Quick Reference
Introduction
The CRD 1500 Modem/Charging Cradle contains an internal
MCDA modem card that enables the SPT1500 or SPT1550
terminal to exchange data with other modem-equipped systems
through analog telephone lines.The modem checks to ensure the
line is not being used before going on-line.
A Hot Sync button on the front of the cradle lets you synchronize
information on your terminal with a desktop PC. It also provides
charging capability for terminals equipped with a rechargeable
battery pack.
To use themodem, follow the cradle installation instructions in this
guide, insert your terminal in the cradle, then follow the
instructions provided with your terminal's application software.
For more information about the SPT 1500 or SPT 1550 terminal,
refer to the terminal’s Quick Reference Guide or Product
Reference Guide.
Before Setting Up
Each cradle is shipped with its specific certification and regulatory
labels. Using the wrong cradle version may cause unreliable
operation, damage to your modem, or damage to the telephone
network which may lead to prosecution.
Confirmthat you have thecorrect TelecomApproval Label applied
to your cradle as required for your region.

Setting Up the Cradle
The cradle may be desk or wall-mounted. To power the cradle,
plug the power connector into the back of the cradle and the other
end to the wall outlet.
Note: Use only a Symbol-approved power supply, output
rated 8 VDC and minimum 700mA. The power supply
is certified to EN60950 with SELV outputs.
Hinweis: Benutzen Sie nur eine Symbol Technologies
genehmigt Stromversorgung in den Ausgabe: 8 VDC
und minimum 700mA. Die Stromversorgung ist
bescheinigt nach EN60950 mit SELV Ausgaben.
Installing Rechargeable Batteries
To replace the dry cell batteries in the SPT 1500 terminal with the
rechargeable battery pack:
1. Remove battery cover on rear of
terminal.
2. Pull the tether up to release the
two dry cell batteries.
3. Insert rechargeable battery pack,
making sure the tether is in place
underneath. Be sure the battery
pack is inserted in the proper ori-
entation, as shown.
4. Install new battery door (two
square holes).

Quick Reference
Charging the SPT 1500 Battery Pack
To charge the NiMH battery pack in the terminal:
1. Ensure the cradle is powered on.
2. Insert the terminal in the cradle.
The Terminal Charge LED turns red to indicate charging. The
terminal’s batteryis fullycharged inno morethan threehours.The
Terminal Charge LED turns green when the battery is fully
charged.
Note: Frequent insertion and removal of the terminal in the
cradle may decrease battery life.
If thebattery in the terminal islow, the Terminal Charge
LED may flicker or turn yellow during a HotSync oper-
ation. The LED returns to red when the operation is
complete.
Connecting to the Telephone Network
Your cradle supports direct 2-wire connection to the PSTN, and
indirect connection via compatible extensions ona PABX system.
Do not connect to digital lines.
Use a compliant telephone lead with RJ11 connector (line on
middle pair) to connect to the cradle, terminated with a wired local
Terminal Charge LED

CRD 1500 Modem/
Charging Cradle
telecom connector compatible with the telephone network. This
cable is available from your local supplier. Alternatively, compliant
RJ11-to-RJ11 cables may be used with a range of adapters for
certain regions, e.g., Europe.
Caution: To reduce risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger
telecommunication line cord.
Insert the telephone lead to one of the RJ11 ports on the back of
the cradle (the second port can be used to connect parallel
telephoneequipment). Insertthe other end to the telecom network
(using an appropriate adapter if required for your country).
Country Settings
To ensure your modem operates properly and in accordance with
local telecom regulations, select the correct settings for your
telephone network. How settings are selected varies according to
the operating system and applications used. See your terminal’s
manual and any appropriate software manuals for more
information.
Modem settings can typically be found under Connection
Preferences(or Modem Preferences on older operating systems).
If you are unable to find these settings, the application on your
terminal is probably selecting the settings automatically. See the
manuals or supplier for confirmation.
To select a country, add +GCI=xxZ (where xx is the country code
defined in the following table) to the default string (e.g., AT&FX4)
so it reads (in this example): AT&FX4+GCI=xxZ
If no default string is available, enter the string AT+GCI=xxZ.

AT Commands
AT commands may be used by more experienced users. The
modem confirms that the telephone line is not being used before
making a call. If the line is in use, the modem responds “NO
DIALTONE” (or equivalent numeric response, depending on the
setting). The application may retry later. To disable this feature,
see the S13 command in the table.
