CHAPTER 2 –
CONNECT THE SF61B
•
Double-click the Compose BT address command to enter the host's
Bluetooth Device Address (BDA) you noted previously (see above), and click
OK to confirm.
A Bluetooth association barcode is created containing the BDA of your
»
host computer.
5.
Read the Bluetooth connection barcode. You may be able to read it on the screen
in EasySet; if not you can print it out as a label and perhaps stick it on your host
device where it is easy to read (suggestion).
•
The blue Honeywell Ready-to-Work indicator blinks slowly for 5 minutes to
indicate it is waiting to connect (default scanner behavior).
•
If a pairing code or validation is requested, click Enter the device's pairing
code (or the equivalent command) and enter the scanner's pairing code (the
default Honeywell Bluetooth pairing code is "0000").
6.
Start the host application you want to connect to and open the Incoming COM
port you noted previously.
•
When the scanner connects to your host application, it emits a series of
beeps from low to high, and the blue Honeywell Ready-to-Work indicator
turns solid blue (default scanner behavior).
TEST YOUR SPP INCOMING CONNECTION WITH THE HOST
Read the following test code and check that it is correctly displayed by the host
application to make sure that your connection is working correctly:
Code 39 Test Barcode
*123456*
TO DISCONNECT FROM THE HOST
Use the Bluetooth disconnect procedure specific to your host application to close the
Incoming COM port.
When the scanner disconnects from the host PC, it emits a "disconnect successful"
beep sequence (series of beeps from high to low), and the blue Honeywell Ready-to-
Work indicator blinks slowly for 5 minutes to indicate it is waiting to connect (default
scanner behavior).
When you open the Incoming COM port again, if the scanner is switched on it will
reconnect to the host application.
Note: Using the Bluetooth Device Disconnect barcode to disconnect
your scanner will disconnect it permanently – it will not go into the
"waiting to connect" state (no blinking blue light) and you will have to read
the hosts' association barcode label again to re-establish the connection.
