USING LYNX™ BT SERIES READERS
LYNX™ BT
The Lynx™ BT (Lynx™ Bluetooth
®
) series reader is a wireless scanner
communicating in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and using the Serial Port Profile
(SPP).
The Lynx™ BT series reader, paired with an OM-1000 BT cradle, builds a
Cordless Reading System for the collection, decoding and transmission of
decoded data. OM-1000 BT can be connected to a Host PC through a USB,
RS232 or Wedge emulation cable. For details refer to the OM-1000 BT Quick
Reference Guide. OM-1000 BT also serves as a battery charger for Lynx™ BT.
Together with a Bluetooth

decoded data. The Bluetooth

(i.e. a Bluetooth
®
dongle).
®
compatible remote device, Lynx™ BT also builds a
®
compatible remote device can be a PC, PDA,
®
device or with external Bluetooth® adapter
Using this Quick Reference Manual, you can initialize and start using your
Lynx™ BT reader with its default values for communicating with a
Bluetooth
®
device. To change the default values or for details about
general configuration commands, refer to the Lynx™ BT Reference
Manual on the configuration CD-ROM.
Thanks to its aiming system, Lynx™ BT visually indicates the reading area and
since Lynx™ BT is a powerful omni-directional reader, the orientation of the
symbol is not important.
AIMING SYSTEM
The Lynx™ BT reader uses an intelligent aiming system similar to those on
cameras. By partially pulling the trigger, the aiming system indicates a field of
view to be positioned over the code:
When you pull the trigger completely a red beam illuminates the code. If the
aiming system is centered and the entire code is within the aiming system, you
will get a good read. The field of view changes size as you move the reader
closer or farther away from the code.
Aiming System

DATALOGIC
Linear barcode 2D Matrix symbol
Relative Size and Location of Aiming System Pattern
The field of view indicated by the aiming system will be smaller when the
Lynx™ BT is closer to the code and larger when it is farther from the code.
Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closer to
the unit. Symbologies with larger bars or elements (mil size) should be read
farther from the unit.
Successful reading is signaled by an audible tone plus a good-read green led.
If reading codes positioned on reflective surfaces, it may be
necessary to tilt the reader with respect to the code and/or set
the Camera Control parameters. For configuring the Camera
NOTE
Control parameters refer to the Lynx™ BT Reference Manual
available on the CD-ROM.
CHARGING THE BATTERIES
By placing the reader into the C-1000 battery charger or the OM-1000 BT cradle
it is possible to charge the Lynx™ BT batteries. Make sure the charging LED
goes on.
The LEDs positioned on the battery charger signal the charge status, as
described in the following table:
LED STATUS
Charging Red On = the battery charge is in progress.
Batt Full Green On = the battery is completely charged.

Charge completed
The batteries must be charged at a temperature ranging from 0°
to 45 °C (+32° to +113 °F).
NOTE
For further details about LED functioning refer to the C-1000 and OM-1000 BT
Quick Reference Guide.

CHANGING THE BATTERIES
To change the batteries of your reader, unscrew the
battery cover screw, replace the old battery pack with a
new one of the same type, then insert the cover onto the
handle and screw it back into place. (See the following
figures).
To turn on the reader, press the trigger.
