It is essential to connect to the CHS via Quick Connect because this sets
the CHS as your default Bluetooth serial device.

During the device search, the CHS will appear as
Socket
CHS [xxxxxx]
The characters in brackets are the last 6 characters of the scanner’s
Bluetooth MAC address.

CHS will beep once.
By default, the Bluetooth software will ask you for the passkey each time
you connect. To stop the automatic prompts, under Advanced
Configuration, disable the Secure Connection requirement for both the
Local Service and Client Application, then unpair the devices. Refer to
the documentation for your Bluetooth hardware/software for complete
instructions.
