An improperly mounted cradle may result in one or more of the following: operator injury, operator visibility obstruction, operator distraction and/or poor ease of egress for the operator.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Wiring Guidelines 7.11.2 W iring Guidelines Before installing the cables between the cradle and other devices, consider the following: • • • • • • 7.11.3 Ensure that drilling holes will not damage the vehicle or its wiring. Protect cable runs from pinching, overheating and physical damage. Use grommets to protect cables that pass through metal.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Powered Cradle Installation In High Voltage Vehicles 7.11.5 Powered Cradle Installation In High Voltage Vehicles Warning: Voltages exceeding 60VDC are considered hazardous. For powered cradle installations on vehicles with batteries above this voltage, ensure the powered cradle power connector is mounted in a dry location on the vehicle, or that the connector is insulated with an appropriate waterproof material after installation.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Powered Cradle Installation 7.11.6 Powered Cradle Installation The powered cradle option is designed to allow the 7530 to be powered by a vehicle battery. The battery installed in the 7530 is also recharged by the vehicle battery. This option accepts DC power sources over the range 12V to 80V. The 7530 picker cradle can be ordered with the powered cradle option installed, or it can be retrofitted later at an authorized Psion Teklogix service depot.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories Wiring Vehicle Power To The Cradle 7.11.6.1 Wiring Vehicle Power To The Cradle A 1.8 meter (6 foot) extension power cable (PN 13985) is supplied with your power cradle. This cable should be wired to a filtered, fused (maximum 10A) accessory supply on the vehicle. The power cradle draws no more than 8A (less if the accessory supply is greater than 12V). Any additional wiring, connectors or disconnects used should be rated for at least 10A.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & Accessories The Port Replicator 7.11.7 The Port Replicator The port replicator is an optional accessory that allows tethered devices (e.g., scanners) as well as mounted peripherals (e.g., bar code printers or weigh scales) to be attached to the picker cradle. The replicator can be used with or without the cradle power option. The functionality of the 7535 tether port is duplicated on the port replicator.
