5.1.5 Timeout

no connection request during that period, the scanner will go to power down mode
to conserve power with three serial descending tones as indication. User can make
the scanner go back to active mode by pulling the trigger. And again, the scanner
will stay active for another one minute waiting for connection before it goes to
power down mode again. Once there is a successful connection, the scanner will
stay active until the connection is closed (when the host application closes the
COM port). After the connection is closed, the scanner will again wait for new
connection request for one minute before it goes to power down mode.

6. Bluetooth HID
The 800/850 scanner can be configured to the standard Bluetooth HID as data
output interface. This will make the 800/850 scanner sends the scanned barcode
data to Bluetooth enabled computer or PDA directly without the base unit
(however, a charging dock is still needed for charging the 800/850 battery).
This section illustrates a step-by-step installation and configuration procedures of
the 800/850 for Bluetooth HID. Bluetooth transceivers/dongles always come with
their own driver or Windows XP with service pack2 provides the build-in
Bluetooth driver. There are several Bluetooth device drivers for Windows and
WinCE/Pocket PC from different companies. Here we use Window XP with
service pack2 build-in Bluetooth driver and WIDCOMM driver as examples. For
detail installation procedures, please refer to the user’s manual of the Bluetooth
transceiver in use.
NOTE: Bluetooth HID doesn’t support the following functions on PDA:
Capital Lock Setting: Auto Detection
Digit Transmission: Numeric Key
Alt Composing
