Auto-reconnect in Bluetooth Keyboard Emulation (HID Slave) Mode
In Bluetooth Keyboard Emulation (HID Slave) mode, select a re-conne ct option for when the device loses its
connection with a remote device:
•
Auto-reconnect on Bar Code Data: The device auto-reconnects when you scan a bar code. With this
option, a delay can occur when transmitting the first characters. The dev ice sounds a decode beep upon bar
code scan, followed by a connection, a page timeout, a rejection beep, or a transmission error beep. Select
this option to optimize battery life on the device and mobile device. Note tha t auto-reconnect does not occur
on rejection and cable unplug commands.
•
Auto-reconnect Immediately: When the device loses connection, it attempts to reco nnect. If a page timeout
occurs, the device attempts reconnect on a trigger pull. Select this option if th e device’s battery life is not an
issue and you do not want a delay to occur when the first bar code is transmitted . Note that auto-reconnect
does not occur on rejection and cable unplug commands.
•
Disable Auto-reconnect in Bluetooth Keyboard Emulation (HID Slave) Mode: When the device loses
connection, you must re-establish it manually.
