Ordering Cables
Before you order a cable, consider where you are mounting the
MicroBar 9745 base station. For clear communication between
the base station and the Sabre 1552 laser scanners, make sure
that you follow the next requirements:
•Leave enough clearance around the base station so that you
can position the antenna so that it is vertical.
•Mount the base station so that nothing, particularly metal
objects, obstructs the signal between the base station and the
scanners.
These requirements will help you determine how long your
cable may be and to what terminal or PC you connect the base
station to.
To order a cable, contact your local Intermec representative. If
you use the base station in an environment where it can get wet,
use an auxiliary cable. Only use the host and power cables in
areas where the base station will not get wet.
The base station can receive power through the following
sources:
•External power supply plugged into the base station.
•External power supply plugged into a Y jack on an RS-232
or extension cable.
•Host power provided through a wedge cable.
•Host power provided through pin 9 of an RS-232 cable.
•Host power provided through the auxiliary port.
Use the next table to determine which cable to order.
Note: Wedge cable extensions should not exceed 15 feet
(5 meters). RS-232 cables can extend to 50 feet (15 meters) and
wand emulation cables can extend to 20 feet (6 meters).
Auxiliary cables were designed mainly for portable applications.
