computer cups or two battery cups.
DX4 Quad Dock: DX4 is also available with other combinations of computer

You can connect the DX1 to a desktop PC through its USB port.

About the DX1 USB Ports
Use the USB client port (requires a Micro-USB connector) to connect
the DX1 to your desktop PC. The USB host port is intended for use
with the Ethernet or Modem Adapter accessories. Other USB devices
may not be supported.
If you are using the DX1 with the CS40 computer:
•use USB cables of 2 m (6 ft) or shorter.
•multiple concurrent USB connections are not supported.
Connections to the USB client port receive priority over
connections to the USB host port.
For more information on connecting USB devices to your Intermec
computer, see the computer user’s manual.
Installing the Optional Retaining Clip
For the DX1 and DX2, you can use the optional retaining clip to
secure the power supply cord to the dock as shown in the next
illustration.
