Operating Your Tablet Computer to close the ScannerManager DAP Technologies 2-39 Working With Bluetooth Scanners Scanner Manager recognizes Bluetooth scanners that are in master mode. This means that the scanner initiates the connection. In order to do that, it must have a way to know which unit to connect to. Scanner manufacturers explain how to proceed to configure and pair their devices in their documentation. Usually, the user must create a special barcode based on the Bluetooth MAC address of the computer. Once that barcode has been generated, it does not change. It can be placed on the M9020, and the next time any scanner has to be associated with the unit, an operator simply needs to scan the code and wait the connection to be established automatically. For DAP and Symbol/Motorola scanners, you can use the Bluetooth Master Pairing tab in the ScannerManager Bluetooth settings as follows: Bluetooth Master Configuration When Using BlueSoleil or the Microsoft BT Stack The Bluetooth Master Configuration dialog box allows the filtering of which Bluetooth scanner to accept a connection from. With the default values (empty), the first detected device using the Serial Port Profile (SPP) will be selected. In most cases, this is correct. If you are using more than one SPP devices, change the values to select, for example, only scanners from a given model. 2-40 DAP Technologies Operating Your Tablet Computer NOTE: The bottom list on “BlueSoleil Installed” illustration presents all the devices using the Serial Port Profile, that are currently connected. Microsoft Bluetooth Stack BlueSoleil Installed Bluetooth Master Configuration When Using an Incompatible Bluetooth Stack In this situation, the Bluetooth Master Configuration page allows selecting the COM port to use to connect to the scanner.
