permanent on the reader:

Disconnecting from the Device
You may force disconnection by reading the disconnect code below (The CR2 may not appear
disconnected in the slave Bluetooth connection manager for 10 – 15 seconds after the command is issued). The CR2
will also disconnect after 90 seconds of inactivity (

Note: You may change the radio sleep time out setting; however, it may

reduce battery life).

1.7.2 - Bluetooth Radio Auto Connect

Auto Connect: After coming out of sleep mode or after powering up the CR2 tries to auto connect with the last Bluetooth
radio with which it was connected if the steps (previous) were followed (see Section 1.7.1 - Connecting with a Quick
Connect Code). You may also re-connect by scanning a QuickConnect code.

Scan the following codes to enable or disable Auto Connect feature for the Bluetooth radio:

Auto Connect: On (Default)

Auto Connect: Off

1.7.3 - Bluetooth Radio Auto Disconnect

Auto Disconnect: This feature is used when multiple CR2 readers are connecting to the same Bluetooth Radio. By
enabling Auto Disconnect the CR2 radio disconnects after each data transmission, allowing other radios to connect.

Scan the following codes to enable or disable Auto Disconnect feature for the Bluetooth radio:

Bluetooth Radio

Auto Disconnect: On

Auto Disconnect: Off (Default)

Note: Auto Connect should always
be set to “On” if Auto Disconnect
is set to “On”. Otherwise the

to be re-scanned after every
disconnect.
