MS3590 Mobile Scanner Quick Guide
A standard packing includes a mobile scanner, a USB cable and a CD (containing software
and electrical manuals). Optional accessory includes a Bluetooth USB adapter BA2110
which supports reliable wireless data transmission and an AC/DC adaptor for battery charge.
The term “scanner” as used in this guide denotes the mobile scanner.
Use dry and soft cloth to clean the scanner.
Effective communication range: The communication distance is 30 meters under the
condition of temperature at 27 degrees Celsius, sunny day, and visibility of 5 kilometers.
Natural surroundings significantly affect the communication distance in practice. The
distance drops quickly in the rainy, high-humidity, or heavy haze day; radio interference also
shortens the communication distance.
Bluetooth uses the 2.4 GHz ISM frequency band. The WLAN also uses the same one. So the
coexistence of the scanner and WLAN may cause a strong decline in the effective
communication range.
The scanner provides a variety of wireless communication modes, and supports batch data
mode and U disk mode. It is suggested to read the user manual in details before use.

HID Keyboard
SPP Master/Slave
The scanner connects to the PC via Bluetooth and behaves like a
keyboard.
The scanner connects to the PC via Bluetooth and behaves like there is a
serial connection. A master SPP mainly differs from a slave one in the
process of connection and they are identical in the process of use in terms
of function. Note: Bluetooth-enabled smart phones and PDAs can host
the scanner in general. However, ordinary mobile phones with Bluetooth
function can not be a host of the scanner because in most cases neither
HID nor SPP profile is supported by them.
Configure Bluetooth HID keyboard profile communication
Note: Make sure the Bluetooth module of the scanner is powered on (blue LED is on) and the
selected profile is System SettingBluetoothBT HID Keyboard.
Step 1: Plug a Bluetooth USB adapter into the USB port of the PC.
Step 2: Double-click the Bluetooth icon at the right bottom corner on Windows XP (
