3.2.2 CONFIGURE RELATED SETTINGS
Sniff Mode (Power-saving)
By default, this feature is enabled, meaning the scanner will listen to the wireless network at a
reduced rate.
*Enable
Disable
Note: When connecting more than two scanners to a notebook computer or PDA with
Bluetooth
®
wireless technology, we suggest that you disable the power-saving
setting for a more reliable connection.
Device Name Broadcasting
The scanner can be configured to hide itself from other devices equipped with Bluetooth
®
wireless
technology. Simply disable the device name broadcasting setting so that it won’t be discovered by
any other computer or PDA. However, broadcasting must be enabled for establishing an initial
connection with the scanner. For example, disable device name broadcasting after successfully
connecting the scanner to WorkStation1. Such connection will be maintained automatically unless
the scanner is removed from the paired device list (called unpairing) by WorkStation1 or any
changes made to authentication and the PIN code. If you want WorkStation2 to connect to the
scanner, you have to enable device name broadcasting first.
*Enable
Disable
Note: By default, device name broadcasting is enabled (which is required for initial
connection).
