Cordless Scanning System Quick Start 1
Cordless Quick Start Guide
Introduction
The cordless scanning system consists of the SCANTEAM 2070 Base unit and
at least one IMAGETEAM 3870 Cordless Linear Imager, IMAGETEAM 3875
Cordless Linear Imager, or SCANTEAM 5770 Cordless Laser Scanner. Up to
nine IT3870, IT3875, or ST5770 scanners may be associated with one base.
Each cordless scanner has a removable, rechargeable charge pack and
provides real time decoding within 100 feet (30 m) radius of the base unit
depending on the environment.
The IT3875 is intended to serve cordless applications that require enhanced
user/host interaction. The addition of the 16-key keypad and 97 x 32 pixel
graphic (16 character by 4 lines of text) LCD backlit display enables the user to
enter data and view confirmation of receipt of data. The IT3875 linear imagers
ship with two installed factory scripts and a product demo. These scripts keep
track of scan history or part number and quantity.
Two PC tools also are available to help generate custom applications: IQ App
Loader™ and IQ App Designer™. IQ App Loader is used to compile and load
custom script applications created with a text editor. IQ App Designer, an
optional PC software tool, automates the creation of scripts and the task of
loading a user script application to the system. Using IQ App Designer you may
build custom script applications with minimal programming experience.
The cordless system is an economical, durable solution for a wide variety of
portable data collection applications. The cordless system features:
• a tough, ergonomic thermoplastic housing for comfort and durability.
• an advanced two-way spread-spectrum radio
• recognition and decoding of the most popular, industry-standard bar code
symbologies, including PDF417.
• coverage of up to 31,416 square feet (2,919 square meters) around the base.
• a wide range of interfaces that are compatible with many POS, keyboard
wedge, wands and laser emulation, RS-232 terminals, and legacy decoders.
• visible and audible feedback for confirmation of a successful decode.
• rechargeable charge packs designed to operate through a whole work day.
This Quick Start Guide contains information about charging your cordless
scanner’s charge pack and associating the scanner to the base. For more
detailed information on how to set up, operate, and program the cordless system,
see the Cordless System Manual.

2 Cordless Scanning System Quick Start
This guide contains the following information:
• Charge pack and charging Information
• Associating the cordless scanner to a base
• Customer support information
• Limited warranty and warranty durations
About the Charge Pack
(CLESS/NIMH/S)
Power is supplied to the cordless scanner by a
rechargeable charge pack that snaps onto the
bottom of the scanner. Each scanner is shipped
with a charge pack.* (See the charge pack
specifications in the Cordless System Manual for
storage information.)
*Order backup or replacement charge pack(s) from
your distributor.
North American Charging Information
The charge pack is designed to plug into any two-
prong North American AC power outlet for direct
charging. You need no additional equipment, and you can recharge the pack
virtually anywhere.
Worldwide Charging Information
Since the charge pack is rated for both 120/240 V, 50/60Hz applications, it may
be charged worldwide. Inexpensive snap-on adapters and custom 2-bay and 6-
bay charge strips are available to accommodate a wide variety of electrical
outlets internationally.
Charge Pack Recommendations
• Charge packs are shipped uncharged and need to be conditioned for full
capacity and longer life.
• To maintain the maximum charge capacity, charge packs should be allowed
to fully discharge prior to charging. It is recommended that you establish a
process where a charge pack is used until it is fully discharged and fully
charged before its next use.
• Avoid using the charge pack in extreme temperatures.
• Do not disassemble the charge pack. There are no user-serviceable parts in
the charge pack.
• Avoid extended overcharging; do not leave the charge pack charging for more
than two weeks.
• Periodically, about every 6 months, repeat the charge pack conditioning.

Cordless Scanning System Quick Start 3
Proper Disposal of the Charge Pack
When the charge pack has reached the end of its useful life, the
charge pack should be disposed of by a qualified recycler or
hazardous materials handler. Do not incinerate the charge pack
or dispose of the charge pack with general waste materials.
Contact Hand Held Products (see page 7) for recycling or
disposal information.
Charging Your Charge Pack
(CLESS/NIMH/S)
Charge the charge pack by following the steps below:
1. Detach the charge pack from the bottom of the scanner.
2. Fully charge the charge pack. Plug the
charge pack directly into any common 120
V AC outlet in North America. If outside
North America, use the custom charge strip
or adaptor.
3. The LED on the bottom of the charge pack
blinks red temporarily as part of the charge
initialization sequence. After initialization,
the LED remains solid red while the charge
pack is charging. The LED shows green
when the charge pack is fully charged and
ready to use.
Note: Recharge Time: 6 hours at any voltage at
20°C (68°F.)
4. After the charge pack is fully charged, attach
it to the cordless scanner by pressing the pack firmly (align the prongs on
the pack with the mating receptacles) in the base of the scanner until the
release buttons click, holding the pack firmly in place. (
When you attach a
charged charge pack to the cordless scanner, you will hear a single beep .)
5. If you have not set up your Cordless System, refer to “Setting Up and
Connecting the Cordless System” section in the System Manual for
instructions.
When the charge pack needs recharging, the yellow LED on top of the scanner
pulses in short, continuous blinks when the trigger is pulled. If the LED stops
flashing when the temperature lowers or you do not use the charge pack for
some time, you still need to charge the charge pack.

Conditioning the Charge Pack
• Charge packs are shipped uncharged and need to be conditioned for full
capacity and longer life.
• Charge the charge pack for 12 hours for the first two times to fully condition
the pack. (Fully discharge in between each initial charge.)
• Fully discharge the charge pack on a periodic basis by leaving the charge
pack attached to the scanner until the scanner no longer operates, about 24
hours. (Make sure all idle modes are disabled for this procedure -- see
Charge Pack Conservation Mode description in the System Manual.)
Discharging the Charge Pack
A full discharge should take less than 10 hours. Full discharge is indicated when
the trigger is pulled and held for at least 10 seconds and the reader does not
illuminate the aiming line or the status LED. Circuitry in the reader prevents an
over-discharge.
IMAGETEAM 3870/SCANTEAM 5770
The charge packs naturally discharge through normal use of the reader.
Alternately, they may be discharged without user interaction by following these
steps:
1. Disassociate the reader from the base unit by scanning the Remove Scan-
ner/Disassociate bar code (found below).
2. Scan the Battery Discharge Mode bar code (found below) to temporarily
disable the scanner’s power-saving features. The scanner does not
operate normally when in this mode. Do not scan a bar code or the
scanner will exit the Battery Discharge Mode.
3. To resume normal operation, detach and replace the charge pack, then
associate with the base unit by scanning the bar code affixed to the base.
Remove Scanner/Disassociate
Battery Discharge Mode

Cordless Scanning System Quick Start 5
IMAGETEAM 3875
You may automatically discharge the IT3875 charge pack by scanning the
following bar code. The scanner remains operational during the discharge;
however the status LED flashes like a “heartbeat.”
Associating the Cordless Scanner to a Base
Important: Make sure the cordless scanner’s charge pack has been fully
charged. See page 3 for charging instructions.
Using the cordless scanner, scan the Association Bar Code (the bar code label
on the top of the base) to link that scanner to the base.
Two quick beeps followed by clicking, then a single beep indicates a “good”
association. The scanner is in communication with the base. If the scanner
clicks for 30 seconds and signals an error (triple beep), it has not associated with
the base.
Note: If the charge pack is removed from the scanner and replaced after
association, the scanner automatically reassociates to the base if the
base has power. In this case, the scanner beeps when a charged charge
pack is installed, then beeps a second time after full association, typically
five to ten seconds later.
Note: A scanner always defaults to work group 0 after scanning a base I.D. bar
code.
Sample codes have been included in the back of this Quick Start Guide. Scan a
bar code to make sure that your scanner is working correctly after you have
charged the charge pack and associated the scanner with a base.

IMAGETEAM 3875 Scanner Features
The IMAGETEAM 3875 includes a keypad and display. In addition to having all
of the functionality of the other cordless scanners offered by Hand Held Products,
the IT3875 allows you to key in data and run scripts that are shipped with the
scanner. Two PC tools also are available to help generate custom applications:
IQ App Loader™ or IQ App Designer™. (IT3875XXX-X2-1 and ST2070-5 only)
You may use IQ App Designer to build custom applications with minimal
programming experience.
One of the factory installed scripts shows the history of the past ten scans on the
display. After you scan a bar code and the information is successfully
communicated to the base, the bar code information appears on the top of the
display. Data from the most recent scan appears at the top of the display while
older data moves down one line at a time. The arrow keys may be used to scroll
up and down through the scan history. Once a line is selected, it is highlighted.
You may also run a script that allows you to enter a part number and quantity.
The part number and quantity prompts can be displayed in six languages.
You may enter alphanumeric characters. The most recently scanned message is
stored in its entirety, up to 2710 characters. Older messages are truncated after
63 characters.
The arrow keys can be used to control vertical line scrolling. Use the Function
(FN) key with the up and down arrows to control horizontal character scrolling. If
the selected line is too wide to fit on the display, an arrow appears at the edge of
the display indicating additional characters. To scroll horizontally toward the end
of the line, press FN and then the UP arrow. To scroll horizontally toward the
beginning of the line, press FN and then the DOWN arrow. (Press and release
FN, and then press the arrow key. Pressing and holding the arrow key causes
horizontal scrolling to repeat.)
You may also program up to eleven macro strings to save a sequence of keypad
strokes. In addition you can control the contrast of the display, turn the backlight
on and off, display indicators of the strength of the battery and the radio contact
with the base, change the font size used when running script applications, and
display the System Setup menu. The System Setup menu lets you run factory
scripts, determine to which work group a scanner is associated, display the
scanner ID, and determine scanner software revision information.
