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.
