CR3 Wireless Setup
If you purchased a CodeXML Bluetooth Modem or a Belkin® Bluetooth adapter from Code or from
an authorized distributor, a QuickConnect Code was included. If you bought a Bluetooth adapter
separately and wish to create a QuickConnect Code, please visit Code's web site at:
http://www.codecorp.com/support/bdaddr.php.
To connect your reader, use the following steps:
1. Power on the CR3 reader by pressing one of the red buttons for one second to power on the
reader.
2. Scan the Reset to RF Factory Defaults code on Page 3 (M684_01).
3. Scan the QuickConnect Code you received or created from Code's website (see Sample on
Page 3).
4. The CR3 will automatically connect to the computer. By default, the CR3 will beep once after it
connects and beep four times in a row if it did not connect.
5. Scan the Save Settings code on Page 3 (M188_02) if you want to save the wireless
connection settings to the CR3 so that the CR3 will automatically try to connect wirelessly
the next time it is powered on.
Important Note: You will need to locate the Communications (COM) Port assigned to the Blue-
tooth serial port protocol. While installing the Bluetooth Confi guration Manager software that was
included with your Bluetooth adapter, make sure to note the Communications (COM) Port number
the software assigned for the adapter (e.g., COM 10). This is the COM Port through which the CR3
will connect.

Radio Range and Transferring Data
The CR3 radio is a Class 1 device. If connected to another Class 1 device the unit has
roughly a 300 foot line-of-sight operating range. If connecting to a Class 2 or Class 3
device, the operating range will drop to match the lower range. Once a unit is connected,
a serial application must be opened (HyperTerminal) unless CodeXML Router is installed.
When the CR3 detects the radio is out of range, the CR3 will store data on the reader's
non-volatile memory.
For more information about setting up and using the CR3 with a wireless Bluetooth
confi guration, please visit www.codecorp.com/manuals.html and download the latest
version of the CR3 User Manual.
