Chapter 5 - Connecting and Configuring the SG20B Scanner in Direct Connection validate. The blue Intermec Ready-to-Work indicator starts blinking rapidly, indicating that the scanner is awaiting acknowledgement. 8 Pull the trigger. Your scanner automatically connects to the host: it emits a series of beeps from low to high, and the blue Intermec Ready-to-Work indicator turns solid blue. SPP Bluetooth Device Connection The SPP profile allows your SG20B to use the Bluetooth link as a serial port to communicate with your host device. If you are using an application working with serial ports, you do not need to modify it to collect data with the SG20B. You can connect your scanner to your host by initiating the Bluetooth connection either from your SG20B scanner (incoming connection) or from your host (outgoing connection): • A scanner-initiated connection requires reading a Bluetooth association bar code then opening the incoming port from an application such as a terminal emulation program. The advantage of this method is that the scanner automatically tries to reconnect to the host each time the connection is lost. • A host-initiated connection requires opening the outgoing port from an application such as EasySet or a terminal emulation program. The advantage of this method is that no Bluetooth association bar code is required but if the connection with the host is lost, you have to follow the connection procedure again. Before trying to pair or connect your scanner, make sure: • it is not already trying to establish a Bluetooth connection. If so, the blue Intermec Ready-to-Work indicator blinks; read the Bluetooth device disconnect bar code. 54 SG20B Cordless Scanner + Bluetooth Base Station User's Guide

SPP Bluetooth Device Connection
The SPP profile allows your SG20B to use the Bluetooth link as a
serial port to communicate with your host device. If you are using an
application working with serial ports, you do not need to modify it to
collect data with the SG20B.
You can connect your scanner to your host by initiating the Bluetooth
connection either from your SG20B scanner (
incoming
connection) or
from your host (
outgoing
connection):
•
A scanner-initiated connection requires reading a Bluetooth
association bar code then opening the incoming port from an
application such as a terminal emulation program.
The advantage of this method is that the scanner automatically
tries to reconnect to the host each time the connection is lost.
•
A host-initiated connection requires opening the outgoing port
from an application such as EasySet or a terminal emulation
program.
The advantage of this method is that no Bluetooth association bar
code is required but if the connection with the host is lost, you
have to follow the connection procedure again.
Before trying to pair or connect your scanner, make sure:
•
it is not already trying to establish a Bluetooth connection. If so,
the blue Intermec Ready-to-Work indicator blinks; read the
Bluetooth device disconnect bar code.
