Configuring the Base Station
Connecting the Base Station
Figure 1 shows how to connect the Base Station to a terminal, PC or other host device. Turn off the host before connection and con- sult the manual for that equipment (if necessary) before proceed- ing. Connect the interface cable before applying power to the Base Station.
Gryphon Mobile can also be Powered by the Terminal. The external power supply is recommended but not necessary. When powered by the Terminal, the battery charger is automatically set as Slow charge.
NOTE
Base Station Connection and Routing: Fully insert the Power Ca- ble and Interface (I/F) Cable connectors into their respective ports in the underside of the Base Station (see Figure 1). Then connect to an AC Adapter, and plug the AC power cord into the (wall) outlet.

Securing the DC Power Cord (Optional)
The DC power cord for the adapter can be secured to the bottom of the base in order to maximize the mechanical retention of the cable itself. The routing of the power cord can be changed to ac- commodate the base station positioning: horizontal, stand or wall mounting. The cables can be looped around to the front of the Base Station, or fed directly out the back of the Base Station, as shown in Figure 2 on page 15.
