USING THE BC-80X0 RADIO CRADLE
The BC-80X0 cradle, paired with one or more Powerscan™ M8300 readers,
builds a Cordless Reading System for the collection, decoding and transmission
of barcoded data.
It can be connected to a Host PC through an RS-232, USB, Wedge or Pen
cable and is suited for single-cradle point-to-point layouts. It can also be
connected to a C-BOX and therefore integrated into a fixed scanner application.
The BC-8060 models also allow multi-cradle layouts through an RS-485
Network. For this network connection refer to the Powerscan™ D8330/M8300
Reference Manual.
The label on the cradle contains LED indicators and a scan finder button.
When the button is pressed, the cradle transmits a “broadcast” message. All
properly configured scanners (Radio RX Timeout set to keep the radio “awake”)
that are linked to that base (through a bind or a join sequence) and within radio
range coverage will emit a beep sequence once every 2 seconds for 30
seconds. This functionality is useful to:
- verify which scanners are linked to a certain base station
- detect a scanner forgotten somewhere
The LEDs signal the BC-80X0 status, as described in the following table:
LED
STATUS
Aux
Yellow On = BC-80X0 is powered through an external power supply.
Yellow Blinking = BC-80X0 transmission occurs over the Host port.
Host
Yellow On = BC-80X0 is powered by the Host.
Yellow Blinking = BC-80X0 transmission occurs over the Host port.
Reader
Green On = the reader battery is completely charged.
Red On = the reader battery is charging.
Orange Blinking = reader battery fault – replace battery.
Red / Green Alternatively Blinking = charging error - see Ref. Manual
Spare*
Green On = the spare battery is completely charged.
Red On = the spare battery is charging.
Orange Blinking = spare battery fault – replace battery.
Red / Green Alternatively Blinking = charging error - see Ref. Manual
* This LED refers to the accessory SBS-8000 Spare Battery Slot when mounted to the BC-8060. Not
available for BC-8010 models.

APPLYING RAPID POINT-TO-POINT CONFIGURATION
LABEL (OPTIONAL)
A pre-printed barcode label is included in the
package for rapid configuration of point-to-
point applications. If you wish to use this
method, apply this label to the seat provided
on the BC-80X0 cradle as shown in the
figure. See the Powerscan™ M8300 Quick
Reference Manual for the configuration
procedure.
SYSTEM CONNECTIONS
Connections should always be made with power off!
CAUTION
The BC-80X0 cradle provides two interface connectors and a power supply
connector as shown in the figure on the next page:
The RS-485 Network connection is available only on BC-8060 models. For
details about this type of connection, refer to the Powerscan™ D8330/M8300
Reference Manual.
To connect the BC-80X0 cradle to the Host through the multi-interface
connector, use the cable corresponding to the desired interface type.

CONNECTING AND DISCONNECTING THE BC-80X0
INTERFACE CABLE
The BC-80X0 can be connected to a Host by means of an RS-232, USB, Wedge
or Pen cable, which must be simply plugged into the Host connector, visible on
the front panel of the cradle.
To disconnect the cable, insert a paper clip or other similar object into the hole
corresponding to the Host connector on the body of the cradle. Push down on the

BC-80X0 CONFIGURATION
The BC-80X0 configuration can be performed in three ways: by using the
Datalogic Aladdin™ software configuration program, by sending configuration
strings from the Host PC via the RS-232 or USB-COM interface or by reading
configuration barcodes with the Powerscan™ M reader.
DATALOGIC ALADDIN™
Datalogic Aladdin™ is a multi-platform utility program providing a quick and
user-friendly configuration method via the RS-232/USB-COM interface.
It also allows upgrading the software of the connected device (see the Datalogic
Aladdin™ Help On-Line for more details).
SERIAL CONFIGURATION
By connecting the BC-80X0 to a PC through an RS-232 or USB-COM interface
cable it is possible to send configuration strings from the PC to BC-80X0.
CONFIGURATION BARCODES
Once you have performed system connection and Powerscan™ M reader
configuration, you can configure the BC-80X0 cradle by reading configuration
barcodes. Apply power to the BC-80X0.
For Powerscan™ M configuration, refer to the “Powerscan™ M8300 Quick
Reference”.
To configure the BC-80X0 using the Powerscan™ M reader (the one paired to the
cradle with the Bind command), follow the procedure according to the interface
selected.
