Chapter 1 — About the SF61B Cordless Scanner

4 SF61 Cordless Scanner User’s Guide

Make sure you fully charge the battery before you start to use the

SF61B. Should a problem arise with the battery, you can replace it (see

Replace the Battery of the SF61B in Chapter 4).

To charge the scanner’s battery

Place the SF61B in a charger bay or connect it to the vehicle power

adapter. The scanner beeps twice (two-tone beep) and the status light

shows the charge status:

• a fixed red light indicates "scanner charging"

• a fixed green light indicates "scanner fully charged"

SF61B with the 1-Bay Charger

It takes approximately 3 hours to charge a fully discharged battery.

Battery Charge Status during Operation

During SF61B operation, the status light blinks red when the battery

charge is less than 20% to indicate that you should charge the battery.

Note: Charging time is longer in temperatures of 35° C/95° F and

higher.

Chapter 1 — About the SF61B Cordless Scanner

SF61 Cordless Scanner User’s Guide 5

Understand Bluetooth Terms

The following terms are used in this User Guide:

Pairing: To be able to connect and exchange data with a Bluetooth

host device, your Bluetooth product must be "paired" with that

device. The way you authorize the pairing to take place depends on

the type of Bluetooth host device you are pairing with - see Chapter 2,

Connect the SF61B, for more details.

If your Bluetooth product and your Bluetooth host device are paired

but, for some reason, the connection cannot be established (your

product is out of range, one or both devices have been switched

off, ...), the pairing association is not lost and the devices can

communicate again when they are switched on and in range.

Discoverable: Your Bluetooth product is not yet paired with a

Bluetooth host device but it can be "seen" by that device (the

Bluetooth host device may also be able to "see" other Bluetooth

products that are nearby).

When your Bluetooth product is trying to connect or is connected to

a Bluetooth host device, it is no longer discoverable.

HID and SPP: Intermec Bluetooth scanners can use two specific

Bluetooth profiles to communicate with Bluetooth-enabled host

devices:

• HID: When you use the HID (Human Interface Device) profile,

your scanner is recognized as a keyboard by the host. Connection

information is stored so that if the scanner loses the connection

(out of range, low battery, etc.), it will try to reconnect as soon as

this becomes possible again (back into range, charged battery...).

No specific software is needed to collect data using the HID

profile (this is not the case if you use the SPP profile).

• SPP: The SPP profile (Serial Port Profile) allows your scanner to

communicate with the host device through the Bluetooth link as if

it were a serial port. In this way, your scanner is immediately

compatible with data management applications that collect data

through a serial port.

Chapter 1 — About the SF61B Cordless Scanner

Default settings and custom settings

The product behavior described in this manual corresponds to the

default settings of your SF61B cordless scanner. Most of these

settings can be customized using EasySet, the Intermec scanner setup

software.

EasySet provides the full range of setup options for your SF61B (see

Configure Your Scanner with EasySet in Chapter 3 for details on

how to install and use EasySet).

In this Manual and in EasySet, default settings are indicated by "(*)"

after the name of the default setup command.

Chapter 1 — About the SF61B Cordless Scanner

SF61 Cordless Scanner User’s Guide 7

Turn On the SF61B

To turn the scanner on, press and release the scan button. The SF61B

beeps twice and vibrates at power-up (default behavior).

If your scanner connects or reconnects to a Bluetooth host device /

application, it emits a series of beeps from low to high and the blue

Intermec Ready-to-Work indicator turns solid blue (default scanner

behavior).

Pair with a Bluetooth Host Device

If your SF61B is discoverable (not connecting or not already

connected to a Bluetooth host) you can pair it with a Bluetooth host

device and establish a Bluetooth connection between the two devices

(see Chapter 2, Connect the SF61B).

Connect on Power-Up

While the scanner is waiting for a connection, the blue Intermec

Ready-To-Work LED blinks slowly.

Host-Initiated (Outgoing) SPP Connection

If your scanner is paired with a Bluetooth host device and was

connected when it powered down, you will have to re-establish the

connection manually when it powers up again.

After 5 minutes of inactivity (default behavior, modifiable), it will

power down if the connection is not established.

All Other Connection Types

If your scanner is paired with a Bluetooth host device and was

connected when it powered down, it will automatically try to

reconnect at power-up.

After 5 minutes of inactivity (default behavior, modifiable), it will

power down if the connection is not established.

Note: Being discoverable is the default behavior of the SF61B, but you

can use EasySet to make your product not discoverable if you wish

(Interface > Bluetooth > Discoverable > Not discoverable).

Chapter 1 — About the SF61B Cordless Scanner

8 SF61 Cordless Scanner User’s Guide

Inactivity Shutdown Period

By default the SF61B shuts down after a period of inactivity of 1 hour

if it is connected to a Bluetooth host and after 5 minutes of inactivity

if it is not connected.

You can use EasySet to modify these inactivity timeouts (Operating

settings > Scanning / Triggering > Power down).

Chapter 1 — About the SF61B Cordless Scanner

SF61 Cordless Scanner User’s Guide 9

Understand the SF61B Behavior

The SF61B uses lights, beeps and vibrations to indicate if a bar code

has been successfully decoded.

Blue Intermec-Ready-to-Work Indicator

The blue Intermec Ready-to-Work indicator™ LED gives information

about the Bluetooth connection. When a connection has been

established the light is always on (blue) unless the scanner is docked

in a charger (in this case the LED displays a green or red battery

charge indication even though the Bluetooth connection is still

active).

When using your scanner to scan bar codes (blue light on) your

scanner will also flash status information using green or red lights.

See the Status Light information in the next section.

Note: The SF61B has a different behavior (lights, beeps, vibrate alert)

to its predecessor, the SF51. If you prefer to use the beep and LED

mode of the SF51, you can use EasySet to activate the legacy mode

(Operating settings > Beeps / LEDs > Beep and LED mode >

Status Light

The status light flashes green or red to indicate the status of the

scanner and/or battery. Status information is sometimes shown even

if the Intermec Ready-to-Work Indicator is on. This way the scanner

can communicate more than one type of information at the same

time.

For example while the blue LED is on to show that there is a

Bluetooth connection, the scanner will flash green when you have

successfully scanned and transmitted a bar code.

Note: The following tables show the default behavior of the status

light, you can use EasySet to modify this behavior if you wish

(Operating settings > Beeps / LEDs).

Scan Bar Codes

The SF61B1D contains a 1D linear imager and the SF61B2D and

SF61BHP contain 2D area imagers to scan bar code data. The scanner

model you are using and the type of bar code you are decoding

determine the way you scan the bar code.

When you unpack the SF61B, the following bar code symbologies are

enabled by default:

All models (1D and 2D)

• Code 39 (*)

• Code 128 / GS1-128 (*)

• EAN/UPC (*)

2D models only

• Data Matrix (*)

• PDF417 (*)

• QR Code (*)

Before you can scan bar codes and send data to your data collection

application, you need to establish a Bluetooth connection between

your SF61B and your Bluetooth host device. If your scanner is not

connected it will emit an error beep when scanning bar codes. For

more information about establishing a Bluetooth connection, see

Chapter 2, Connect the SF61B, for more details.

For the SF61BHP do not look directly into the window area or at

a reflection of the laser beam while the scanner is scanning. Long-

term exposure to the laser beam can damage your vision.

Note: Use EasySet to enable and configure other symbologies (you

will find them in the Symbologies section of the EasySet commands

window).

See Configure Your Scanner with EasySet in Chapter 3 for details

on how to use EasySet.

SF61 Cordless Scanner User’s Guide 31

Connect the SF61B to Other Bluetooth Devices

Bluetooth Device Profile

Choose the appropriate Bluetooth profile to communicate with your

host device (a Bluetooth-enabled PC for example) depending on the

requirements of your data management application:

• HID (Human Interface Device Profile) emulates keyboard data

entry

• SPP (Serial Port Profile) emulates data acquisition through a

virtual COM port.

HID Bluetooth Profile

With the HID (Human Interface Device) profile, your SF61B is

recognized as a keyboard. No specific software is needed to collect

data using the HID profile (this is not the case if you use the SPP

profile).

When you pair using the HID profile, you connect straight away

directly with the host.

SPP Bluetooth Profile

The SPP profile (

Serial Port Profile

) allows your SF61B to communicate

with the host device as if the Bluetooth link was a serial port. In this

way, your SF61B is immediately compatible with data management

applications that collect data through a serial port.

When you pair using the SPP profile, you do not connect straight

away with the host, you must then connect with your host application

either through an Outgoing (host-initiated) SPP connection or

through an Incoming (scanner-initiated) SPP connection.

Bluetooth Connections

You can connect to your Bluetooth device using one of the following

Bluetooth connections:

• HID connection (host initiated)

• SPP outgoing connection (host initiated)

• SPP incoming connection (scanner initiated)

Chapter 2 — Connect the SF61B

32 SF61 Cordless Scanner User’s Guide

This section will provide the procedure for each type of connection.

HID Connection

When connected in HID, connection information is stored, meaning

that if the scanner loses the connection (out of range, low battery,

etc.), it will try to reconnect as soon as possible (back into range,

charged battery, etc.).

To connect in HID device profile

1 Before trying to pair and connect your scanner, make sure that:

• the scanner is not already trying to establish a Bluetooth

connection (blinking blue Intermec Ready-to-Work indicator),

in this case read the Bluetooth Device Disconnect bar code:

Bluetooth Device Disconnect

• the scanner is not already paired with your Bluetooth device

using another profile, in this case remove it from your host’s

list of Bluetooth devices

• your host is equipped for Bluetooth communication

• the scanner is turned on (if not pull the trigger to turn it on)

2 Scan the HID Bluetooth device profile configuration code:

Bluetooth device profile - HID

3 Pair the scanner with your device.

Note: To connect up to EasySet, Intermec’s scanner setup software,

running on a Windows PC you can use either of the following:

• a HID Bluetooth connection

• a host-initiated (Outgoing) SPP Bluetooth connection

See Configure Your Scanner with EasySet in Chapter 3 for details

on how to install and use EasySet.

• Double-click the Bluetooth icon in the Windows system tray

(or equivalent). The Bluetooth Devices window showing the

current list of paired devices is displayed.

• Click Add a device or the equivalent command depending on

your operating system.

The host searches for all active Bluetooth devices within range.

Your SF61B scanner appears in the Bluetooth device list with

the name SF61B - BDA, where BDA is the scanner’s Bluetooth

Device Address (by default - name can be changed).

• Select your scanner in the list and click Next (or the equivalent

command).

Note: If a pairing code is requested, click Enter the device’s

pairing code (or the equivalent command), enter the scanner’s

pairing code (the default Intermec Bluetooth pairing code is

“0000”) and confirm.

Your SF61B scanner is now displayed in the host PC’s list of

paired devices.

After a successful pairing the scanner is automatically connected

to the host - you hear the “connection successful” beep sequence

(series of beeps from low to high) and see the Intermec Ready-to-

Work indicator (continuous blue by default).

Test Your HID Connection With the Host

Start a simple data acquisition software such as Microsoft® Notepad

and read the following test code to make sure your connection is

working correctly:

Code 39 Test Bar Code

*123456*

Note: If the scanner does not appear in the list, it might already

necessary, manually remove the scanner from the list

SPP Outgoing Connection (Host Initiated)

A host-initiated (Outgoing) SPP connection requires opening the

Outgoing virtual COM port from your host application (EasySet or a

terminal emulation program for example).

The advantage of this method is that no Bluetooth association bar

code is required. However, if the connection with the host application

is lost, you must reconnect by re-opening the COM port (s.

To connect in SPP device profile—outgoing connection

Basic Setup with Configuration Bar Codes

This section provides configuration bar codes for a basic setup of your

scanner. Many more configuration options are available with EasySet

or with your Intermec computer, see Configure Your Scanner with

EasySet and Configure your Scanner From Your Intermec

Computer in the present chapter.

Default values are indicated by “(*)” in this manual and in EasySet.

Reset Your Scanner (Software Reset)

Read the Reset factory defaults configuration bar code to reset your

scanner’s parameter settings to their initial values.

Reset factory defaults

You can also perform a software reset of your SF61B using one of the

following methods:

• by sending a Reset factory defaults command to the scanner in

online setup with EasySet (see Online Setup with EasySet in the

present chapter)

• by forcing a software reset of the scanner (see Force a Software

Reset in Chapter 4, Troubleshoot and Maintain the SF61B)

The resulting software reset will reset your scanner’s parameter

settings to their initial values so you will have to reconfigure any

custom settings you have programmed in your scanner.

Note: Depending on your host configuration (device, Bluetooth

version), after a software reset of your scanner (Reset factory

defaults) you may have to re-pair your product with your host device /

application (see the appropriate section in Chapter 2, Connect the

SF61B), and in all cases you will have to re-connect with your host.
