Introduction
The RS309 is a modular, wearable laser scanner that provides the operator with
unencumbered bar code scanning capability. The RS309 is used with the
WT4070/90 wearable terminal.
The operator wears the RS309 on the back of the hand and uses a
thumb-activated trigger to operate the scanner. An interface cable connects the
RS309 to the wearable terminal. Power for the RS309 is provided by the wearable
terminal.

Installation
The RS309 connects to the wearable terminal and mounts on the back of the
hand using the RS309 Glove.
1. Connect the RS309 trigger cable to the back of the RS309.
2. Connect the RS309 interface cable to the back of the RS309.
3. On the wearable terminal, remove the connector cap covering the cable
connector.
NOTE There are two interface cables available. The standard interface
cable connects the RS309 to a wearable terminal mounted on the
arm. The extended length interface cable connect the RS309 to a
wearable terminal mounted on the hip.

4. Connect the other end of the RS309 interface cable to the wearable terminal
cable connector. If the wearable terminal is mounted on the arm, connect the
cable to the cable connector closest to the wrist.
5. Mount the RS309 on the RS309 Glove. Refer to the RS309 Glove Installation
Guide for information on mounting the RS309.
6. Slide the trigger strap on the index finger, with the button positioned next to the
thumb, and adjust the strap.
7. Warm boot the wearable terminal.

Using the Scanner
To scan bar codes:
1. Turn on the wearable terminal.
2. Launch a scanning application.
3. Press the scan trigger and aim the RS309 at a bar code. The LED turns red to
indicate the RS309 is on.
4. Adjust the aim so that the thin, red laser beam covers the entire length of the
bar code.
5. If the decode is successful the LED turns green. The terminal beeps if
programed accordingly.
Scanning Tips
• For larger bar codes, hold the RS309 farther away from the bar code.
• For bar codes with bars that are closer together, hold the RS309 closer to the
bar code.
• The optimal scanning distance varies with bar code density, but 10 to 25 cm (4
to 10 inches) generally works. Practice to determine what distances to work
within.
• Position the scanner at an angle to the bar code. If the scanner is
perpendicular to the bar code being scanned, light can bounce back into the
scanner’s exit window and prevent a successful decode.

RS309 Freezer Version
The RS309 Freezer version provides unencumbered bar code scanning capability
in cold environments. Two desiccant packs must be inserted inside the scanner to
prevent condensation in the exit window.
These packs require replacement; how frequently depends on your environment.
Additional packs can be ordered from Motorola.
Inserting the Desiccant Packs
To insert or replace the desiccant packs:
1. Insert a coin into the slit on the round access cover, and turn the coin
counter-clockwise 45°.
2. Remove the cover.
3. If there are existing desiccant packs inside, carefully remove them and discard
properly.
4. Remove the new desiccant packs from the sealed plastic bag.
5. Insert the new packs into the scanner.
NOTE The RS309 Freezer version is shipped with desiccant packs in a
sealed plastic bag. Be sure to insert the packs provided before using
the scanner.

6. To replace the access cover, align the knobs on the cover with the notches
inside the desiccant well, and turn the cover clockwise 45° using the coin.
Replacing the Protective Cap
To replace the protective cap that covers the RS309:
1. Remove all cables connected to the RS309 and remove the RS309 from any
mounting equipment.
2. Push up on the recesses between the protective cap and the scanner (located
underneath the exit window) until the tabs on the scanner pop out.
3. Lift the protective cap off the RS309.
4. Slide the RS309 into the back of the new protective cap so the connectors
appear through the back opening of the protective cap.
5. Push the front of the RS309 into the protective cap until it snaps into place.
