Connecting your OPR3301 to a CRD3301 (using the USB-HID cable)
The able to receive barcodes as keyboard data via the CRD3301, first make sure that
the USB cable is connected between the CRD3301 and your PC. Since the CRD3301
can be powered by USB it's not necessary to connect the 6.0V power supply as well.
When connecting the OPR3301 to a CRD3301 for the first time, make sure you've read
the 'Bluetooth HID' default label (see chapter 1.1). Because the CRD3301 will behave
like a normal USB keyboard it won't be necessary to install any USB-drivers on your
PC.
To connect the OPR3301 to the CRD3301 read the Bluetooth address label
underneath the cradle. As soon as the OPR3301 is connected to the cradle it will sound
a high beep. The blue cradle LED acts as connection indicator and will stay on
continuously when being connected.
When connected, a scanned barcode should now be transmitted to your PC (or other
device that supports USB-HID) as keyboard data.
If you move out of range (or turned off) the CRD3301, then the OPR3301 will try to
reconnect for 5 minutes. Afterwards, you can also reconnect manually by pressing the
trigger key for 5 seconds or by reading the Bluetooth address label underneath the
CRD3301 again.
To manually end your connection you can scan the DISCONNECT label (see chapter
2.3.1 of the menu book). It is also possible to disconnect by pressing the trigger key by
configuring a 'trigger-to-disconnect' time (see Chapter 2.3.4. of the Universal menu
book).

Connecting your OPR3301 as Bluetooth keyboard
The first step of connecting your OPR3301 as Bluetooth keyboard to a remote device is
to make sure you've configured it to Bluetooth HID default and read the 'Connect to PC'
label (see chapter 1.1).
When using the OPR3301 as Bluetooth keyboard, the remote device always has to
make the first connection attempt (for security reasons). For this reason you will have
to make your OPR3301 discoverable and connectable to allow the remote device to
find, pair and connect to your OPR3301.
To make your OPR3301 discoverable and connectable (for 2 minutes) read the label
below (this label can also be found in chapter 2.3.1 of the Universal menu book).
Make discoverable and
connectable
When this is done, let your remote device discover all Bluetooth devices in range to find
your OPR3301.
