  2. Method 2 (Direct USB Connection): Connect the USB cable directly to the scanner's charging port and then to a power source.

The charging base can be assembled in two configurations: fixed on a table or fixed on a wall. This provides flexibility for your workspace setup.

  • Fixed on the table: Attach the stand to the base as shown in the manual, allowing the scanner to rest securely on a flat surface.
  • Fixed on the wall: The base has hanging holes on the back. Assemble the stand to allow the base to be mounted on a wall, providing a convenient hanging spot for the scanner.
