5 Operations of the terminal Note: 1. Please establish a Bluetooth network and hold the terminal in the range of the network before the first time of scanning barcodes (See 5-3-1 Bluetooth). 2. The terminal can perform a barcode scan operation even though no Bluetooth network is available. However, the terminal may react in a way that differs from what is described here if no Bluetooth network is working.
Step 2: Press Right Soft Key to the window below. Step 3: Use Navigation Keys to move the cursor, Scan/Select Key to select number(s), Right Soft Key to delete selected number(s). And then press Left Soft Key to continue. 5-1-4 Add Time/Date The time information can be added as an appendix to a barcode by enabling the Add Time.
5-2 Data Transfer 5-2-1 Bluetooth 5-3 System Setting - Bluetooth for instructions to establish a Bluetooth network. Three options are listed below. Auto reconnection- When terminal’s Bluetooth is power on, it will try to establish the wireless connection with the host which it last connected, if Auto Reconnection is enabled. Inter-char delay- Inter-character delay is abbreviated to Inter-char delay.
Caution: Empty and Delete operations are not undoable. It is strongly recommended to back up the data before empty or delete operation. A) Empty/Delete Files If the U-disk is almost full, occupied room can be released by emptying/deleting some files. A target file is protected by system and prevented from being deleting.
5-3 System Setting 5-3-1 Bluetooth Functionalities The terminal can be configured to send data to a PC/Notebook/PDA/other instrument which has an integrated Bluetooth module or is connected with an external Bluetooth USB adapter. A diagram of Bluetooth functionalities and a table of various Bluetooth profiles are shown below, respectively: Table 5-1 Various Bluetooth profiles HID Keyboard The terminal connects to the PC/host via Bluetooth and behaves like a keyboard.
