The  USB  Plug  &  Scan  dongle  is  only  able  to  establish  point-to-point  connections.  This  means  that  the  USB 

dongle cannot connect simultaneously to more than one device. 

The USB Plug & Scan dongle can have three (3) states:  

 

Disconnected

:  The  dongle  can  accept  connections  from  any  Baracoda  scanner  (see  how  to  connect 

your Baracoda scanner). 

 

 

Paired  and  waiting  for  connection

:  The  dongle  has  already  been  paired  to  a  Baracoda  scanner.  Just 

switch  on  this  scanner  inside  the  Bluetooth  range  of  the  USB  dongle  and  the  connection  will  be 
automatically established.  

This mode allows other Baracoda scanners to connect to the USB dongle. Scan the “connect” barcode, 

then the previous Baracoda scanner will disconnect and the new Baracoda scanner will connect to the 

dongle. 

 

Connected:

  The  USB  dongle  is  connected  to  the  Baracoda  scanner.  Just  scan  barcodes  and  the  data 

will be transmitted to your active application.  

This mode allows other Baracoda scanners to connect to the USB dongle. Scan the “connect” barcode, 

then the previous Baracoda scanner will disconnect and the new Baracoda scanner will connect to the 

dongle.
