Serial Port Profile (SPP)
Select this host type when connecting to a PC/tablet/phone using a Bluetooth serial connection.
• SPP BT Classic (Non-Discoverable) - Enables the digital scanner to establish a Serial Port Profile (SPP)
connection with the host over Bluetooth Classic radio. The digital scanner is NOT discoverable (Master
Mode).
To establish a connection (initial setup only):
1. Scan the SPP BT Classic (Non-discoverable) bar code.
2. Scan a pairing bar code with the MAC address of the host device.
• SPP BT Classic (Discoverable) - Enables the host to establish a Serial Port Profile (SPP) connection with
the digital scanner over Bluetooth Classic radio. The digital scanner is discoverable (Slave Mode).
To establish a connection (initial setup only):
1. Scan the SPP BT Classic (Discoverable) bar code.
2. From the host, discover Bluetooth devices and select your digital scanner from the discovered device
list.
Bluetooth Technology Profile Support
With Bluetooth Technology Profile Support, the cradle is not required for wireless communication. The digital
scanner communicates directly to the host using Bluetooth technology. The digital scanner supports the standard
Bluetooth Serial Port Profile (SPP) and HID Profiles which enable the digital scanner to communicate with other
Bluetooth devices that support these profiles.
• SPP - the digital scanner connects to the PC/host via Bluetooth and performs like there is a serial connection.
• HID - the digital scanner connects to the PC/host via Bluetooth and performs like a keyboard.
Master/Slave Set Up
The digital scanner can be set up as a Master or Slave. When the digital scanner is set up as a Slave, it is
discoverable and connectible to other devices. When the digital scanner is set up as a Master, the Bluetooth
address of the remote device to which a connection is requested is required. A pairing bar code with the remote
device address must be created and scanned to attempt a connection to the remote device. See the Pairing Bar
Code Format on page 5-29 for information about creating a pairing bar code.
