removable data storage media, or the restoration or reinstallation of any software programs or data other than the software,
if any, installed by Seller during manufacture of the Product.

as provided in Section C above, the aforementioned provisions do not extend the original warranty period of any Product that
had either been repaired or replaced by Seller.

with, altered or modified, except by Seller’s authorized service personnel; (ii) in which the defects or damage to the Product
result from normal wear and tear, misuse, negligence, improper storage, water or other liquids, battery leakage, use of parts
or accessories not approved or supplied by Symbol, or failure to perform operator handling and scheduled maintenance
instructions supplied by Seller; (iii) which has been subjected to unusual physical or electrical stress, abuse, or accident, or
forces or exposure beyond normal use within the specified operational and environmental parameters set forth in the
applicable Product specification; nor shall the above warranty provisions apply to any expendable or consumable items, such
as batteries, supplied with the Product.

WARRANTIES ON PRODUCTS FURNISHED HEREUNDER INCLUDING ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND

Introduction
The cordless scanner cradle acts as a stand, host communication interface, and charger for the
LS 3478 cordless scanner. It can sit on a desktop or be mounted on a wall.
There are two configurations of the cradle:
• STB3478-C0007WW: charging cradle with radio for desk/wall mounting
• STB3408-C0007: charging cradle only for desk/wall mounting.
The STB3478 cradle receives data from the scanner via a Bluetooth radio, and sends that data
to the host through an attached cable. The cradle also charges the scanner’s internal battery
pack when the scanner is inserted. The scanner can be charged from an external power supply
or using a USB host cable.
This document provides basic instructions on setting up and using the cradle. Unless otherwise
noted, “cradle” refers to both configurations of the cradle. Any discussion of transmission of
information refers specifically to the STB3478 cradle.
Equipment Supplied
The cradle package includes:
• Cradle
• Four rubber feet (for desk mounting).
Accessories
The following equipment may be needed:
• Three 1.5" #8 Philips head screws (for wall mounting, if applicable, not available from
Symbol)
• Power supply for desk/wall mounting configuration (Symbol p/n 50-14000-101).
Save the shipping container for storing or shipping. Inspect all equipment for damage. If
anything is damaged or missing, call an authorized Customer Support Representative
immediately.
