IMPORTANT: Some devices may require scanning a PIN to connect. If so, a PIN displays on the device. To
enter the required PIN, scan the bar code, Variable PIN Code on page 59 then re-attempt connection. When a
beep sounds, indicating the RS6000 is waiting for PIN entry, scan the PIN using the Alphanumeric and Numeric
Bar Codes on page 323. Incorrect scanned entries can be deleted by scanning Cancel on page 324.
For more information, see Variable PIN Code on page 59.
NOTE: For best user experience, it is recommend using Secure Simple Pairing (SSP). Windows 7 SP1 supports
Bluetooth 2.1 and as such, supports SSP.
SSP reduces the number of steps to minimal or none when compared to legacy Bluetooth pairing.
If the host computer does not include an integrated Bluetooth module, use a USB Bluetooth dongle.
Use off-the-shelf dongle that supports Bluetooth v2.1 for effortless pairing in SSP.
