Radio Communications
Reconnect Attempt Beep Feedback
When in SPP Primary, Cradle Host Mode, and Bluetooth Keyboard Emulation, the scanner
automatically tries to reconnect to a remote device when a disconnection occurs that is due
to the radio losing communication. This can happen if the scanner goes out of range with the
remote device, or if the remote device powers down. The scanner tries to reconnect for the
period of time specified by the Reconnect Attempt Interval setting. During that time the
green LED continues to blink.
If the auto-reconnect process fails due to page time-outs, the scanner sounds a page timeout
beep (long low/long high) and enters low power mode. The auto-reconnect process can be
re-started by pulling the scanner trigger.
If the auto-reconnect process fails because the remote device rejects the connection
attempt, the scanner sounds a connection reject beep sequence and deletes the remote
pairing address. If this happens, a pairing symbol must be scanned to attempt a new connection
to the remote device.
If a barcode is scanned while the auto-reconnect sequence is in process, a transmission
error beep sequence sounds and the data is not transmitted to the host. After a connection
is reestablished, normal scanning operation returns.
The scanner has memory available for storing a remote Bluetooth address for each Primary
mode (SPP, Cradle). When switching between these modes, the scanner automatically tries
to reconnect to the last device it was connected to in that mode.
Switching between Bluetooth host types by scanning a host type programming symbol
causes the radio to be reset. Scanning is disabled during this time. It takes several seconds
for the scanner to re-initialize the radio at which time scanning is enabled.
