Radio Range and Transferring Data
The CR2 radio is a Class 1 device. If connected to another Class 1 device the unit has
roughly a 300 feet line-of-sight operating range. If connecting to a Class 2 or Class 3
device, the operating range will drop to match the lower range. Once a unit is connected,
a serial application must be opened (HyperTerminal) unless CodeXML Router is installed.
When the CR2 detects the radio is out of range, the CR2 will store data on the reader’s
non-volatile memory.
For more information about setting up and using the CR2 with a wireless Bluetooth
configuration, please visit
www.codecorp.com/manuals.php
and download the latest
version of the CR2 User Manual.

If you purchased a CodeXML Bluetooth Modem or a Belkin® Bluetooth adapter from Code or
from an authorized distributor, a QuickConnect Code was included. If you bought a Bluetooth
adapter separately and wish to create a QuickConnect Code, please visit Code’s web site at:

To connect your reader, use the following steps:
1. Power on the CR2 reader by pressing one of the red buttons for one second to power on the
reader.
2. Scan the
Reset to RF Factory Defaults
code on Page 3 (M684_01).
3. Scan the
QuickConnect Code
you received or created from Code’s website (see Sample on
Page 3).
4. The CR2 will automatically connect to the computer. By default, the CR2 will beep once after
it connects and beep four times in a row if it did not connect.
5. Scan the
Save Settings
code on Page 3 (M188_02) if you want to save the wireless
connection settings to the CR2 so that the CR2 will automatically try to connect wirelessly
the next time it is powered on.
Important Note:
You
will need to locate the Communications (COM) Port assigned to the
Bluetooth serial port protocol.
While installing the Bluetooth Configuration Manager software that
was included with your Bluetooth adapter, make sure to note the Communications (COM) Port
number the software assigned for the adapter (e.g., COM 10). This is the COM Port through
which the CR2 will connect.
Scan the QuickConnect code that
matches the Bluetooth address of
your device.
