cables are connected to the CR3500 with a 8-pin DIN connector.

Line up the 8-pin DIN connector into the back end of the unit. The arrows on the connector 

should be facing down (Figure 1).  When the two items are aligned, firmly push the cable 

into the reader.  

Reader & H2, BH1/BH2 Handle Assembly

The CR3500 utilizes the battery compartment to ‘snap’ the reader to the H2, BH1 and 

BH2 handles.  For the H2 (only), push the 8-pin DIN connector at the end of the reader 

into the flexible connector at the end of the handle.  For all three handles, snap the reader 

onto the handle (Figure 5) matching the battery compartment of the reader to the battery 

connectors, visible inside the handle (Figure 6).  Newer readers (MFG # 012_05 or later 

- Figure 7) can be secured further with threaded screws on the under side of the handle 

(Figure 8).

This Code Reader 3500 (CR3500) features a Bluetooth® wireless radio. The radio allows 
for point to point wireless communication with other Bluetooth devices that support serial 

port protocol (SPP). If keyboard entry is necessary, Code XML Router will need to be 
installed. The following guide will give you general instructions on connecting your CR3500 

to a desktop or laptop computer with a Bluetooth radio. 

Connecting With A QuickConnect Code

The easiest way to connect to a Bluetooth device is to visit the Code website and create 

a

 QuickConnect Code

 that is specific to your device (Figure 1). This code will link your 

CR3500 directly to the desired Bluetooth device. To create a 

QuickConnect Code,

 you will 

need to know the Bluetooth address (often referred to as the BD_ADDR) of that device. 

You can usually find the 12-character Bluetooth address somewhere on the device near 
the device’s serial number (see Figure 2).
