DEVICE
NOTE
The following procedures must be performed only if using the
Lynx™ BT reader with a BT device. If using the reader paired to
an OM-1000 BT cradle, you must follow the configuration
procedures as described in the cradle Quick Reference Guide.
To start using your Lynx™ BT
reading system you must:
1.
Have a compatible remote Bluetooth
®
device (with built-in Bluetooth
®
radio
or an external Bluetooth
®
adapter) ready to work. See your Bluetooth
®
compatible device documentation.
2.
Charge the Lynx™ BT battery using C-1000 charger as described in this
Quick Reference manual. A full charge takes up to 4 hours with Li-Ion
batteries.
3.
Configure the reader as described in this Quick Reference manual under
"Lynx™ BT Configuration".
Lynx™ BT as Slave
A Lynx™ BT is Slave when it sends codes to a Master remote Bluetooth
®
device such as a PC, Laptop, PDA, etc, which has initialized the
communication.
Once set as Slave, a Lynx™ BT reader requires no particular configuration for
communication, however some radio parameters can be set to increase system
performance and data transmission security, see the Lynx™ BT Reference
Manual on the configuration CD-ROM. At startup the reader can only wait for
the Master to initialize the radio communication.
The following is a general procedure recommended for Lynx™ BT Slave
applications:
1.
Power up the remote Bluetooth
®
Master device (e.g. Laptop or PC).
2.
Power up the Lynx™ BT reader within radio range (10 meters).
Any modifications to the radio configuration should be made at this time
before the radio connection takes place.
3.
From the remote Bluetooth
®
Master device, execute the Discovery
procedure, (according to the procedure given in the documentation of
the Bluetooth
®
Master device), to recognize the Lynx™ BT reader(s)
within radio range.
4.
Check that "
Datalogic BT Device s/n:
" is shown among the
discovered devices.
5.
Request to open an SPP connection with Lynx™ BT, making sure to
disable any required PIN and/or pairing parameters. Lynx™ BT is
discoverable and connectable without any required PIN (default).
