CradlePoint USB/Ethernet Charging Cradle User Guide
Choosing a Communication Connection
Before you prepare the cradle to communicate, you must decide which type of
communication you desire: (1) direct communication with a USB device or (2)
communication with a remote location via your network.
Direct Communication with your Host Computer or a USB Device
To connect your terminal with your host computer or a USB device, follow these simple
steps:
Plug the USB
Mini-B
connector
into the Mini-
AB connector
on the rear of
the cradle.
Plug the USB
Standard-A
connector into a
USB port on your
computer.
Slide the
Network/USB
switch on the side
of the cradle to the
right so that it
indicates USB-
communications.
Once you have the
cradle connected to the
host device, insert the
handheld terminal into
the cradle. Now you can
communicate with your
host device to transmit,
or synchronize, data.
You can even browse
the internet if the host
device is connected to a
network with internet
access.
You can confirm that you are correctly connected by performing an ActiveSync
operation. ActiveSync software is provided with your Symbol handheld
terminal. Instructions for using ActiveSync are in your Symbol documentation.
Once your ActiveSync partnership has been established, you can communicate
with any networked computer or the internet (if your network has internet
access).
