Code CR3 Quick Start Manual

CR3 (Batch Mode) Cable & Handle Installation
The CR3 is available with USB (6 ft. and 12 ft.), RS232 and PS2 cables. All of the cables
are connected to the CR3 with a 8-pin DIN connector. Please determine the best connector
for use with your host computer.

nstall a Cable Directly to the CR3
Line up the 8-pin DIN connector into the back end of the unit. The arrows on the connector
should be facing down (Figure 1). When the two items are aligned, fi rmly push the cable
into the reader.
The cable has a locking mecha-

nism that will fi rmly hold the cable
in place (Figure 2). To detach the
cable, pinch the plastic on the
8-pin DIN and pull back to
disengage the connector.
Install a Cable to a Handle
If you purchased a cabled handle for use with the CR3, the 8-pin DIN connector is at the
bottom of the handle (Figure 3). Line up the cable's 8-pin DIN connector with the handle's
connector and fi rmly push the cable into the handle. The cable has a locking mechanism
that will fi rmly hold the cable in place. To detach the cable from the reader, pinch the plastic
on the 8-pin DIN and pull back to disengage the connector.
For additional security, if using the H2
cabled handle, there is an optional cable
attachment clip that can secure the cable
to the handle with two threaded screws
(Figure 4).

Reader & H2, BH1/BH2 Handle Assembly
The CR3 utilizes the battery compartment to 'snap' the reader to the H2, BH1 and BH2
handles. For the H2 (only), push the 8-pin DIN connector at the end of the reader into the
fl exible connector at the end of the handle. For all three handles, snap the reader onto the
handle (Figure 5) matching the battery compartment of the reader to the battery connec-
tors, visible inside the handle (Figure 6). Newer readers (MFG # 012_05- see Figure 7)
can be secured further with threaded screws on the under side of the handle (Figure 8).

Reader & H1 Handle Assembly
Slide the CR3 into the handle, aligning the 8-pin DIN
connector to the stationary connector pin on the handle
(Figure 9). Push reader and handle together fi rmly until
you feel the reader 'click' in place.

Code Reader 3.0 - Wireless
CR3 Wireless Setup
This CR3 features a Bluetooth® wireless radio. The radio allows for point to point wireless
communication with other Bluetooth devices that support serial port protocol (SPP). The
following guide will give you general instructions on connecting your CR3 to a desktop or
laptop computer with a Bluetooth radio.
Connecting With A QuickConnect Code
The easiest way to connect to a Bluetooth device is to visit the Code website and create a
QuickConnect Code that is specifi c to your device (Figure 1). This code will link your CR3
directly to the desired Bluetooth device. To create a QuickConnect Code, you will need
to know the Bluetooth address (often referred to as the BD_ADDR) of that device. You
can usually fi nd the 12-character Bluetooth address somewhere on the device near the
device's serial number (see Figure 2).
