Ensure that you have properly installed the Desktop Software.
If it is not already open, launch the Desktop Manager by

Plug the charging cradle into an available power source (if you
are using a rechargeable battery, otherwise leave unplugged).
Insert the end of the charging cradle cable into a COM port on
the back of your PC.

Secure the handheld in the cradle by inserting the connector
port on the bottom edge of the handheld into the connector
prongs of the cradle and press firmly in place.

the cradle (with the AC connector plugged into a power
outlet) and allow the handheld to fully charge to activate it.
