Setting up Bluetooth Connections
3.1.3 AUTHENTICATION
For security concerns, it is suggested that you enable authentication and specify a unique
PIN code, also known as the passkey used to pair two Bluetooth devices. The scanner
itself allows up to 16 characters for a PIN code. This means you will have to enter exactly
the same string for your computer or PDA to connect to the scanner. If the passkey is
incorrect, any connection attempt will be turned down by the scanner. When any changes
are made to authentication and PIN code on the scanner side, you will have to remove
the scanner from the paired device list (called unpairing) and go through the whole
process to re-establish the connection.
Entering PIN code…
By default, the Bluetooth PIN code is set to “0000”. Maximum 16 characters are allowed.
1. Read one of the labels above to specify the PIN code, in decimal or hexadecimal.
2. Read the “Decimal Value” label on page 141 or the “Hexadecimal Value” label on page 142 for
the desired digits or character string.
3. Read the “Validate” label to complete this setting.
Note: When using Bluetooth HID, some driver of Bluetooth dongle may not support
pre-defined PIN code for authentication. In this case, make sure you disable
authentication before pairing. The host PIN code will be displayed on the computer
screen. Have the scanner read the setup barcode “Enter PIN Code in Decimal” or
“Enter PIN Code in Hexadecimal” to input the matching PIN code quickly.
