2. Setting the Address of the Base/Charger Unit

You need to set the address of the base/charger unit
(Catalog No. 2755-HCG-B) in order to pair the scanner with the
base. Pairing allows communication to occur between these two
units. Be aware of the following when pairing the scanner to the
base/charger unit.

There is a 1-to-1 pairing of guns and bases. (You cannot have
multiple guns paired to one base or one gun paired to multiple
bases.)

You can have 128 gun/base pairs within the same RF
communication range.

Communication between the gun and the base/charger unit may
be affected by environmental conditions such as the amount of
metal located near the gun and base/charger unit.

You need to pair a gun to a base/charger unit after replacing the
battery in the gun.

The base/charger must be assigned an unique address between 00
and 7F.

To set the address:

1. Locate the panel on the underside of the base/charger unit.
