Linking to a PC in Client Mode (BT Master Mode)

The reader can optionally be linked in client mode to a Bluetooth-enabled PC with the serial

port profile. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Ensure the PC or terminal can network with Bluetooth devices and that it is powered on.
2. Ensure that a COM port is assigned under Services within the Bluetooth setup menu.
3. Create a Link label that contains the address of the PC Bluetooth adapter.

NOTE

The Bluetooth address can be found under "Properties" within in the Bluetooth setup
menu.

The link label is a Code 128 function 3 label with the following format:

<FN3 char>LnkB<12 character Bluetooth address>

4. Scan the link label you created in step 3.

Linking to a PC in HID mode
