Chapter 1 The LS 3070 Cordless Scanner The Freedom of Cordless Scanning The LS 3070 is a revolutionary, cordless approach to capturing bar coded data. The scanner communicates with your host computer through a low-power radio transmission instead of through a cable. With the LS 3070, you are free to scan and transmit without a physical cable to limit your movement, from as far away as 30 - 50 feet (9 - 15 meters), depending on your environment. This lets you take the scanner to where

LS 3070 Product Reference Guide: The LS 3070 Cordless Scanner Rechargeable Battery Pack In the handle of the scanner, there is a rechargeable NiCad battery pack. This provides all power to the scanner during normal operation. It provides 360 mA hours, which is sufficient for normal operation during an 8-hour shift. When fully depleted, the battery module can be recharged to full charge within two hours, with the LS 3070 inserted into the RL 470 base/charger unit. Alternatively, the batt

LS 3070 Product Reference Guide: The LS 3070 Cordless Scanner The Base/Charger Unit The base/charger unit has two primary functions. First, it is the base station interface that manages the flow of information from the scanner to the host device. Second, it is a charging stand which charges the scanner’s battery module (located in the handle) and also holds the scanner securely when it is not in use. An LED indicates the status of battery charging. Host Cable Power Supply Connecti

Chapter 2 Setup Unpacking Remove the LS 3070, the RL 470 base/charger unit, and the host interface cable from its packing and inspect each for evidence of physical damage. If any equipment was damaged in transit, call the Symbol Support Center at the number in the front matter. KEEP THE PACKING. It is the approved shipping container and should be used if you ever need to return your equipment for servicing. Connecting the Cable to the Base/Charger Unit The cable connects to

LS 3070 Product Reference Guide: Setup The RL 470 base station is a charger, host interface, and — significantly — receiving station for RF transmission. Therefore, do not install the RL 470 inaccessibly under a table or buried in a desk drawer. At a minimum, mount the RL 470 on a table or desk top. For optimum RF performance, especially in difficult environments, mount the RL 470 on a wall as high as possible. But keep in mind the limits of interface cable length and charging ac

LS 3070 Product Reference Guide: Setup Charging the Battery Before its first use, the LS 3070 batteries must be charged. To do so: • Connect the power supply to the power input port on the front panel of the RL 470 base/charger, shown in Figure 1-3: RL 470 Base/Charger Unit on page 1-4. • Connect the power supply to a receptacle supplying AC power of the proper voltage level. • Then insert the scanner into the base/charger cradle, so that the nose of the scanner and tip

LS 3070 Product Reference Guide: Setup Note: When setting the address of the base, you automatically set the initial frequency on which the base and the scanner communicate. In order to minimize possible interference between systems, bases which are close to each other should be assigned sequential addresses. Set the address through setting two rotary dials, located by opening a panel on the base/charger’s underside. Turn the base/charger upside down, open the panel, and notice two

This occurs in less than a second. • After that exchange, the scanner and base/charger are paired. Successful pairing is indicated by a warble beep; failure, or unsuccessful link, is indicated by a Lo Lo Lo Lo beep. Setting Transmission Frequency Each scanner/base pair c

LS 3070 Product Reference Guide: Setup Occasionally, there can be excessive interference on a channel from some other source of radio transmissions. In this case, the default channel of a system can be changed using the parameter codes for Set Transmission Frequency. If you find a particular scanner/base pair has trouble communicating over a normal operating distance, try setting different transmission frequencies to see if performance improves.

Chapter 3 Scanning with the LS 3070 1. Ready Before starting to scan bar codes for data collection, make sure: • The base station is connected to the host device. • The battery has been charged. • The scanner is paired with the base/charger. 2. Test Aim the scanner toward a bar code and press the trigger. When you press the trigger, the scanning beam is energized. 3. Scan Make sure the symbol you want to scan is within the proper scanning range. (See Decode Zones beginning on page 3-6.) Aim
