About the Scanner

The RIDA DBT6400 by Datalogic is a Bluetooth Companion reader (2D Imager) that enables real-time barcode scanning into any Bluetooth ready device including Android, iOS and Windows.
Thanks to its extremely reduced size, the DBT6400 fits easily into a pocket and is the ideal choice for applications like field sales and service, inventory man agement, retail point-of-sale (POS), Healthcare and many more.
The attractive design and the light weight that characterize the DBT6400 allow the scanner to be easily worn around the user’s neck with the lanyard supplied or clipped in a pocket.
Datalogic’s exclusive patented ‘Green Spot’ for good read feedback helps to improve productivity in noisy environments or in situations where silence is required.
The RIDA DBT6400 has several customizable features:
the reader's attractive illumination changes color to indicate its status and can be personalized by the user.
the option to use personal jingles (a short userdefined tune uploaded via Datalogic Aladdin™ configuration software) instead of the normal beep tone.
The RIDA DBT6400 can be used with his Bluetooth base station BC6020. The base station can be used for placement of the DBT6400 allowing for charging and Host wired connection.

Introduction

Using the RIDA DBT6400

The RIDA DBT6400 normally functions by capturing and decoding codes. The aiming system is activated on trigger pull and indicates the center of the field of view which should be positioned over the bar code:
Aiming System
Product Reference Guide 1
Introduction
Linear bar code
2D Matrix symbol
Relative Size and Location of Aiming System Pattern
A beam illuminates the label. The projected pattern of the aiming system will be smaller when the reader is closer to the bar 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.
If the aiming system is centered you will get a good read. Successful reading is signaled by an audible tone plus a good read green spot LED indicator.

Unpacking

Check carefully to ensure the scanner and any cables or accessories ordered are present and undamaged. If any damage occurred during shipment, contact Technical Support on page 4.
KEEP THE PACKAGING. Should the unit ever require service, it should be re
turned in its original shipping container.

Setting Up the Reader

Follow the steps below to connect and get your reader up and communicating with its Host.
1. Configure the Base Station (if available)
2. Charge the Batteries (see " Charging the Batteries" on page 7).
3. Link to a Host (see " Linking to a Host" on page 9) or to the Base Station (if available - see " Linking to a Base Station" on page 11).

The Base Station can be powered up by an external power supply or by a Host via the micro USB Cable. Both the power cable and the micro USB cable can be connected at the same time on the Base; in this case, USB connection is used for data exchange with the Host, while power is supplied from external power sup­ply.
The figure below shows how to connect the Base Station to a terminal PC or to another Host device.

Using the BC6020 Base Station

LEDs on BC6020 Base Station provide information about the Base as well as the battery charging status, as shown in the figure below.
The behaviour and meaning of the LEDs are summarized in Table 1:

Charging the Batteries

Before using the DBT6400 for the first time, it is necessary to charge the bat­tery.
The battery can be charged by the micro-USB connector. You can use the provided USB cable for this purpose.
.
Alternatively, the battery can be charged using:
Green On = the battery is completely charged.
connecting the reader directly to a Host through
1. the Base Station BC6020.
2. the charging-only cradle CHR-DBT60, available as an optional.
To charge the battery with the Base Station, insert the reader into the base. When the scanner detects the base it will sound to indicate the correct place­ment.
When in charge, the side LEDs on the reade
r indicate the status of the battery.
If the battery is very depleted, the reader could stay in a precharge phase with the top led blinking red. This phase automatically ends when the battery charge is enough to power up the reader, in case the battery charging is not com­pleted.
.
Before using the Battery, read “Battery Safety” in the Safety and Regulatory Addendum. Datalogic recommends annual replacement of rechargeable battery packs to ensure maximum performance.

The RIDA DBT6400 is equipped with Bluetooth® Wireless Technology. To set up the scanner for communication with a Host the user shall select the Profile Mode.
The available Profile Mode for standard Bluetooth are:
Bluetooth Serial Port Profile (SPP)
Bluetooth HID Profile (default)
Scan one of the following barcodes to select the desired Profile Mode:

NOTE
After reading the profile label t

Bluetooth Unpairing

To unpair the reader and the Host, press and hold the Link button until the blue LED turns off.
Alternatively, read the following unlink label.
Before pairing to another Host, the reader mu
st be unpaired from the previous.
NOTE

Bluetooth Passkey Request

During the pairing process, based on Host and Reader security settings, you may need to enter a passkey.
If you let the Host generate the passkey, simply enter the required code by
nning the corresponding bar codes for alphanumeric entry. Complete by
sca scanning the End label. To restart the entering of the passkey, read the Restart label.
If, alternatively, you choose to enter on the Host the passkey proposed by the

Linking to a Host in Initiator Mode

The reader can optionally be linked to a host as initiator (also called Client Mode or Master Mode). This kind of link can be done in all the available profiles.
To do this, follow these steps:
1. Ensure the host is powered and has the Bluetooth feature enable.
2. Identify the Bluetooth address i
n the Host/adapter device.
3. Create a Link label that contains the address of the Host/adapter. The link abel is a Code 128 function 3 label having the following format for SPP
l connection:
<FN3 char>LnkB<12 character Bluetooth address> And the following format for HID connection: <FN3 char>LnkHid<12 character Bluetooth address>
4. Scan the link label you created in step 3.
5. Complete the procedure to establish the connection. For the SPP mode you
eed to open the associated incoming COM port.

Example: if you want to connect to a tablet wi
th BT Address 00:1A:7D:DA:71:13
the label content in order to connect in SPP profile is: <FN3 char>LnkB001A7DDA7113 To connect in HID profile: <FN3 char>LnkHid001A7DDA7113.
To easily switch between different Host is suggested to keep default secu­rity level.
NOTE
Note: Some Host cannot accept connection using HID profile in initiator mode.
NOTE
Linking to a Base Station
The RIDA DBT6400 can be used paired with its Base Station. The data received over the RF link will be exchanged with the Host using the USB interface of the Base Station. In this case, before configuring the interface, it is necessary to link the scanner to the Base Station.
To link the handheld and the base, press the Scan button to wake up the reader
d then insert the reader into the Base station. A beep will indicate the suc-
an cessful pairing.
If the reader was previously linked to another base, you must first scan the Unlink bar
