Connecting the Cradle

Connect the cradle to a host device or power source to provide charging and/or communication with the host device.
Both the USB-C and RJ50 cables provide communication and power.
You can plug in either the RJ-50 or USB-C cable to the cradle. Connect the cable to a power source to charge the scanner, or to a host device to provide both power and communication between the cradle and host device.
You can use two cables simultaneously to increase charging speed; connect the RJ-50 cable to a host computer and the USB-C cable to a host or 5 VDC wall adapter.
  • When both cables are connected, the RJ50 becomes the active path for all data.
  • If the RJ50 does not have a valid host, the data path falls back to USB-C.
  • Power is always consumed from the cable that provides faster charging.
  • The cradle resets every time a change in cable configuration occurs.
  • the USB BC 1.2 detection is supported on both RJ50 and USB-c connectors. Connect to BC 1.2-capable or USB-C host ports for fastest USB charging.
  1. Connect the cable to the host computer
    or power supply
    .
    If you are using the USB-C cable, use the USB-C to USB-A (CBL-U67-S07ZAR) or USB-C to USB-C (CBA-U65-S07ZAR) with a power adaptor or host computer.
  2. Insert a cable into the cradle.
    The cable should connect to the cradle before the host.
  3. Route the cable through the cradle cable grooves, using the tabs to keep the cable in place.
