Once a WPAN connection is established successfully, the LED is flashing blue (On/Off ratio 0.02 s: 3 s). If the scanner is idle during the specified time interval for Auto Power Off, it will automatically turn off when the time is up. You will hear three short beeps, tone descending from high to low. For BT HID or SPP, there is no transition from full CPU speed to low CPU speed. However, when connecting with 3610, the scanner will go through the transition in order to save power.  For BT HID, the scanner will resume connection with the host upon powering on again, as long as the host application is running. You will hear three short beeps, tone ascending from low to high. If the scanner fails to resume connection, it will try every five second to re-connect to the host unless you have the scanner read the Reset Connection label.  For BT SPP, the scanner must wait for the host to re-connect.  With the use of 3610, the scanner will try every five second to re-connect to 3610 unless you have the scanner read the Reset Connection label.

Note: When connecting more than two 1660 scanners to a notebook computer or PDA with Bluetooth® wireless technology, we suggest you to disable the power-saving setting for a more reliable connection. Device Name Broadcasting The scanner can be configured to hide itself from other devices equipped with Bluetooth® wireless technology. Simply disable the device name broadcasting setting so that it won’t be discovered by any other computer or PDA. However, broadcasting must be enabled for establishing an initial connection with the scanner. For example, you can disable device name broadcasting after successfully connecting the scanner to WorkStation1. Such connection will be maintained automatically unless the scanner is removed from the paired device list (called unpairing) by WorkStation1 or any changes made to authentication and the PIN code. If you want WorkStation2 to connect to the scanner, you will have to enable device name broadcasting first.

The scanner itself allows up to 16 characters for a PIN code. This means you will have to enter exactly the same string for your computer or PDA to connect to the scanner. If the passkey is incorrect, any connection attempt will be turned down by the scanner. When any changes are made to authentication and PIN code on the scanner side, you will have to remove the scanner from the paired device list (called unpairing) and go through the whole process to re-establish the connection.  Entering PIN code… By default, the BT PIN code is set to “0000”. Maximum 16 characters are allowed.       1. Read one of the labels above to specify the PIN code, in decimal or hexadecimal.  2. Read the “Decimal Value” label on page 169 or the “Hexadecimal Value” label on page 170 for the desired digits or character string.  3. Read the “Validate” label to complete this setting. Note: When using BT HID, some device driver may not support pre-defined PIN code for authentication. In this case, make sure you disable authentication before pairing. The host PIN code will be displayed on the computer screen. Have the scanner read the setup barcode “Enter PIN Code in Decimal” or “Enter PIN Code in Hexadecimal” to input the matching PIN code quickly.
