Parameter Broadcast (Cradle Host Only); Pairing - Motorola Symbol DS6878 Product Reference Manual

Parameter Broadcast (Cradle Host Only)

When in multipoint-to-point mode, enable Parameter Broadcast to broadcast all parameter bar codes scanned to
all other digital scanners in the piconet. If disabled, parameter bar codes are processed by the individual digital
scanner only, and the digital scanner ignores parameters broadcast from other digital scanners or from the cradle.

Pairing

Pairing is the process by which a digital scanner initiates communication with a cradle. Scanning
Multipoint-to-Point activates multi digital scanner-to-cradle operation and allows up to three digital scanners to
pair to one cradle. The cradle includes a pairing bar code.
To pair the digital scanner with the cradle, scan the pairing bar code on the cradle. A high/low/high/low beep
sequence indicates that the pairing bar code was decoded. When a connection between the cradle and digital
scanner is established, a low/high beep sounds.
NOTE 1. The pairing bar code that connects the digital scanner to a cradle is unique to each cradle.
2. Do not scan data or parameters until pairing completes.
3. When the digital scanner is paired to the cradle in SPP Master or Cradle Host mode, the digital scanner
automatically tries to reconnect to a remote device when a disconnection occurs that is due to the radio
losing communication. For more information see
