Getting Started Getting Familiar with Your FuzzyScan Thank you for choosing Cino FuzzyScan Bluetooth Cordless Image Scanner. Powered by the combination of cutting-edge FuzzyScan 2.0 Imaging Technology and Bluetooth 2.1 EDR wireless technology, it not only provides outstanding reading performance, but also delivers the convenience and freedom of mobility. This document provides a quick reference for installation and operation purposes.
Getting Started Preparation before Using Install the Battery Ensure the battery co ntacts of the battery pack are facing the charging contacts inside the battery cavity. Slide the battery pack into the battery cavity until hearing a click sound before locking it with the end cap.
Decide Your Radio Link Mode The FuzzyScan Bluetooth image scanner provides several radio link modes to communicate with most host devices. When the Bluetooth-enabled host device is not available, it can work with the smart cradle in PAIR mode (one to one connection) or PICO mode (multiple connections) to provide a plug-and-play cordless migration of your existing non-Bluetooth-enabled IT assets.
The default host interface of smart cradle is preset to USB HID. If you want to set the host interface to USB COM, you have to install the USB virtual COM driver into your host device before using the scanner. Please visit the CINO website to download...
Getting Started Using FuzzyScan in PICO Mode Ensure the battery is fully charged and choose your desired interface cable, then plug it into the host interface port of the smart cradle and connect it to the host device. PS/2 RS232 Turn on the power of your host device.
Page 10
Getting Started Clone Function For the user’s convenience, the clone function will help you to clone the host interface related parameters (please refer to following table for details) from one of the paired scanners to the rest of paired scanners under PICO mode. You can use one of the paired scanners to set the host interface related parameters first and then scan “Save Configuration”...
FxxxBT-xxxx’’ is shown in the list if the scanner is successfully discovered already. Double click the “CINO FxxxBT-xxxx” in the discovered Bluetooth device list. If the PIN Code or Passkey is requested for security connection, please enter “00000000” (default setting). You will see “Keyboard on CINO FxxxBT-xxxx”, and double click this HID service to establish the connection between the scanner and the remote host device.
Getting Started Using FuzzyScan in SPP Mode Establish SPP Master Connection Ensure the battery is fully charged. Please go to the folder of “Hardware” located in Bluetooth Advanced Setting of the remote host device to check its device MAC address. Then prepare a 12-character Code 128 barcode of the remote host device MAC address, or follow the step 4 to input MAC address by scanning 12 option codes.

‘’CINO FxxxBT-xxxx’’ is shown in the list if the scanner is successfully discovered already. Double click the “CINO FxxxBT-xxxx” on the discovered Bluetooth devices. If the PIN Code or Passkey is requested for security connection, please enter “00000000” (default setting). You will see “Serial Port on CINO FxxxBT-xxxx”, and double click this SPP service to establish the connection between the scanner and the remote host device.
Getting Started Out-of-range Scanning When the radio is connected between the scanner and the remote host device, the scanner will transmit each scanned data right after scanning the barcode. However, the scanner is preset for unable to scan any barcode data when it loses the radio connection with the remote host device.
Getting Started Batch Scanning (Inventory Mode) Thanks to the specially designed Batch Scanning function, the scanner is capable of storing the barcode data up to 20,000 EAN-13 labels. It is an ideal cost-saving solution for inventory applications. Once you scan the “Enter Batch Scanning” command to activate this function, all scanned barcode data will be stored into the memory storage, and the status indicator of scanner will give green blink at regular interval during batch scanning.

This option is very helpful to ensure the reliability of data communication. When the ACK/NAK Software Handshaking option is selected, the FuzzyScan waits for an ACK (acknowledge) or NAK (not acknowledge) from the host computer after each data transmission. If the NAK is received, FuzzyScan will re-send the data until receiving ACK.

The Redundancy is the number of times the same bar code label has to be decoded before it is transmitted. The Reread Delay (Double Scan Verification) is designed to inhibit FuzzyScan from reading the same bar code label twice in pre-defined short duration. Force Verification will not allow reading of the same bar code twice.
