Now, open the Bluetooth Settings menu of your tablet and turn Bluetooth on (if it is not already on).
Tap ‘Pair New Device’ to begin scanning for Bluetooth devices.
Your scanner should appear in the list - you can identify your scanner by the first 4 numbers “
1662
”
followed by the serial number (e.g
1662CFJ000123
). The serial number of your scanner is located on the
label of your scanner box. Tap your scanner in the list to pair it with your tablet. If you see a prompt to
enter a PIN code, simply tap ‘Pair’ without entering anything - the PIN setting is disabled by default on
the scanner and is not required.
Your scanner should now be paired with your TnP Prime. To test your scanner, open the WinPATS App
and return to the Home screen. Scan one of the barcodes on the outside of the scanner box, and you
should see the barcode appear in the ‘Search Barcode’ field on screen.
Important: After pairing the barcode scanner, you may find that the on screen keyboard of your tablet
no longer appears when you tap a text field. To fix this, tap any text field (such as the ‘Search Barcode’
field on the WinPATS home screen). You will see a keyboard icon appear in the bottom right corner of
your screen. Tap this icon, then turn ‘Show Virtual Keyboard’ on. Your tablet will remember this setting
and will display the keyboard from now on.
If you encounter any issues consult the quick start guide included with the scanner, or contact us for
support.
Setting up the WinPATS App
Setting up the new WinPATS App is simple, but can take some time. We recommend setting up WinPATS
before you need to use it on site. You will need to download “WinPATS Pro” from the Google Play Store
onto your Android tablet. On our website, you can find a set of videos that will guide you through
the various functions and features of the new WinPATS App. This guide will walk through setting up
WinPATS and connecting to your tester.
Once you have downloaded the WinPATS App, open it and create up a 4 digit pin code. This will help
keep your data secure.
Next, it’s time to set up your Company Account. If your employer or organisation has an account
already, you can log in now using the details provided to you. Otherwise, tap Register Company to set
up your Company Account - you will be prompted to enable WinPATS’ permissions - this allows you to
use the full set of WinPATS features.
Now, fill in your details - a valid ABN is required to register a new company. You should use the
address and contact details of your head office. Once your details are entered, check they are correct,
then tap Register.
