LS 3070 Product Reference Guide: Setup
At that time, through the scanner’s contact shoe, there is an exchange of
information (addressing, RF channels, etc.) between the scanner and the
base/charger’s cradle. This occurs in less than a second.
After that exchange, the scanner and base/charger are paired. Successful
pairing is indicated by a
warble
beep; failure, or unsuccessful link, is
indicated by a
Lo Lo Lo Lo
beep.
Setting Transmission Frequency
Each scanner/base pair communicates on one of a number of channel
frequencies, which varies by country. In most countries, there are 80 available
channels (numbered 2 through 81); in France, there are only 9 channeles
(numbered 46 through 54).
The initial transmission frequency is determined by the base’s unique address,
so neighboring LS 3070 systems operate on different channels. This allows
them to transmit simultaneously without interfering with each other. Channel
separation is optimal between sequential base addresses, so base units closest
to each other should be assigned sequential base addresses if possible. (Note
that data is transmitted between a scanner and base so quickly that a number
of different LS 3070 systems can normally operate on the same channel without
noticeable interference.)
