Note: External antennas must only be installed by trained professionals.

1Lift the cover from the antenna connector.

2Secure the antenna cable to the connector. The CV31 automatically detects the connection, disables the internal antenna, and uses the external antenna.

3Use your own mounting hardware to secure the antenna to a wall, forklift, or other surface.

About the Bar Code Slot Reader

Install a visible light (P/N 858-098-001) or infrared light (P/N 858-098-

002)bar code slot reader (Model AR3) to scan and enter bar code data. The CV31 decodes the bar code and enters the data or command.

When you scan a bar code, the Good Read LED turns green to indicate a successful scan.
