6. Go to the ITrack LX app and after a few seconds you should hear a connection beep from the scanner. Scanning in the ITrack LX app with the DS2278 should now work.

Charging the Scanner

  • The charging circuit on the scanner is capable of using as much current as possible based on the power source
  • Preferred Method: use a BC1.2 Compliant Micro USB adapter to a wall outlet (higher current charging capability above 900 mA)
