Chapter 2 — Connect the SF61B

SF61 Cordless Scanner User’s Guide

Connect to Other HID Devices (Smartphones, Tablets, PDAs,
etc.)

You can use your SF61B with many types of portable computer
devices running various operating systems (Win32, Android, WinCE,
iOS, …).

EasySet provides some useful predefined quick-setup commands to
simplify the HID Bluetooth connection for devices of this type (see
the

Interface > Device profile > Predefined HID profile

folder in

the EasySet commands window):

•

PC/Linux

•

WinCE 5 / WinMobile 6.x / Android

•

iOS & MacOS (including a way to control the iOS virtual keyboard
from your scanner)

The Intermec web site also provides Technical Bulletins to help you
connect to devices of this type:

•

Connecting a scanner via HID to an Android tablet

•

Connecting a scanner via HID to iPad or iPhone

Note:

When using your SF61B with an iPad tablet computer, reading

bar codes containing more than 200 characters may cause problems
(iPad application crash, unwanted restart of the scanner).

We recommend that you take this limitation into account when
working with an iPad.
