Chapter 1 – Getting Started
The flexpoint™ HS2R9 from JADAK™ is a wireless Bluetooth BLE handheld
scanner capable of decoding all major 1d and 2d barcode varieties as well as
reading a broad variety of HF RFID tags. The HS2R9 consists of a highly
configurable area imaging camera, decoding engine, and an HF RFID
transceiver that will communicate via a Bluetooth BLE 4.1 interface.
With a small ergonomic shape, the HS2R9 can be used in a wide variety of
applications, but is especially designed for Healthcare applications and
environments. The HS2R9 has a sealed housing that protects it from day to day
debris and spills and is built with medical grade plastics that are compatible with
popular medical cleansers and disinfectants.
About This Manual
This User’s Guide provides installation and programming instructions for the
flexpoint HS2R9. Product specifications, dimensions, warranty, and customer
support information are also included. JADAK’s bar code imagers are factory
programmed for the most common terminal and communications settings. If you
need to change these settings, programming is accomplished by scanning the
bar codes in this guide. An asterisk (*) next to an option indicates the default
setting.

About the Battery
Power is supplied to the HS2R9 imager by a rechargeable battery located in the
body of the imager. Each HS2R9 imager is shipped with a Lithium Ion battery
already installed. See “HS2R9 Product Specifications” on page 8-1.
Charging Information
The HS2R9 imager is designed to recharge the battery whenever the imager is in
the base. Be sure that the base is connected to an appropriate power supply.
Battery Recommendations
Batteries are shipped approximately 30% to 60% charged and should be
fully charged for maximum charge capacity.
The battery is a lithium ion cell and can be used without a full charge, and
can also be charged without fully discharging, without impacting the
battery life. There is no need to perform any charge/discharge conditioning
on this type of battery.
Do not disassemble the battery. There are no user-serviceable parts in the
battery.
Keep the base connected to power when the host is not in use.
Replace a defective battery immediately since it could damage the imager.
Do not short-circuit a battery or throw it into a fire. It can explode and
cause severe personal injury.

The Lithium Ion battery in the HS2R9 can be recharged many times. Eventually
it will be unable to hold a charge and be unusable. See Chapter 9, Replacing the
Battery
A new battery at full charge should allow operation for a full 8 hour shift
given a typical use case of scanning 30 times per hour (triggered for 5
seconds per scan).
Recharging a fully discharged battery will take 3-4 hours depending on the
level of use (scanning) while in the base.
If you are not sure if the battery or charger is working properly please see the
troubleshooting section, in Chapter 2.
Proper Disposal of the Battery
When the battery has reached the end of its useful life, the battery should be
disposed of by a qualified recycler or hazardous materials handler. Do not
incinerate the battery or dispose of the battery with general waste materials. You
may send the imager’s battery to JADAK (postage pre-paid). The shipper is
responsible for complying with all federal, state, and local laws and regulations
related to the packing, labeling, manifesting, and shipping of spent batteries.
Since you may find your cost of returning the batteries significant, it may be more
cost-effective to locate a local recycle/disposal company.

Connecting the Base
The base can be plugged into a computer’s USB port.
When the base is connected, place the HS2R9 imager into the base to charge
the battery. The imager’s indicator LEDs flash, alternating between the green and
red LED, to indicate the battery is charging. If only the red LED is flashing, this
indicates the unit is charging but the voltage/charge is too low to allow operation
(presentation mode) and charging simultaneously. Please wait until the HS2R9’s
LED’s alternate between red and green before attempting to use in presentation
mode while in the base.
