Preparations before Using
Install the Battery
Ensure the battery contacts of the battery pack are facing the charging contacts inside the battery cavity.
Slide the battery pack into the battery cavity until hearing a click sound. Press the trigger to power on. The scanner will give 4 beeps when the battery pack is installed properly and if the battery pack still has power.
Secure the end cap with the screw provided.
Charge the Battery via Power Supply Unit
Choose the right plug and slot it into the power supply unit cavity until a “click” is heard. Then plug the power supply unit into the wall outlet.
Plug the DC power cord of power supply unit into the DC Jack of the cradle. The smart cradle will emit four beeps and the central indicator blinks blue once and side indicators lights red .
If you use the charging cradle, the central indicator lights blue .
Place the scanner on the cradle. The status indicator of scanner turns steady red if the battery is not fully charged. When the battery is fully charged, the status indicator will be steady green .
Please charge the new battery pack for 8 hours before its first use.
Charge the Battery via USB 3.0 Port
If USB 3.0
is available in your host device, both battery charging and regular operation can be supported by the USB bus power without using external power supply.
If only USB 2.0
is available in your host device, we recommend using external power supply as power source, because the power supplied from
USB 2.0 is not enough to support both battery charging and regular operation simultaneously. .

Decide Your Radio Link Mode
The FuzzyScan Bluetooth image scanner provides several radio link modes to communicate with most host devices. When the Bluetooth-enabled host device is not available, it can work with the smart cradle in PAIR mode
(peer-to-peer connection) or PICO mode (multiple connections) to provide a plug-and-play cordless migration of your existing non-Bluetooth-enabled host. Moreover, you can also use the scanner to work with Bluetooth-enabled host via SPP mode or HID mode.
When the radio link is disconnected, the scanner is capable of reconnecting automatically when it returns to the communication coverage. If you want to change the radio link mode, please scan the “ Uninstall ” command to reset the scanner to uninstall state.
PAIR Mode
If the Bluetooth device is not available in your existing system, PAIR mode is the simplest plug-and-play solution. In this mode, a smart cradle can only work with one scanner. The smart cradle not only provides the Bluetooth radio link with the scanner, but also offers the legacy cabled interfaces to the host device, including USB HID, USB COM and RS232 Serial.
PICO Mode
For the requirement of multiple connections, up to 7 scanners can be connected to one smart cradle concurrently. If you want to un-pair all scanners paired with the smart cradle, please press and hold the paging/reset key of the smart cradle for more than 5 seconds. If you just want to un-pair some of the paired scanners, please take those paired scanners to scan the “Uninstall” command one by one.
HID Mode
Through the most useful HID service, the scanner can work as a Bluetooth
Keyboard . In this mode, the scanner will be discoverable by the radio connection request issued by the remote host device.
SPP Master/Slave Mode
Through the standard SPP profile, the scanner can work as a Bluetooth
Serial Device . In SPP master mode, the scanner initiates the radio connection request to the remote slave device. In SPP slave mode, the scanner will be discoverable by the radio connection request issued by the remote host device. Once the SPP slave pairing process is completed, the radio link mode will be switched to SPP master automatically. This behavior will enable auto-reconnection feature when the connection is lost.
