Pairing Modes
When operating with the cradle, two modes of pairing are supported:
•
Locked Pairing Mode - When a cradle is paired (connected) to the scanner (or to three scanners in
Multipoint-to-Point mode), any attempt to connect a different scanner, by either scanning the PAIR bar code
on the cradle or by inserting it into the cradle with the pairing on contacts feature enabled
rejected. The currently connected scanner(s) maintain connection. In this mode, you must set a Connection
Maintenance Interval on page 4-24.
•
Unlocked Pairing Mode - Pair (connect) a new scanner to a cradle at any time by either scanning the PAIR
bar code on the cradle or by inserting it into the cradle with the pairing on contacts feature enabled. This
unpairs the previous scanner from the cradle.
NOTE In Multipoint-to-Point mode, pairing a 4th scanner while in Unlocked mode replaces any disconnected (out
of range) scanner. However, if three scanners are actively connected to the cradle, a 4th scanner cannot
connect regardless of the pairing mode.
To set the cradle pairing mode, scan the appropriate bar code below.
Lock Override
Lock Override overrides a locked scanner base pairing and connects a new scanner. In Multipoint-to-Point mode,
this unpairs any disconnected (out of range) scanner first, in order to connect the new scanner.
To use Lock Override, scan the bar code below, followed by the pairing bar code on the cradle.
