CHAPTER 4 –
TROUBLESHOOT AND MAINTAIN THE SF61B
USE EASYSET AND WINFLASH TO UPGRADE
YOUR SF61B FIRMWARE
TO UPGRADE YOUR SCANNER'S FIRMWARE
1.
Connect the SF61B to the host in SPP outgoing (host-initiated) connection – see
"To connect in SPP device profile – outgoing connection" on page
2.
Start the latest version of EasySet and select the SF61B product (Product >
Select > Handheld scanners) if it is not already selected.
3.
From the Tools menu, select Upgrade product firmware to start WinFlash.
If WinFlash is not already installed you will be asked to install it – click Yes and
•
follow the installation instructions.
•
If you are connected to EasySet for online setup, a message will ask if you
want to quit online setup mode and start WinFlash.exe. Click Yes to continue,
the scanner disconnects (the blue Honeywell Ready-to-Work indicator goes
off), and then restarts (2 beeps and vibrate alert by default).
4.
Select your scanner model and click OK.
5.
Click Browse to find the correct .bin firmware upgrade file you downloaded for
your product model and click Next.

6.
Scan the Firmware upgrade barcode
that appears on the screen – print out
and read the code on this page if you
can't read it on the screen.
22.
The scanner emits two beeps and
two green flashes to indicate a good
configuration barcode read and then
blinks with a regular red blink.
7.
Click OK to continue.
If you cannot re-pair successfully after
interrupting the software upgrade (you
cannot see the Outgoing and Incoming
virtual COM ports in your host PC's
Bluetooth settings), try the following
workaround:
•
Remove your scanner from your
host's device list if present.
•
Pair and connect your scanner
using the HID profile.
•
Disconnect your scanner from
this HID connection (your
scanner should no longer be
present in the host's device list).
User's Guide | SF61 Cordless Scanner
Note: If you do not proceed
with the firmware upgrade
procedure within 5 minutes,
the scanner performs a
restart (emits two beeps and
vibrates). Close WinFlash
and close EasySet and
repeat the entire procedure
including removing your
SF61B from the host's list
of Bluetooth devices and re-
pairing with the host system.
