B-5 for
more information. The CS4070 begins charging. The charge status LED flashes amb er while charging, then turns solid green
when fully charged. See Table 2-1 on page 2-3 for charging indications.

Charging Spare Batteries

To charge a spare battery, insert the ba tter y in to a sl o t of a powere d sp ar e battery ch arging accessory with the charging contacts facing down, contacting the charging pins in the cradle. See Single-Slot CS4070 Charging
Cradle with Spare Battery Charger on page B-3 or Eight-Slot Spare Battery Charger on page B-7.
The battery begins charging. The charge LED on the cradle lights to show the charge status.

Charging Temperature

IMPORTANT:
Charge batteries in temperatures from 0°C to 35°C (32°F to 95°F). Note that at temperatures above 30°C the charging temperatur e is monitored and controlled by the de vice and
the charging accessory. Charging is halted at temperatures above 35°C. The device or accessory indicates when charging is disabled due to abnormal temper atures via it s LED and/or
battery icon. See Table 2-1 on page 2-3, Table B-2 on page B-4, and Table B-3 on page B-8.

Connecting to the Host Computer

Batch Connection

The micro USB cable enables communication between the CS4070 and a PC, and charges the battery in the CS4070.
NOTE To enter batch scanning mode, the scanner cannot be paired to a Bluetooth host.
To connect the CS4070 to a USB device:
1. Connect the USB A end of the USB cable to a USB port of the host or device.
2. Connect the micro USB connector of the cable to the CS4070.

Micro USB Cable Communication

Bluetooth Connection: Development Options

NOTE Multiple scanners can connect to a single host via SPP or HID. The host application must sort the data it
receives from the scanner.
Serial Port Profile
This Bluetooth profile emulates a serial cable to provide a simply implemented wireless replacement for existing RS-232 based serial communications applications, including familiar control signals. It is the preferred communication profile implementation because accidental key strokes from the keyboard or touch screen on the host are not entered into the bar code data strea m.
Human Interface Device Emulation
This Bluetooth profile is a lightweight wrapper of the Human Interface Device protocol defined for USB. Data transmitted from the Bluetooth scanner appears as keyboard entries to the Bluetooth host (Smartphone, PC, etc).
NOTE Wedge data appears within whichever application has input focus.

Pairing

Pairing the CS4070 with a host device typically requires holding the Bluetooth button to place the scanner in discoverable mode, then scanning a pairing PIN if required. The CS4070 reme mbe rs the PIN fo r the last eigh t devices to which it paired, and can establish connection to these devices without customer input after the initial pairing.
NOTE When using the dongle, simply scan the pairing bar code on the dongle to connect. No PIN is required.
Note that the dongle allows a single connection only.
Supported Devices
The CS4070 supports connection to the following types of devices:
iOS
Android
Windows 8 Pro
Windows 7 Pro
Windows XP (Microsoft, Broadcom, and other commonly av ailab l e Blue to ot h stacks)
Windows RT
Windows Embedded Compact (CE7) To pair to a Bluetooth-enabled host:
1. Press the scan button (+) to wake the scanner.
2. Press and hold the Bluetooth button until the scanner beeps and the blue LED begins to flash to indicate
that the scanner is discoverable by the host.
3. On the host, launch the Bluetooth pairing application and pla ce th e ap plic at ion into disco ve r Blue to ot h
device mode.
4. Select the CS4070 from the discovered device list. The Bluetooth application may prompt you to scan a
PIN it generated, or for you to create and then scan the PIN.
5. If required, scan PIN Entry Bar Codes on page C-9 that correspond to the PIN, then scan Enter.
The Bluetooth button blinks slowly to indicate that the scanner paired with the host.
NOTE Bluetooth pairing suspends temporarily while charging via a USB cable. Disconnecting the cable
re-establishes Bluetooth pairing.
NOTE When pairing with an iPad, press the delete key (- ) on the CS4070 to toggle the virtual keyboard on and
off.
For pairing examples, see Appendix C, Bluetooth Connection Examples.
Getting Started 1 - 7

Unpairing

To temporarily unpair the scanner and host, press and hold the Bluetooth button for 2 seconds, then release. This disables Bluetooth and the Bluetooth button stops blinking. Pressing the Bluetooth button again re-pairs the scanner with the host.
NOTE If the Bluetooth button is held for longer than 5 seconds, the scanner terminates the wireless connection,
if already paired and connected to a host system. The scanner then enters discovery mode, searching for a new host with which to pair and establish a new wireless connection.
To permanently unpair the scanner and host, scan Unpair on page 3-8. This allows the scanner to pair to a different host device.
NOTE To enter batch scanning mode, the scanner cannot be paired to a Bluetooth host (applies to CS4070
model only).

Deleting the CS4070 from the Device List

To delete the device from the discovered devices list, tap and old the device and select Delete.

Configuring the Scanner

123Scan2

To configure the scanner via 123Scan2, use this utility to generate a 2D bar code with the desired configuration options. Scan the bar code to configure the scanner with these options. Note that the CS4070 does not support 1D configuration bar codes. See Chapter 6, 123Scan2.

Parameter Bar Codes and Config.ini

To configure the scanne r:
1. Scan the parameter bar codes in Chapter 3, User Preferences and Chapter 5, Symbologies to customize
scanner operation.
2. For additional customization, edit the Config.ini file on the scanner using the options in Editing the
Configuration File on page 1-9.
3. When deploying the new configuration to multiple scanners, to ensure unique CS4070 serial numbers
appear in the host’s discovery window, edit the blank (“BTName=”) to ensure that each scanner uses the default BT name of
Config.ini file to either remove the BTName entry or set it to
CS4070:<serial number>.
Staging Multiple Scanners
After creating a config.ini file for one “golden” scanner with all desired settings, create a copy of the file from this scanner and copy it to other scanners via USB connection. Set the time and date on the “cloned” scanners by scanning bar codes from Set Date and Time on page 3-5.
NOTE When deploying the new configuration to multiple scanners, to ensure unique CS4070 serial nu mbers
appear in the host’s discovery window, edit the Config.ini file to either remove the BTName entry or set it to blank (“BTName=”) to ensure that each scanner uses the default BT name of CS4070:<serial number>.

Updating Scanner Firmware

To update scanner firmware:
1. Connect the micro USB cable from the host to the CS4070.
2. Copy the .dat and .bin files to the root directory of the scanner.
3. Disconnect the cable when the host indicates that it is safe to remove.
After several minutes the LED turns green to indicate that the firmware was successfully installed.

Editing the Configuration File

Use a text editor such as Notepad to set configuration values in the Config.ini editable text file in the
\Parameters folder on the CS4070. Table 1-1 lists the programmable contents of the file.
NOTE If you make errors while editing the Config.ini file, the file LOG.TXT is created in the \Parameters folder.
Consult this log file to determine the errors and make corrections.
