Using your Zapper Tornado BT in HID Mode
1.
Ensure the battery is fully charged. Power on the scanner within radio range and
ensure the status indicator of scanner gives alternating red and green blinks (in
“Uninstall” state). If the scanner is not in uninstall state, please scan the “Uninstall”
command first. Then scan the “HID Mode” command, and the scanner’s link
indicator will give three blue blinks every 2.5 seconds.

2.
Begin the Bluetooth Discovery process to find all available Bluetooth devices
available to your remote host. You will see ‘’FxxxBT-xxxx’’ is shown in the list if the
scanner is successfully discovered.
3.
Double click the “FxxxBT-xxxx” in the discovered Bluetooth device list. If a PIN Code
or Passkey is requested, please enter “00000000” (without the quotes). You will
see “Keyboard on FxxxBT-xxxx”, and you can then double click this HID service to
establish the connection between the scanner and the remote host device.
4.
The scanner will give four beeps in ascending tone to indicate the radio is
connected. At the same time, the scanner’s link indicator will give one blue blink
every 2.5 seconds to indicate the scanner is in radio-connected state.
Please note that if the scanner is not connected to the host device within one
minute after scanning the “HID Mode” command, the scanner will go to sleep
automatically. You just need to press the trigger to wake up the scanner to
continue the installation.
The installation procedures vary on different remote host devices, operation systems
and Bluetooth software drivers. Please consult your professional IT consultant to
obtain necessary support if any problem is encountered during the installation
processes.
While using HID mode, beware of potential errors in the data transmitted at the
same time when radio link quality is poor. We suggest you only use the scanner in
areas of good communications coverage at all times.
