If you purchased a CodeXML Bluetooth Modem or a Belkin® Bluetooth adapter from Code or
from an authorized distributor, a QuickConnect Code was included. If you bought a Bluetooth
adapter separately and wish to create a QuickConnect Code, please visit Code’s web site at:

To connect your reader, use the following steps:
1. Power on the CR2500 reader by pressing one of the red buttons for one second to
power on the reader.
2. Scan the
Reset to RF Factory Defaults
code on Page 3 (M684_01).
3. Scan the
QuickConnect Code
you received or created from Code’s website.
4. The CR2500 will automatically connect to the computer. By default, the CR2500 will beep
once after it connects and beep four times in a row if it did not connect.
5. Scan the
Save Settings
code on Page 3 (M188_02) if you want to save the wireless
connection settings to the CR2500 so that the CR2500 will automatically try to connect
wirelessly the next time it is powered on.
Important Note:
You will need to locate the Communications (COM) Port assigned to the
Bluetooth serial port protocol. While installing the Bluetooth Configuration Manager software
that was included with your Bluetooth adapter, make sure to note the Communications (COM)
Port number the software assigned for the adapter (e.g.,
COM 10). This is the COM Port
through which the CR2500 will connect.
Radio Range and Transferring Data
The CR2500 radio is a Class 1 device. If connected to another Class 1 device the unit has roughly
a 300 feet line-of-sight operating range. If connecting to a Class 2 or Class 3 device, the operating
range will drop to match the lower range. Once a unit is connected, a serial application must be
opened (HyperTerminal) unless CodeXML Router is installed.
When the CR2500 detects the radio is out of range, the CR2500 will store data on the reader’s
non-volatile memory.
For more information about setting up and using the CR2500 with a wireless Bluetooth
configuration, please visit

and download the latest version of
the CR2500 User Manual.
Reading Tips
CR2500’s unique targeting
function uses two converging
targeting LEDs to guide the user
to optimal reading range.
