To pair and connect the CHS with your PDA:
You only need to pair the CHS with your PDA the first time you try to connect.
The following instructions are based on Socket EZ Pair, a feature of SocketScan 10
software. For instructions on how to connect by generating and scanning a special
barcode (ActivePairing), please see Appendix I
.
1. Power on the CHS. Press and hold the small power button until the LED turns blue and
the CHS beeps twice (low-high).
The LED blinks blue once per second to show that the Bluetooth radio is on but not
connected.
2. Scan this barcode to change the CHS to SPP mode. Afterwards, the CHS will beep 3 times.
IMPORTANT! Print out this page to scan the barcode. Do not scan it onscreen.
3. Make sure the PDA has Bluetooth on and is in Discoverable mode (i.e., it will be visible to
other Bluetooth devices). Make sure the PDA is not restricted to only connect to devices
it already paired with.
4. Follow the instructions for your type of Bluetooth stack to pair the CHS to your PDA.
To determine your type of Bluetooth stack, tap Start | Programs | SocketScan 10
folder | SocketScan Settings. The Bluetooth stack is reported at the top of the
screen.
In the device search, the CHS will appear as Socket CHS [xxxxxx]. The characters in
brackets are the last six characters of the CHS Bluetooth Device Address (BDA),
which is labeled inside the battery compartment.
Only devices running Bluetooth 2.0 will prompt for a passkey.
The CHS will beep once when it has connected and is ready to scan barcodes.
The LED will also blink blue once every 3 seconds.
