POWERSCAN™ BC96XX BASE STATIONS

The BC96XX base station, when paired with one or more PowerScan™ PM96XX readers, builds a Cordless Reading System for the collection, decoding and transmission of bar code data. It can be connected to a Host PC via RS232, USB, USB Type C, or Ethernet, depending on the interchangeable connection module. With the adoption of the Wireless Power Transfer technology, the base station can charge the battery of the gun without contacts, with a performance depending on the power supply type used. The label on the base station has LED indicators and a touch button. Touch the button for 2 seconds and all properly configured and switched on scanners (with battery profile different from Max Autonomy) that are linked to that base station and within the radio range coverage, will emit a beep and blink within 5 seconds. This feature is useful to:

  • verify which scanners are linked to a particular base station;
  • detect a scanner forgotten somewhere.

The LEDs signal the BC96XX status, as explained below.

LED| STATUS|
---|---|---
Green LED| Solid green: the base station is powered.
Blinking: the base station is receiving data|
Lateral Light
Bands| Indicates the state of the battery charge.
Orange slow blinking: battery level is under 50%, the reader is charging.
Green slow blinking: battery level is over 50%, the reader is charging.
Solid Green: the battery of the reader is fully charged.|
Ethernet
(Ethernet
models only)| – BF LED (red/green): network status;
– LINK LED (yellow/green): link activity;
– SF LED (red/green): module status;
– PWR LED (green): power ON (located on the connection module this LED is not visible when installed in the cradle).|

BASE STATION MODELS

Each base station is composed of a cradle which must be connected to a connection module, depending on the interface desired and on the IP (water and dust) protection grade.
The base station and connection module models are listed below.

INSTALLATION

To set up your BC96XX base station you must:

  1. Physically install it.
  2. Make all system connections.
  3. Configure it.

PACKAGE CONTENTS

The base station package contains the following items:

  • BC96XX Base Station (with Desktop Positioning Tab installed)
  • BC96XX Quick Reference Guide (this manual)
  • 1 Mounting plate

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

The base station can be either set on or mounted to a flat surface for desktop usage, or affixed vertically to a wall.
Depending on the model, the appropriate connection module is already installed.

PERMANENT MOUNTING

For either desktop or wall mounting, the base station can be fastened directly to a flat surface using screws (not included).

NOTE: When the base station is mounted on vertical surfaces, permanent mounting is always required.
NOTE: For vertical installation, do not exceed two meters in height.
NOTE: When mounting on drywall, the base station should be screwed to a wall stud or supporting beam for additional support.

DATALOGIC BC96XX Industrial Base Station Charger - Fig

WALL MOUNTING
The base station contains a reversible positioning tab for horizontal or vertical mounting.

Figure 1 – Positioning Tab

DATALOGIC BC96XX Industrial Base Station Charger - Fig

When shipped, the base station has the positioning tab installed in the Desktop position (horizontal). For vertical installation, the positioning tab must be rotated.
Changing the Orientation of the Positioning Tab:

  1. Remove the screw holding the tab in place. Keep the screw for reuse.
    DATALOGIC BC96XX Industrial Base Station Charger - Fig

  2. Carefully lift the tab out.

  3. Rotate the tab until you will see “WALL” tooth, put the rotated tab into place and secure it with the screw.

DATALOGIC BC96XX Industrial Base Station Charger - Fig

PORTABLE DESKTOP MOUNTING

For desktop mounting, if portability of the base station is required, the mounting plate can be used. There are two ways this can be done: (1) base station fast release by first fixing the mounting plate onto a flat surface so the base station can be slid off and on, or (2) connection module fast release by fixing the mounting plate to the connection module and then fixing both of them onto a flat surface so only the cradle can be slid off while the connection module will remain on the desk.

Base Station Fast Release – Mounting the Plate

  1. Affix the mounting plate onto the desired mounting surface using four screws through the holes highlighted in the figure below.
    DATALOGIC BC96XX Industrial Base Station Charger - Fig
9

  2. Remove the adhesive strips protecting the mounting tabs on the base station.

  3. Align the base station with the mounting plate until you see the sphere inside the bigger hole on the left.
    DATALOGIC BC96XX Industrial Base Station Charger - Fig

Connection Module Fast Release – Mounting the Bracket

  1. Remove the protective strips.

  2. Unscrew the connection module from the base station.

  3. Screw the mounting plate to the connection module.

SYSTEM CONNECTIONS

CAUTION: Connections should always be made with power off.
The BC9630 (BC9600 + CM9630 connection module) provides a multi-interface connector for connections to a host and a power supply connector for an external power supply.
To unlock the multi-interface cable, first lift the lever and then extract the cable, as indicated by the label next to the lever.
Figure 2 – BC9630 connection module

DATALOGIC BC96XX Industrial Base Station Charger - Fig

CONFIGURATION

BC9680 Ethernet Models
BC9680 configuration can be performed using the Datalogic Aladdin software configuration program or by reading configuration bar codes with the PowerScan™ PM96XX
reader.
Non-Ethernet Models
The BC963X 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 RS232 or USB-COM interface or by reading configuration bar codes with the PowerScan™ PM96XX reader.
Datalogic Aladdin™
Datalogic Aladdin™ (available for free download from the Datalogic website) is a multi-platform utility program that provides a quick and user-friendly configuration method via the RS232/USB-COM or Ethernet 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 BC963X to a PC through an RS232 or USB-COM interface cable, it is possible to send configuration strings from the PC to the BC963X.
Configuration Bar Codes
Link the base station and the reader using the procedures described in the Power- Scan™ PM96XX Quick Reference. Once the pairing is complete, you can configure the base station by reading the configuration bar codes in the PM96XX Quick Reference Guide or PowerScan 9600 Family Product Reference Guide.
