1INTRODUCTION
Product Description
The qDock RA0005 is a low cost, Multiple Charging Docking Station & USB 2.0 Hub that allows to charge and connect
for Data & Firmware upgrade up to three qIDmini R1170I readers directly thought their micro USB connector and
without cables.
The docking station is provided together with its External Power Supply to be connected to a power socket for
charging. When connected to the power supply, the docking station can charge up to three qIDmini Readers in parallel
with a full current rate (500 mA).
The USB device port allows to connect the docking station to a PC to upgrade the firmware of the readers when
needed. The USB port alone (without the Power supply) allows to charge a single Reader (due to the input USB current
limitation). To this purpose, insert the Reader into the slot in the center.
The docking station can be also wall mounted using the provided hooks.
Two LEDs positioned near the side power jack and the USB connector indicate respectively the charging status (green
when charging), and the communication status (orange when connected).
