Bluetooth Friendly Name
You can set a meaning ful name for the scann er that appears in the applicatio n during device discovery. The default
name is the scanner name followed by its ser ial number, e.g., LS3578 123456789ABCDEF. Scanning Set Defaults
reverts the scanner to this name; use custom defaults to maintain the user-programmed name through a Set
Defaults operation.
To set a new Bluetooth Friendly Name, scan the following bar code, then scan up to 23 characters from Appendix
E, Alphanumeric Bar Codes. If the name cont ains less than 23 ch aracters, scan En d of Message on p age E-7 af ter
entering the name.
Discoverable Mode
Select a discoverable mode base d on the device initiating discovery:
•
Select General Discoverable Mode when initiating connection from a PC.
•
Select Limited Discoverable Mode when initiating connection from a mobile device (e.g., Motorola Q), and
the device does not appea r in General Discoverable Mo de. Note that it can t ake longer to discover the device
in this mode.
The device remains in L imited Discoverable Mode for 30 seconds, and green LEDs flash while in this mode.
It is then non-discoverable. To re-active Limited Discoverable Mode, press the trigger.
NOTE If your application allows you to set a device name, this takes precedence over the Bluetooth Friendly
Name.
