Introduction
The STB3508/3578 cordless scanner cradle acts as a stand, host communication
interface and charger for the LS3578 cordless scanner. It can sit on a desktop or
be mounted on a wall.
The STB3578 cradle receives data from the scanner via a Bluetooth radio, and
ds that data to the host through an attached cable. The cradle also charges
sen
the scanner’s internal battery pack when the scanner is inserted. The scanner can
be charged from an external power supply or using a powered host cable.
This document provides basic instructions o
Unless otherwise noted, “cradle” refers to both configurations of the cradle. Any
discussion of transmission of information refers specifically to the STB3578
cradle.

host port.
2. Connect the other end of the interface
cable to the host.
3. If necessary, connect the power supply to
the cradle’s power port (if required by the
interface, or to allow fast charging of the
scanner).
4. Connect the appropriate cable to the
power supply and an AC power source, if
necessary.
5. If applicable, thread the interface cable
over the cable support hook and run the
host and power cables into their
respective cable grooves.
6. If necessary, scan the appropriate host
bar code (for non-autodetected
interfaces). Refer to the Product
Reference Guide.
Changing the Host Interface
To connect to a different host, or to the same
host through a different cable:
1. Unplug the power supply from the cradle.
2. Unplug the interface cable from the host.
3. Connect the interface cable to the new host, or the new interface cable to the
existing host.
4. Reconnect the power supply, if required.

2. If mounting the cradle horizontally
where no fastening is necessary,
peel the protective paper from the
back of the rubber feet included
with the cradle packaging, and
attach the feet to the cradle at the
indentations in the plastic. These feet provide traction and prevent surface
damage.
Vertical Mount
NOTE Do not use the rubber feet when mounting in a vertical orientation.
To mount the cradle on a vertical surface:
1. Use a Philips screwdriver to turn the desk/wall mount converter knob to the position shown
below. The front latches protract to engage the depressions at the base of the scanner’s
handle.
2. Attach the interface and power cables to the appropriate ports (see Cradle
Connections).
3. Press the cables into the cable grooves.
4. Position the cradle on the mounting surface, or use the template included in
this guide.
5. Mark the surface through the three holes on the bottom of the cradle, or use
the mounting template to determine the location of the screw holes.
6. Pre-drill holes to accommodate three 1.5" #8 Philips head screws.
7. Attach the cradle securely to the surface.
8. Place the scanner in the cradle.

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 STB3578 operates in two modes: scanner-to-cradle
and multi scanner-to-cradle. In scanner-to-cradle mode, the scanner is paired to
the cradle either by insertion into the cradle (if pairing on insertion is enabled), or
by scanning the pairing bar code. In multi scanner-to-cradle mode, up to three
scanners can be paired to one cradle. A multipoint bar code must be scanned to
activate this feature. Refer to the Product Reference Guide for more information.
The cradle includes pairing bar codes on both it
scanner with the cradle, scan a pairing bar code. 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. Refer to the Product Reference Guide for more information.
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 required.

6. Reestablish pairing with the cradle by scanning the pairing bar code.
NOTE The ST
B3578 does not always require a power supply, depending
on the host interface.
Charging the Scanner Battery in the Cradle
To charge the scanner battery, place the scanner in the cradle (see Inserting the
Scanner in the Cradle). The battery begins charging when t
indicator starts flashing green. A complete
charge of a fully discharged battery can
take up to four hours using external power and up to 10 hours using the interface
cable.
Scanner LED Indicators
The green LED on the scanner indicates charging activity (see the table below). If
the scanner is charging in fast mode (non-bus powered mode), the green LED
blinks at a fast rate. If the scanner is charging in slow mode (bus-powered mode),
the LED blinks at a slow rate.
If the red LED on the scanner begins flashing
remove the scanner from the cradle and replace the battery. If the red LED on the
scanner continues flashing, contact a Zebra business Support Center.
