Operation of the Charging Cradle
To operate the charging cradle, motion detection must first be activated using the appropriate
control code. The handheld reader is inserted into the charging cradle and can detect codes in
the reading area via the bottom of the charging cradle. The handheld reader provides motion
detection. The handheld reader automatically attempts to read a code as soon as movement in
the reading area is detected. It is not necessary to activate the trigger button. These features
make the handheld reader especially suitable for picking applications. This means that the
worker can hold packages with codes for automatic reading and recording under the charging
cradle and an extra hand is therefore not required. In addition, the handheld reader can be
removed from the charging cradle for recording codes on pallets and can be used on the move.
When an object is in the field of view of the handheld reader, the reader automatically lights up
red, switches on the blue bar, and attempts to read the code. If the reading operation is suc-
cessful, the function indicator on the handheld reader briefly lights up green. Once Vision Con-
figurator mode is activated, an audible signal is emitted and the handheld reader vibrates.
