Chapter 2 — Connecting and Configuring the SR61
SR61 Cordless Scanner User’s Guide 21
Configuring Bluetooth Communications
The SR61 can communicate with a host device through the
Serial Port Profile (SPP) Bluetooth communications profile.
SPP allows your SR61 to use the Bluetooth link as a serial port
to communicate with your host device. You can send information
from the SR61 to your serial application without having to
modify your application.
You can initiate a Bluetooth connection from either your SR61
or host device:
• SR61 initiated Bluetooth connection: Intermec recommends
this method. If you initiate the connection from your SR61,
you can only connect one SR61 to your host device. But,
when you reset the SR61 by removing and installing the AB3
battery, the SR61 automatically reestablishes the Bluetooth
connection.
• Host device initiated Bluetooth connection: If you initiate the
connection from a host device, you can connect more than
one SR61 to the same host device. But, when you reset the
SR61 by removing and installing the AB3 battery, you need to
reestablish the Bluetooth connection from your host device.
Configuring Security
The SR61 provides Bluetooth wireless security for transmitting
data. By default, security is active on your SR61. For maximum
security, you need to configure a Bluetooth PIN (personal
identification number).
This section assumes that you have already installed EasySet
version 5.4.1 or later.
To configure a Bluetooth PIN for your SR61
1 Start EasySet.
2 In the Commands window, select Data transmission settings
> Bluetooth parameters > security.
3 Select active.
4 Select compose PIN and create a Bluetooth PIN that is up to
16 characters in length. The default Bluetooth PIN is 0000.
