CHAPTER 8 CRADLE INSTALLATION
Introduction
A system is comprised of a family of hardware devices interconnected through a WLAN radio backbone to the
retail establishment’s server(s). The hardware devices are the MC18 mobile computers, single-slot or three
slot cradles, power supplies and cables. A dispenser typically refers to a piece of furniture which has mounted
to it the cradles, their power supplies, and cables.
Customers (retail establishments) design their own dispensers to meet their particular floor space and display
requirements. The information in this chapter should help a customer to design a dispenser and to understand
the installation requirements.
