Locate the bar code label, similar to the sample shown above, attached to the MX9. The label is the Bluetooth address identifier for the MX9.

The mobile Bluetooth scanner / imager requires this information before discovering, pairing, connecting or disconnecting can occur.

The MX9 Bluetooth address identifier label should be protected from damage (rips, tears, spills, soiling, erasure, etc.) at all times. It may be required when pairing, connecting, and disconnecting new Bluetooth bar code readers.

If the MX9 has a Bluetooth address bar code label, follow these steps:

1.Scan the Bluetooth address bar code label, attached to the MX9, with the Bluetooth mobile scanner.

2.If this is the first time the Bluetooth scanner has scanned the MX9 Bluetooth label, the devices are paired. See Bluetooth Reader Beep and LED Indications (page 7-13). If the devices do not pair successfully, go to the next step.
