Associating the Scanner to the MicroBar

9745 Base Station

Before you start scanning, you must associate your scanner to the

MicroBar 9745 Base Station that the scanner will be sending data to.

The scanner can only communicate with one base at a time, but the base

can communicate with more than one scanner. Any parameters, such as

preambles or postambles, loaded onto the base will be loaded onto the

scanners associated to it.

To associate the scanner to the base

1. Connect the base to your network. For help, see the Sabre 1552

Scanner and MicroBar 9745 Base Station System Manual (Part No.

070086).

2. Install the battery pack in the scanner. The scanner sounds a single

beep. For help installing the battery pack, see the instruction sheet

that came with your battery pack.

3. Scan the bar code on top of the base. The scanner will sound two

beeps, clicks, and one beep.
