Powering ON:
Press and hold down the small power button until the
LED turns blue and the CHS beeps twice (low-high).
Powering OFF / Disconnecting:
Press and hold down the small power button until the

Scanning Barcodes:
After connecting the CHS to your device, open an
application. Put the cursor where you want to enter data.
Hold the CHS about 4 inches (10 cm) from the barcode
and press and hold the trigger button. Make sure the red
beam covers the entire width of the barcode.
By default, the CHS will beep and vibrate, and the LED
will flash green to confirm that data was decoded and
sent to the host device.
Automatic Reconnections:
After you power on the CHS, it will automatically try to
connect to the last device it paired and connected to.

Make sure the device is in range with Bluetooth on.

If using SPP mode, make sure SocketScan 10 software
or an application developed with SocketScan 10 SDK
is running.
If the CHS is connected to a device and gets disconnected, it
will try to reconnect for a few minutes. Make sure the
device is on and in range. If the CHS cannot reconnect, it
will emit a long beep. Press the trigger button to restart
the reconnection process.
