4. Setup Bluetooth
Communication
Before the operation, Bluetooth communication must
be setup between the scanner and cradle.
4.1 Pairing
Each scanner has to be linked or paired to a cradle
by scanning the unique Bluetooth MAC address
code located on the bottom of cradle. The pairing
between scanner and cradle is one to one that is one
scanner can be paired to a cradle only.
4.2 Setup SPP Master Mode
Please follow the steps to setup the communication
between the scanner and cradle.
1) The scanner must scan “SPP Master Mode”
barcode to set the scanner in master mode.
2) Scan the Bluetooth MAC address code located
on the bottom of the cradle.
3) When the Bluetooth MAC address code was
successfully scanned, scanner will sound 3
beeps with Green led.
4) Wait approximately five seconds for completing
the connection process with up-tone.
5) If successful, blue LED of scanner will slow flash
and the cradle will be continued on.
