CradlePoint USB/Ethernet Charging Cradle User Guide 

Operating the Cradle  

The cradle helps you perform three basic functions: 
 

1.

 

Communication 

2.

 

Charge your handheld terminal 

3.

 

Charge your spare battery 

Setting Your Communication Path 

The switch on the side of the cradle can be set in either of two positions:  
 

NETWORK 

Move the switch to the 
left-hand position for 
NETWORK 
communications.  
While in this position, 
you will be able to 
communicate via your 
network, to a networked 
device or the internet. 

 

 

The Switch is recessed, so you 

might need to use your terminal’s 

stylus to change settings. 

USB

 

Move the switch to the 
right-hand position for USB 
communications. While in 
this position, you will be
