Pairing with an Android Device

HID Mode

---Newer Android devices can be used in HID mode.---

• To use the OPR3301 in HID (Keyboard) Mode, first scan the Bluetooth HID barcode (C02) followed by the Connect to PC (CNPC) barcode located on page 2 of the User Manual.
• Open the Bluetooth settings on your Android device.
• Scan the Make discoverable and connectable (+-DSCO-+) barcode on page 4 of the User Manual. Then use your Android device to scan for Bluetooth devices.
• When you select the OPR3301, you will either be provided with a pin code or be prompted to enter one. Use the numbers on page 6 of the User Manual to enter the pin you were provided (or the one you entered) followed by the END barcode.

SPP Mode

The OPR-3301 does support connecting to Android devices. To do so, the OPR-3301 must be set into "Connect to PC" and "Bluetooth-SPP" modes. Additionally, if the software on the phone-side is not capable of downloading and using serial data directly, it is also necessary to download and install OpticonRL and the OpticonRL Soft Keyboard from the Android Market(simply search for "OpticonRL").

The following instructions are intended to walk you through this process.

On your phone

• First, download OpticonRL from the Android Marketplace. Simply search for "OpticonRL." Install both OpticonRL and the Soft Keyboard.
• Next, go into your phone's settings, and navigate to your keyboard settings. Make sure that "OpticonRL Soft Keyboard" is enabled. Android automatically disables any soft keyboards you install as a security feature.

On the OPR-3301

• Print out this settings sheet from our Opticonfigure website.
• Scan all the barcodes on that sheet, from top to bottom.

You may notice that the last 6 barcodes assign a PIN code to the device. If you would like to assign your own PIN code, simply delete the last 5 barcodes(The 4 "Q4" barcodes and the "PINE" barcode), then search in Opticonfigure for "Q0" through "Q9." You can use each of those barcodes to assemble a numeric PIN code. For example, the PIN code "1234" would be "Q1," "Q2," "Q3," and "Q4." Make sure to add the "PINE" barcode to the end to tell the scanner when you're finished entering a PIN.

• Scan only the "+-DSCO-+" barcode on this sheet to make the OPR-3301 discoverable. Do not scan the "SET" or "END" barcodes this time.

At this point there should be a flashing blue light on the OPR-3301.

On your phone

• Open OpticonRL. Make sure "Enable Auto connect" is checked, and then select "Connect a device." In the menu that appears, choose "Scan for devices."
• Select your OPR3301 from the list. In a few seconds, your device will ask you for the PIN you chose above.
• To receive barcode scans at your cursor, simply change the input method of your phone from the default keyboard to the OpticonRL Soft Keyboard.
• You can now scan barcodes into your phone using your OPR-3301.

Troubleshooting

• If your device inserts nonprinting characters around your barcode data, try scanning the "SET," "CNPC," then "END" barcodes while it is connected to your phone. It will disconnect and reconnect. After that, the OPR-3301 will transmit data properly.
