Introduction

The FLB3508/3578 cordless scanner cradle acts as a stand, host communication interface and charger for the LS3578 cordless scanner. It attaches to a mounting bracket using three isolators. The bracket is then mounted on the forklift surface. The FLB3578 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. A portable power supply on the forklift supplies power to the cradle. This document provides basic instructions on setting up and using the cradle.

CAUTION LS3478 cordless scanners are incompatible with FLB3508/3578

cradles. LS3578 cordless scanners are incompatible with FLB3408/3478 cradles.
