Using the Charge/Comm Cable

The Charge/Comm cable charges the terminal and communicates with a host workstation. There are three connectors: one connects the terminal to an external power source, another to the host workstation, and another to the terminal itself.

The charge/comm cable is actually two cables: a power cable and a communication cable. You can use it to charge only, communicate only or connect the cables to each other to charge and communicate at the same time.

Communication Connector

The communication connector connects the terminal to a host device via USB (v1.1 or higher) or RS-232; USB is shown above. Plug this connector directly into a host workstation, then establish ActiveSync Communication (see page 12-5).

The USB plug has four(4) pins and fits into standard desktop computers and laptops.

Ferrite Bead

This is a Urite ferrite bead.

Jackscrews

The jackscrews secure the terminal connector to the I/O connector on the terminal. Once the terminal connector is plugged into the I/O connector on the bottom panel of the terminal, turn both jackscrews to the right to secure the connection.

Power Cable Connector

The power cable connector connects the charge cable to the power cable. The power cable powers the terminal and charges the main battery pack.

The power adapter on the power cable is available in US, UK, and EMEA versions. All version convert the voltage from the power source to 9.5 volts DC, which is the maximum voltage the terminal can receive.

Terminal Connector

The terminal connector connects the communication cable to the (see I/O Connector on page 3-9)on the bottom panel of the terminal. The pins in the terminal connector work only with the I/O connector on the terminal. After connecting the pins, secure the cable to the terminal by turning both jackscrews to the right.
