8. For the Security Key enter four zeros (0000). Skip this step if a security key is not required.
9. Click Pair with peripheral to initiate pairing.
Note that you can also import a list of connected devices and set up those connections in
VoiceConsole. This “bulk pair” option may be useful in some situations.
Pairing Initiated by a Bluetooth Device
This method of pairing is useful if a scanner or printer will be used with more than one Talkman
A700/A700x device. It is usually more advantageous to allow a device to actively pair with the
Talkman as opposed to having Talkman initiate the pairing, permitting any Talkman to be used
with any device.
This pairing can be easily done with most scanners; however printers may not have the capability
to initiate the pairing process.
To enable a Talkman device to listen for a connection with a Bluetooth device you will need:
l
Access to VoiceConsole to set up the pairing. For production use, Honeywell recommends
that you create a specific device profile in VoiceConsole to store many of the following
settings.
More information can be found in the Voice Console Online Help.

Pairing instructions specific to your scanner.
1. Generate a bar code for pairing. See Barcode Identifier Label for Pairing Scanners for more
information.
If the scanner can be paired with a single bar code, that sequence can be printed as a label
and placed on the Talkman device. Workers who need to pair the scanner can then simply
pick up the Talkman and scan this code.
2. Using VoiceConsole, locate the specific device to be paired with the scanner.
3. View the properties of the device, and ensure that Bluetooth is enabled. If it is not enabled,
click Edit this device and set Bluetooth Enabled to "enabled."
A device profile can include the parameter Bluetooth_IsEnabled set to TRUE in the
advanced settings.
More information can be found in the Voice Console Online Help.
4. Select the Pair this device with a peripheral option.
5. For Pairing Type select "Bluetooth Scanner."
The parameter BarcodePort can be set to BT_SCAN for scanners or BT_PRINT for printers.
Configure this parameter in the advanced settings of the task package.
6. For Connection Mode select "Device listens for peripheral connection."
7. For Security select "Enabled" if security is required.
8. For Security Key enter four zeros "0000." Skip this step if a security key is not required.
9. Click Pair with peripheral to initiate pairing.
10. To complete the pairing, scan the bar code created for the device in the first step.
11. When finished using the Talkman and scanner, unpair the Talkman to set the scanner to
acceptor mode.
Performing this step ensures that the scanner does not generate spurious Bluetooth RF
that could interfere with other transmissions. When an initiator device becomes unpaired,
such as when the Talkman device is turned off, the initiator will try to re-pair by paging or
