2.2 Establishing
Bluetooth
Wireless Link
After enabling the Bluetooth
interface, establish a Bluetooth
wireless link between the scanner and the BA10-RKU
communications adapter (or some other Bluetooth
equipment) using the following procedures.
The scanner can configure itself as both a slave (default) and master. To configure it as a slave, use the QR-coded
parameter menu or configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D)*; to configure it as a master, it is necessary to specify
the slave's Bluetooth
address to the scanner.
Tip:
In addition to "As a master" and "As a slave" parameters, the configuration software provides a choice of "No
slave/master configuration change" (see page 56) that prevents the Bluetooth
wireless link from getting broken when
you change other parameters with the configuration software or batch-process QR Code symbols (see Chapter 4).
Scanner as Slave (default)
The scanner is a slave by default. This slave can establish a Bluetooth
wireless link with the BA10-RKU
communications adapter (or some other Bluetooth
equipment) as a master without special communication
procedures.
(1) If the scanner is currently a master, use the scanner to read the "Configure as slave" QR Code symbol given in
Section 13.2 using the procedure in Section 13.1 to switch it to slave operation.
(2) Wait for the scanner to beep three times, press the scanner's trigger switch, and wait approximately two minutes
(default) for the master device to connect to this slave.
(3) Configure the communications adapter (or some other Bluetooth
equipment) as a master and specify the
scanner's Bluetooth
address.
For the communications adapter, use the configuration software (BASetting). (For other Bluetooth
equipment,
use the procedures set forth in the user's manual.)
(4) Wait for the communications adapter (or some other Bluetooth
equipment) to establish a Bluetooth
wireless
link with the scanner as a slave.
(5) Wait for the scanner to beep twice and the indicator LED to turn green (for 0.5 second), indicating a successful
connection.
Note:
If the master device cannot discover the scanner available in the vicinity, set the longer inquiry time and let
the master device search it again.
Note:
In response to the connection request from the master device, the scanner unconditionally connects to it. No
Bluetooth
passkey is required to specify.
