Parameter Broadcast (Cradle Host Only)
When in multipoint-to-point mode, enable Parameter Broadcast to broadcast all parameter bar codes scanned to
all other devices in the piconet. If disabled, parameter bar codes are processed by the individual device only, and
the device ignores parameters broadcast from other devices or from the cradle.
Pairing
Pairing is the process by which a device initiates communication with a cradle. Scanning Multipoint-to-Point
activates multi device-to-cradle operation and allows up to seven devices to pair to one cradle. The cradle includes
a pairing bar code.
To pair the device with the cradle, scan the pairing bar code on the cradle. A high/low/high/low beep sequence
indicates that the pairing bar code was decoded. When a connection between the cradle and device is established,
a low/high beep sounds.
*Enable Parameter Broadcast
Disable Parameter Broadcast
NOTE 1. The pairing bar code that connects the device to a cradle is unique to each cradle.
2. Do not scan data or parameters until pairing completes.
3. When the device is paired to the cradle in SPP Master or Cradle Host mode, the device automatically
tries to reconnect to a remote device when a disconnection occurs that is due to the radio losing
communication. For more information see Auto-reconnect Feature on page 4-14.
