Authentication
For security concerns, it is suggested that you enable authentication and specify a unique PIN
code, also known as the passkey used to pair two devices before establishing a WPA connection.
The scanner itself allows up to 16 characters for a PIN code. This means you will have to enter
exactly the same string for your computer or PDA to connect to the scanner. If the passkey is
incorrect, any connection attempt will be turned down by the scanner. When any changes are
made to authentication and PIN code on the scanner side, you will have to remove the scanner
from the paired device list (called unpairing) and go through the whole process to re-establish the
connection.
Entering PIN code…
By default, the BT PIN code is set to “0000”. Maximum 16 characters are allowed.
1. Read one of the labels above to specify the PIN code, in decimal or hexadecimal.
2. Read the “Decimal Value” label on page 169 or the “Hexadecimal Value” label on page 170 for
the desired digits or character string.
3. Read the “Validate” label to complete this setting.
Note: When using BT HID, some device driver may not support pre-defined PIN code for
authentication. In this case, make sure you disable authentication before pairing.
The host PIN code will be displayed on the computer screen. Have the scanner
read the setup barcode “Enter PIN Code in Decimal” or “Enter PIN Code in
Hexadecimal” to input the matching PIN code quickly.
