Pairing a Bluetooth Scanner With an Intermec CK3X, CK71 or 70-Series Device Using Search

This procedure is for Intermec CK3X, CK71 or 70-Series Device Using Search.

The following processes assume use of the Intermec device as the initiator. If you would like to configure your scanner to be the initiator of the pairing, see the scanner’s documentation for more information. If you pair the scanner with the scanner as the initiator and assign the scanner to a serial port, you must enter or edit the value of the BarcodePort advanced setting to equal the serial port after you pair for the scanner and Intermec device to be properly paired.
  1. Make sure the scanner is on and is discoverable. See the scanner’s documentation for more information.
  2. On the Intermec device, tap Start > Settings.
  3. On the Intermec device, on the System tab of the Settings screen, tap Wireless Scanning.
  4. On the next screen, tap Add Device.
  5. Select if want to search for all available Bluetooth scanners, and tap Next.

    The device searches for all Bluetooth devices within range to which it can be paired. Once the search has completed, the device displays the Bluetooth devices found.

    If you do not see the scanner you want to pair within the list, deselect the Scanners Only checkbox. If the scanner is still not available within the list, ensure the scanner is on and is discoverable, and tap Search.

  10. Tap Finish.
    If you selected Data Collection, the scanner pairs with the Intermec device. If you selected Serial Port, the scanner does not pair with the Intermec device until you complete the next step.
  11. If you selected Serial Port as the connection method for the scanner, you must now enter or edit the value of the BarcodePort advanced setting to equal the serial port you assigned to the scanner, for example: BarcodePort=BSP3.
