To scan barcodes:
1. Open your application. Place the cursor where you want to enter data.
2. Press the trigger button to scan a barcode. Make sure the aiming beam extends
across the entire width of the barcode.
For example, try scanning the following barcode:
IMPORTANT! Print out this page to scan the barcode. Do not scan it onscreen.
After decoding the barcode and sending it to the phone/tablet, by default the CHS will
beep once, the LED will flash green, and the beam will turn off. The CHS 7Ci and 7P will
also vibrate to indicate that the barcode is decoded. You can use Command Barcodes
to modify the beep / LED / vibrate settings.
By default, a carriage return is applied after scanned barcode data is entered. To
disable the automatic carriage return, you can use the Command Barcodes
(use the
Data Editing barcode for disabling suffixes).
If no data is read in a few seconds, the beam will turn off, and you must try again.
To Disconnect:
To disconnect, turn off the CHS. Press and hold the power button for at least 3 seconds, until
the CHS beeps twice (high-low) and the blue LED turns off.
Automatic Reconnection:
After you power on the CHS, it will automatically try to connect to the last phone/tablet it paired
and connected to. Make sure your phone/tablet is in range with Bluetooth enabled.
If the CHS is connected to your phone/tablet and gets disconnected, it will try to reconnect for a
few minutes. Make sure the phone/tablet is on and in range. If the CHS cannot reconnect, you
will hear a long beep. Power cycle the scanner to restart the reconnection process.
The CHS can only be paired with one device at a time. To use the CHS with a different
device, see Appendix G
for unpairing instructions.
