BC9180™ Base Station/Charger
The BC9180™ Base Station/Charger
The BC9180™ base station, when paired with one or more PowerScan™
9500 readers, builds a Cordless Reading System for the collection,
decoding and transmission of bar code data. It can be connected to a
Host PC via Ethernet Host Interface. The BC91x0 models also provide a
spare battery charger slot.
The label on the cradle contains LED indicators and a multi-function but-
ton. When the button is pressed for less than 5 seconds, the cradle will
transmit a "broadcast" message." When the broadcast is sent, all properly
configured scanners that are linked to that base and within radio range
coverage will emit a beep and blink within 5 seconds. This functionality is
useful for:
• Verifying which scanners are linked to
a certain base station
• Paging (detect the position of linked
scanners)
The LEDs signal the BC9180 status, as
shown in
Table 1
.
