Some Bluetooth drivers on the Host (such as WIDCOMM and
BlueSoleil 8) require a Variable PIN Code. When attempting

Please read the bar code "Variable PIN Code" and restart the
sequence from step 2 above.

When you hear the beep and see the Green LED blinking indi-
cating the reader is waiting for an alphanumeric entry, enter
the required variable PIN Code by scanning the corresponding
bar codes in the
