Newland BS8050-3V Piranha User Manual page 18

There are two data transmission modes: Synchronous mode and Asynchronous mode.
(1) Synchronous mode: When you scan barcodes, the data will be sent to smartphone/tablet directly. If
you are out of Bluetooth service range, scanned data will be lost.
(2) Asynchronous mode: When you are out of Bluetooth service range, scanned data will be saved in the
FLASH memory. Once you are back to service range, the data will be sent to smartphone/tablet
automatically. The scanner will automatically remove it from the FLASH memory after smartphone/tablet
receives the data.
Asynchronous Mode (default)
