Setting up a new Mobile Scanner for TH6 Mobile

Updated by Cheryl Wallace

Ruggedized handheld computers with integrated laser scanners are ergonomically designed and tested to withstand tough environmental conditions.

Mobile scanners are automatically configured to read barcodes and QR codes out-of-the-box. No additional steps are required to enable this.
When you receive the shipment containing your mobile scanner, follow these steps to ensure success:
  1. Inspect the box. If there are any damage, contact your account manager immediately.
  2. Remove the mobile device from the box.
    1. Follow the quick start instructions for inserting the battery and charging the device before first use.
    2. Save the shipping box and all documentation in a safe place where you will be able to find it. This is vital if you need to return the device under warranty.
  3. Connect to WIFI. If no WIFI is available in your area, you will need to obtain a SIM card for wireless connectivity.
  4. Install ToolHound 6 Mobile. You will be prompted to configure the Settings as part of the installation. Mobile scanners run the Android operating system. Download the application from either the Google Play Store or our download link.

Congratulations! You can now log in to ToolHound 6 Mobile.
