A data reading system for predicting the removal of a data reader from a charging base unit based on the approach of a user's hand. The data reading system includes a data reader with a power supply, a base unit configured to receive the data reader and to charge the power supply of the data reader responsive to the data reader being coupled to the base unit, a sensor configured to detect the approach of a user's hand, and a processor in operable communication with the sensor and the data reader or the base unit. The processor is configured to apply an appropriate action, such as adjust an amount of current used to charge the power supply of the data reader in the base unit responsive to the sensor detecting the approach of the user's hand.

Removal prediction of a data reader from a charging base unit

Data transfer devices as well as methods of interfacing, configuring, and using the same are disclosed. Data transfer devices described herein allow a proper communication interface to be mounted on an input device, e.g., a scanner, connected to the data transfer device, enabling communication between the input device and a host device. The data transfer devices allow the input device to be configured for communication with the host device based on a particular type of connection, e.g., a particular hardware attachment that utilizes a particular communication interface. The data transfer device therefore enables 'plug-and-play' connectivity between an input device and a host device that removes the amount of user-configuration or user-modification that is required to establish a connection or have the input device, e.g., scanner, mount a proper interface that is compatible with the data transfer device.
