Charging Stand and Charging Dock
Designed for practicality, the Charging Stand and the Charging Dock both provide stationary means for charging Socket Mobile’s barcode scanners or nearfield reader/writer, while allowing the Socket Mobile scanner or reader to remain fully functional. Continuing to scan barcodes or read RFID tags, the stand and dock keep the device fixed in place, while customers wave barcodes or tags below the scanner or reader.
Carla is walking the floor of her clothing store. Customers have been flooding in all day, asking for information on coming sales and new styles. As Carla scans the tag of a designer shirt for a customer, she sees the red battery light blinking, warning her of low power. Carla must have forgotten to charge her scanner last night. After finishing up with this last customer, she proceeds to set up her scanner in the Charging Stand at the counter. Set to Auto Scan mode, the scanner will now read any barcode in the store that a customer swipes underneath its beam.
