Using CradleSmartConfig

Prior to using CradleSmartConfig, all new cradles should be mounted to a wall, including all power connections. We assume they are not programmed, and all cradles are functioning with a unique, factory-set serial number.
  1. Swipe up from the bottom of the Home screen and touch
    CradleSmartConfig
    Cradle Smart Config Icon.
    The CradleSmartConfig screen displays.
  2. Complete the following:
    • Rows - The cradle row number in the dispenser wall.
    • Columns - The column number in the dispenser wall.
    • Wall ID - The number of dispenser wall where the cradle is positioned.
    • Fast Charge - Touch to enable the cradle to charge the device at a current of 1.5 A (default setting is 1 A).
    • SHD Mode - Touch to enable super high density (SHD) mode, where the cradles are mounted horizontal to the ground.
  3. The cradle ID, location, and charging rate are retained across firmware upgrades.
  4. Select SINGLE SLOT to program a wall of single slot cradles or select THREE SLOT to program a wall of three slot cradles.
    A map of cradle icons display, based on the number of rows and columns entered in the previous step. For reference, the top left corner is Row 1, Column 1 (R1C1).
  5. (Optional) Navigate around the screen. To scroll left/right and up/down:
    1. Touch and drag your finger on the screen.
    2. Locate the graphic on the bottom of the screen to show where you are on the map. Scroll bars allow you to drag the screen to see a portion of the total wall.
  6. (Optional) Delete cradle slots not used. For example, placeholders for a kiosk, TV, computer monitor, or unique store shapes. To delete cradle slots:
    1. Touch and hold (long press) the cradle slot icon.
    2. Select DELETE to confirm.
  7. Insert the device in the first cradle in the top left corner (Row 1, Column 1).
  8. Touch Start.
    A Warning dialog displays indicating the correct sequence to follow when configuring the cradles.
  9. Select Ok.
    CradleSmartConfig programs the row, column, and wall information onto the cradle.
    After the first cradle is programmed successfully, a checkmark appears in the location of the cradle icon, and an arrow on the screen points in the direction of where to insert the device in the next slot. An audible sound or visual cradle charge indication may be present.
  10. Remove the device from the first cradle, and move in the specified direction to insert the device in the next slot.
    CradleSmartConfig directs the user to move in the proper direction. If the device is inserted into the wrong slot, the user is prompted.
    If the device is inserted into the same slot, a message indicates that the cradle has already been configured.
    Note that each slot on the Three Slot Cradle needs to be programmed separately. The app guides the user to change rows in a zig-zag pattern for efficiency, with the first row going from left to right with serial numbers (last digits) 1,2,3 and the next row going from right to left with serial numbers (last digits) 3,2,1. The app also guides the user to skip the empty or blank areas. In a single slot cradle, the HW serial number's last digit is 0.
  11. Moving in the direction specified, repeat until all cradles are configured.
    If the user abandons programming before the entire wall is completed, the user must start over from the beginning.
    The app detects when it has reached the end of the wall, and the Configuration complete dialog displays.
  12. Select one of the following:
    • QUICK AUDIT - A sample of cradles are validated, and the expected data is compared to what is actually found. Blinking cradles are displayed one after the other at the four corners. The device to be validated should be placed in the middle slot of the blinking icon.
    • FULL AUDIT - All cradles are validated, and the expected data is compared to what is actually found.
    • RETURN TO HOME PAGE - Displays the CradleSmartConfig screen.
