Bluetooth Security; Authentication - Motorola LS3578 Product Reference Manual

Radio Communications 4 - 27

Bluetooth Security

The scanner supports Bluetooth Authentication and Encryption. Authentication can be requested by either the
remote device or the scanner. When Authentication is requested, the scanner uses its programmed PIN code to
generate a link key. The scanner stores this link key upon pairing, so you do not have to re-enter the PIN code
when moving in and out of range, switching profiles, or switching between devices (e.g., between the cradle and
the application).
Once Authentication is complete, either device may then negotiate to enable Encryption.
NOTE A remote device can still request Authentication.

Authentication

To force Authentication with a remote device (including the cradle), scan the Enable Authentication bar code
below. To prevent the scanner from forcing Authentication, scan the Disable Authentication bar code below.
