RS-232
Once the imager is connected via RS-232, the software on the host must be open to
receive data with a communications program such as HyperTerminal.

The Bluetooth radio is a Class 1 device. If connected to another Class 1 device the imager
has roughly 100 meters (328 feet) line-of-sight operating range. If connected to a Class 2
or Class 3 device, the operating range may drop to match the lower range.
When the imager detects that the radio is out of range, it will store data in non-volatile
memory. The imager will continue to try to send data until the radio is back in range. Once
the data is sent, it will be erased from the unit's memory unless Batch Mode is set for Send
and Log. If the radio cannot connect in 90 seconds, it will emit an error beep. The imager
will continue to try to connect until it has reached the programmable radio timeout setting.
If the imager is in RF Two-Way Mode and Auto-Connect is enabled (which it is by
default), it will automatically attempt to reconnect with the host modem whenever:
• The imager is powered-on.
• The imager attempts to read another symbol.
Another important thing to consider is Bluetooth access. You choose Private when you
want to limit access to only one imager. You choose Shared when you want more than
one imager to have continuous access.
