5 - 54 DS36X8 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide
Bluetooth Radio, Linking, and Batch Operation
The DS3678 digital scanner has a Bluetooth Class 1 radio which achieves a range of at least 135m / 440ft (open
air, line of sight). The actual range you achieve is influenced by the presence of other radios, shelving and wall
materials as well as which cradle is tested. The environments vary widely and often influence radio ranges.
When the digital scanner goes out of communications range to the base, it can be configured for Batch Mode (see
Batch Mode on page 5-42). The digital scanner has sufficient on board memory to store 500 barcodes of typical
size (UPC/EAN).
Setting Up an iOS or Android Product To Work With The Digital Scanner
Perform the following steps on each device to establish a link.
HID Keyboard Emulation
1. On the DS3678, scan Keyboard Emulation (HID) on page 5-5.
2. On an iOS/iPad/iPhone, select Settings > General > Bluetooth and turn Bluetooth On. Choose the DS3678
digital scanner from the list of discovered devices. A link should be established allowing scanning into any
application with keyboard entry.
3. On an Android, select Settings > Wireless & networks > Bluetooth (to turn Bluetooth on, if not already on).
Select Bluetooth Settings and choose the DS3678 digital scanner from the list of discovered devices. (The
DS3678 digital scanner normally displays as DS3678 - xxxxxx, where xxxxxx is the serial number.)
