Linking Image Scanner to Base
When newly shipped or defaulted to factory settings, the base and image scan-
ner are not linked. Once the image scanner is placed into the base, the soft-
ware automatically links the image scanner and the base. If the image scanner
and base have previously been linked, you do not receive any feedback. If this
is the first time that the image scanner and base are linked, both devices emit a
short chirp when their radios link. At this point, you are set to one image scan-
ner to one base.
1. Provide power to the base.
2. Place the 3820/3820i into the base. The image scanner and base link.
3. To determine if your cordless system is set up correctly, scan one of the
sample bar codes in the back of this manual. If the image scanner provides
a single good read beep and the green LED lights, the image scanner has
successfully linked to the base. If you receive a triple error beep and the red
LED lights, the image scanner has not linked to the base.
Image Scanner Modes
The 3820/3820i is capable of working in single image scanner mode, multiple
image scanner mode, or with Bluetooth devices, other than the 2020 base.
Unlinking the Image Scanner
If the base has an image scanner linked to it, that image scanner must be
unlinked before a new image scanner can be linked. Once the previous image
scanner is unlinked, it will no longer communicate with the base. To unlink an
image scanner from the base, scan the Unlink Image Scanner bar code below.
