OM-DRAGON™  1   USING OM-DRAGON™ RADIO CRADLE  The OM-DRAGON™ cradle, paired with one or more DRAGON™ M series laser guns, builds a Cordless Reading System for the collection, decoding and transmission of barcoded data.  It can be connected to a Host PC through an RS232, Wedge or Pen cable and is suited for both single-cradle and multi-cradle layouts.  It can also be connected to a C-Box and therefore integrated into a fixed scanner application.    To setup your OM-DRAGON™ cradle you must:  1.  Physically install the cradle.  2.  Make all system connections.  3.  Configure the OM-DRAGON™ cradle.
DATALOGIC 2   INSTALLATION  The OM-DRAGON™ can be mounted for portable or fixed desktop usage, or it can be fixed to a wall. In all cases, the mounting base must be used.  The OM-DRAGON™ package contains the following:  OM-DRAGON™ 3 screws This Quick Reference Manual  3 threaded dowels 2 adhesive strips  1 alignment plate 4 rubber feet  1 Antenna     Figure 1 - OM-DRAGON™ Mounting Base bottom view   PORTABLE DESKTOP USE  For desktop use, the OM-DRAGON™ is already correctly positioned on the base.  1.  Referring to Figure 1, carefully clean the rubber feet seat of the base to remove any impurities that could reduce adhesion. 2.  Remove the protective plastic from the rubber feet and stick them onto the bottom surface of the base. 3.  Insert the antenna in the appropriate hole on the body of the cradle and screw it clockwise until tight.
OM-DRAGON™  3   FIXED DESKTOP USE  For fixed desktop installation use the adhesive strips referring to Figure 1.  1.  If you are installing several cradles and you desire to align them, you can use the alignment plate (see Alignment Plate Installation), otherwise continue with step 2. 2.  Carefully clean the adhesive strip seat of the base to remove any impurities that could reduce adhesion. 3.  Remove the protective plastic from one side of the adhesive strips and stick them onto the base surface. 4.  Remove the plastic from the other side of the strips and affix the base to the table. 5.  Insert the antenna in the appropriate hole on the body of the cradle and screw it clockwise until tight.   WALL MOUNTING  Since the OM-DRAGON™ is mounted on its base when delivered, before performing the following operation, unscrew the fixing screw and detach the cradle from the base by holding the base tight and pushing the cradle backwards.     Figure 2- OM-DRAGON™ top view
DATALOGIC 4   For wall mounting, the cradle is positioned as shown in Figure 3:   Figure 3 - OM-DRAGON™ Base  1.  If you are installing several cradles and you desire to align them, you can use the alignment plate (see Alignment Plate Installation), otherwise continue with step 2. 2.  Using the mounting holes on the base as a pattern mark the wall where you desire to mount the OM-DRAGON™. 3.  Drill three appropriate size holes. 4.  Insert the threaded dowels into the holes. 5.  Position the base on the wall and affix it by means of the three screws. 6.  Reattach the cradle body by sliding it along the mounting tabs until aligned. 7.  Fix the cradle to the base by means of the fixing screw. (See Figure 2). 8.  Insert the antenna in the appropriate hole on the body of the cradle and screw it clockwise until tight.   ALIGNMENT PLATE  1.  Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 4, snap the Alignment Plate into the holes provided on the base so that the plate remains extended from the side of the base. 2.  Snap the next base onto the remaining pins of the Alignment Plate.  Figure 4 - Alignment Plate
OM-DRAGON™  5   SYSTEM CONNECTIONS   CAUTION Connections should always be made with power off!  You can connect the OM-DRAGON™ cradle to the Host through the dedicated connector, using the cable corresponding to the desired interface type.   CONNECTING AND DISCONNECTING THE OM-DRAGON™ INTERFACE CABLE  The OM-DRAGON™ can be connected to a Host by means of an RS232, Wedge or Pen cable which must be simply plugged into the Host connector, visible on the rear panel of the cradle.  To disconnect the cable, insert a paper clip or other similar object into the hole corresponding to the Host connector on the body of the cradle. Push down on the clip while unplugging the cable. Refer to the following figure:           Figure 5 – Connecting/Disconnecting the cable.  Multi-standard interface RS232, WEDGE, or PEN Emulation to Host Power
DATALOGIC 6    RS232 CONNECTION        WEDGE CONNECTION        PEN CONNECTION
OM-DRAGON™  7   C-BOX CONNECTION      OM-DRAGON™ CONFIGURATION  The OM-DRAGON™ configuration can be performed in three ways: by using the DL Sm@rtSet software configuration program, by sending configuration strings from the Host PC via the RS232 interface or by reading configuration barcodes with the DRAGON™ M reader.  DL SM@RTSET DL Sm@rtSet is a Windows-based utility program providing a quick and user-friendly configuration method via the RS232 interface. It also allows upgrading the software of the connected device (see the DL Sm@rtSet User's Manual for more details).  SERIAL CONFIGURATION By connecting the OM-DRAGON™ to a PC through an RS232 interface cable it is possible to send configuration strings from the PC to OM-DRAGON™.   CONFIGURATION BARCODES Once you have performed system connection and DRAGON™ M reader configuration, you can configure the OM-DRAGON™ cradle by reading configuration barcodes. Apply power to the OM-DRAGON™. For the DRAGON™ M configuration refer to the “DRAGON™ M Quick Reference”.  To configure the OM-DRAGON™ using the DRAGON™ M reader (the one paired to the cradle with the Bind command), follow the given sequence and the instructions.

NOTE After many recharging cycles NiMh and NiCd batteries may tend to lose their operating autonomy. To limit this effect avoid inserting the DRAGON™ M into the OM-DRAGON™ cradle frequently. This condition can be overcome by inserting the laser reader into the  OM-DRAGON™ cradle and pressing the "battery reconditioning" button (see DRAGON™ M Series Quick Reference Manual).
