1.7 - Bluetooth Radio Operation

1.7.1 - Introduction

This CR3 features a Bluetooth® wireless radio. The radio allows for point-to-point wireless communica-

tion with other Bluetooth devices that support serial port protocol (SPP). The following guide will give you

general instructions on connecting your CR3 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 specifi c to your device (Figure 1.13). This code will link your CR3 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 fi nd the 12-character Bluetooth address

somewhere on the device near the device’s serial number (see Figure 1.14).

If you purchased a CodeXML Bluetooth Modem or a Belkin® Bluetooth adapter from Code or from an

authorized distributor, a QuickConnect Code was included. If you bought a Bluetooth adapter separately

and wish to create a QuickConnect Code, please visit Code web site at:

http://www.codecorp.com/support/bdaddr.php.

Important Note: While installing the Bluetooth Confi guration Manager software that was included with

your Bluetooth adapter, make sure to note the Communication Port number the software assigned for the

adapter (e.g. COM 10). This is the COM Port your CR3 will connect through.

To connect your reader, scan the Reset to Factory Defaults below then the QuickConnect Code and your

CR3 will automatically connect. You should also scan the Save Settings code if you want to save these

settings. (Note: If the CR3 unit powers off without scanning the Save Settings code, you will lose your

settings.)
