Save Settings 1.8 - Bluetooth Radio Operation 1.8.1 - Introduction The CR2500 features a Bluetooth® wireless radio. The radio allows for point-to-point wireless communication with other Bluetooth devices that support serial port protocol (SPP). If keyboard entry is necessary, Code XML Router will need to be installed. The following guide will give you general instructions on connecting your CR2500 to a desktop or laptop computer with a Bluetooth radio. Connecting With A QuickConnect Code The easiest way to connect to a Bluetooth device is to visit the Code website and create a QuickConnect Code that is specifi c to your device (Figure 1.22). This code will link your CR2500 directly to the desired Bluetooth device. To create a QuickConnect Code, you will need to know the Bluetooth address (often referred to as the BD_ADDR) of that device. You can usually fi nd the 12-character Bluetooth address somewhere on the device near the device’s serial number (see Figure 1.23). If you purchased a CodeXML Bluetooth Modem or a Belkin® Bluetooth adapter from Code or from an authorized distributor, a QuickConnect Code was included. If you bought a Bluetooth adapter separately and wish to create a QuickConnect Code, please visit Code’s web site at: http://www.codecorp.com/bdaddr.php. Important Note: You will need to locate the Communications (COM) Port assigned to the Bluetooth serial port protocol. While installing the Bluetooth Confi guration Manager Software that was included with your Bluetooth adapter, make sure to note the Communications (COM) Port number the software assigned for the adapter (e.g., COM 10). This is the COM Port through which the CR2500 will connect. To connect your reader, use the following steps: 1. Power on the CR2500 reader by pressing one of the red buttons for one second to power on the reader. 2. Scan the Reset to RF Factory Defaults Code (M684_01). 3. Scan the Quick Connect Code you receieved or created from Code’s website. 4. The CR2500 will automatically connect to the computer. By default, the CR2500 will beep once after it connects and beep four times in a row if it did not connect. 5. Scan the Save Settings Code (M188_02) if you want to save the wireless connection settings to the CR2500 so that the CR2500 will automatically try to connect wirelessly the next time it is powered on. Example: Reset to RF Factory Defaults QuickConnect Save Settings Figure 1.22 Figure 1.23

Save Settings Radio Range and Transferring Data The CR2500 radio is a Class 1 device. If connected to another Class 1 device the reader has roughly a 100 meter (300 feet) line of sight operating range. If connecting to a Class 2 or Class 3 device, the operating range may drop to match the lower range. Once a reader is connected, a serial application must be opened (HyperTerminal) unless Code XML Router is installed. When the CR2500 detects the radio is out of range, the CR2500 will store data on the reader’s non-volatile memory. The reader will continue to try and send data until radio is back in range. Once the data is sent the data will be erased from the reader’s memory. The reader will continue to try and connect until it has reached the programmable radio time out setting. The CR2500 Bluetooth protocol allows for two (2) forms of communication: 1. Standard Bluetooth Reliability Mode (previously One Way Mode) - Communication between the reader and host, that does not require host acknowledgement. This mode is only recommended when connecting to a device well within its specifi ed range or if connecting to a simple device (e.g., printer). There are two settings in this mode: • Max Range (Default) - Greater range but data reliability is lower • Max Reliability - Limits range but reliability is improved RF Standard Bluetooth RF Standard Bluetooth Reliability Mode (Max Range) Reliablility Mode (Max Reliability) Note: One Way Mode doesn’t guarantee data integrity, and you may have data loss when operating in the fringes of radio range or in the presence of radio interference. 2. Additional Bluetooth Reliability Mode (previously Two Way Mode) - This mode requires the implementation of software at the application level.* The reader receives confi rmation via packet protocol verifi cation and is 100% reliable. Data will be automatically retransmitted if necessary. RF Additional Bluetooth Reliability Mode * Note: You will need either Code XML Router Software or a Code XML Bluetooth Modem on the PC side to use the Additional Bluetooth Reliability Mode. If you are using the CodeXML Bluetooth Modem, you must use RF Additional Bluetooth Reliability Mode. 1.8 - Bluetooth Radio Operation (continued)

Save Settings Permanently Establishing a Connection Scan the Save Settings Code at the bottom of the page to make the RF settings (including which device to connect to) permanent on the reader: Disconnecting from the Device You may force disconnection by reading the disconnect code below (The CR2500 may not appear disconnected in the slave Bluetooth connection manager for 10 – 15 seconds after the command is issued). The CR2500 will also disconnect after 90 seconds of inactivity (Note: You may change the radio sleep time out setting; however, it may reduce battery life). Bluetooth Disconnect Reconnecting to the Device If the device is saved in RF mode and has a save connection (save was performed while connected) it will automatically reconnect when: 1. CR2500 is powered up 2. CR2500 wakes from sleep mode 3. CR2500 reads another code 1.8.2 - Bluetooth Radio Auto Connect Auto Connect: After coming out of sleep mode or after powering up the CR2500 tries to auto connect with the last Bluetooth radio with which it was connected if the steps (previous) were followed (see Section 1.7.1 - Connecting with a Quick Connect Code). You may also re-connect by scanning a QuickConnect code. Scan the following codes to enable or disable Auto Connect feature for the Bluetooth radio: Bluetooth Radio Bluetooth Radio Auto Connect: On (Default) Auto Connect: Off 1.8.3 - Bluetooth Radio Auto Disconnect Auto Disconnect: This feature is used when multiple CR2500 readers are connecting to the same Bluetooth Radio. By enabling Auto Disconnect the CR2500 radio disconnects after each data transmission, allowing other radios to connect. Scan the following codes to enable or disable Auto Disconnect feature for the Bluetooth radio: Bluetooth Radio Bluetooth Radio Auto Disconnect: On Auto Disconnect: Off (Default) Note: Auto Connect should always be set to “On” if Auto Disconnect is set to “On”. Otherwise the QuickConnect code would need to be re-scanned after every disconnect. 1.8 - Bluetooth Radio Operation (continued)

Save Settings 1.8.4 - Bluetooth Radio Time Out Settings Scan the following codes to set the period of time before the Bluetooth Radio will go into sleep mode due to inactivity: Note: Increasing the time before the reader will time out will decrease battery life. 90 Seconds (Default) 5 Minutes 10 Minutes 15 Minutes 30 Minutes 1 Hour 2 Hours 1.8.5 - Bluetooth Radio Out of Range Notifi cation Settings Scan the following codes to enable a beep or vibrate notifi cation when the radio goes out of range: Bluetooth - Out of Range Bluetooth - Out of Range Beep: On Notify with Vibrate: On Bluetooth - Out of Range Bluetooth - Out of Range Vibrate & Beep: On Vibrate and/or Beep: Off (Default) Note: This feature may also be utilized to remind users they are carrying a reader and help prevent users from walking away with a reader Bluetooth radio. If the reader is saved in the proper RF communication mode, enabling this setting will allow the reader to automatically save the last device to which it was connected, removing the need to scan the save setting after scanning the QuickConnect code. Enable Auto Save Disable Auto Save (Default) 1.8.6 - Auto Save Last Bluetooth Address

Save Settings 1.8.7 - Confi guration for Belkin Bluetooth Manager Software (Version 1.4.2.10) In this version of the Belkin Bluetooth Manager software, you must disable the authentication feature to connect a CR2500.

Save Settings 1.9 - Targeting and Reading Techniques The CR2500 utilizes digital camera technology to take a picture of a symbol. Once an image is captured, the CR2500 utilizes advanced decoding algorithms to extract data from the captured image. The CR2500 is available as a palm-held reader or users may purchase a handle (available in various types). The palm held reader features left and right triggers. These triggers may be programmed to perform various features. The reader is shipped with the left trigger and right trigger functioning as a decode symbol command. Each handle has a trigger on the grip. The two triggers on the top of the reader also work when the handle is attached Figure 1.24). To read a bar code with the CR2500: 1. The CR2500 features omnidirectional decoding. Center the symbol in any orientation within the targeting line pattern (fi gure 1.25). Note: The CR2500 can read a bar code that is not centered or aligned; however, the CR2500 performs best when a code is aligned. If two (2) bar codes are within the imagers decode zone, the CR2500 will decode the symbol closest to the center of the targeting line. 2. The CR2500 was developed to decode both very small 2-dimensional symbols and larger 1-dimensional symbols. The reader has an innovative dual fi eld decode zone. The CR2500 DECODES ONLY THE WIDE FIELD BY DEFAULT. By default, the reader will focus on wide fi eld for larger codes (optimal focal point 3.3 inches). The reader can be programmed to focus on high density for smaller codes (optimal focal point is 3.3 inches). 3. Hold the CR2500 still - DO NOT SWIPE OR MOVE THE READER. Press the trigger until the CR2500 beeps, indicating the code has been successfully decoded. 4. The reader may be optimized to your specifi c environment by scanning codes in Chapter 2.

Save Settings 1.10 - Imager Field Selection and Resolution The CR2500’s dual fi eld optical system may be modifi ed based on your scanning environment. The 1.3 Million Pixel imager is divided into wide fi eld and high density decode zones. In each zone the resolution is 1024 x 640 pixels (see Figure 1.26). If only the high density fi eld is used (small symbols), the wide fi eld image can be ignored. If only the wide fi eld is used (large symbols), the high density fi eld can be ignored. Further optimization may be obtained by "windowing" the fi eld to a smaller area. BY DEFAULT, THE CR2500 DECODES ONLY THE WIDE FIELD.

The Readability Index is specifi c to the CR2500, and should not be confused with a verifi cation quality measurement. The Readability Index is a blend of information obtained from the internal operations of the decoding algorithm pertaining to contrast, symbology construct, error detection, forward error correction (if applicable), and other symbology-specifi c characteristics. The Readability Index is a score on a scale of 01 (very poor) to 100 (very readable). Due to differences based on motion, skew, refl ection, focus, and ambient lighting, the Readability Index on the same symbol may vary somewhat from read to read. However, a poor contrast or damaged symbol will score lower than a high contrast undamaged symbol. The Readability Index can be used as a quick check on the reliability of label generation or marking systems. When used in conjunction with the CR2500 stand (or fi xed mount positioning) which fi xes the distance from the reader to the symbol, and constant ambient light, the Readability Index provides a symbol quality assurance tool and check point for feedback to an overall label or marking quality control system. The Readability Index is enabled by fi rst reading a CodeXML rule into the permanent CR2500 Memory: Each time a data symbol is read, the index will be output, followed by a comma, (,) followed by the decoded data. The reader will store the rule and reset, but will not output the Readability Index until the Readability Index Output Enable code is read. The Reader will continue to output the Readability Index upon every read until disabled, either by reset or by reading the Readability Index Output Disable code.

The values of each of the following codes are the percent tolerance based on the size of the barcode. As the targeting tolerance becomes smaller the targeting green LED must be more centered in the symbol being read. Conversely, as the targeting tolerance gets larger there is less precision needed with the green LED. If there is more than one decodable code in the fi eld of the, the symbol closest to the targeting green LED will be decoded.

Save Settings 5.2 - Windowing If only one size of bar code is being scanned in an application, the CR2500 can be optimized to reduce processing time by adjusting the viewing area within the fi eld of view of the image. By reducing the vertical window value of the imager to 200 pixels, 1-D codes are processed more quickly. Because only a horizontal strip of a 1-D code is needed to be decoded, using a narrow strip of the imager is all that is needed. The area above and below the 200 pixels, which is always in the center of the imager, is ignored. This approach reduces the number of pixels that must be processed. Windowing can improve the processing time of 1D and 2D codes. You may negatively impact reader performance if the window size is too small. If it is necessary to have the reader farther away than normal to read the code, the window may be too small. Reading other types of codes, especially large codes, may be diffi cult while using this setting. SAMPLE SAMPLE Medium Code Windowing SAMPLE Small Code Windowing
