Connecting your OPN2002 as master

If you want the OPN2002 to connect to a remote device (as master) it will be necessary to configure
the Bluetooth address of the remote device first.

Usually the address is displayed on the product label as a hexadecimal code (example: 00-11-F6-03-
39-69). Otherwise consult the documentation of the device to learn how to retrieve the Bluetooth
address.

To configure this Bluetooth address in the OPN2002 you'll have to create a barcode label containing
this hexadecimal code as described below.

Opticon provides a simple on-line application to create a barcode label containing a Bluetooth
address. This application can be found at:

http://opticonfigure.opticon.com/bluetooth.asp

Print screen of the online Bluetooth address label generator.

Type in the 12 digits of the address using numbers and capitals without dashes, dots and spaces
(example: 0011F6033969) and press submit.

After you've created the barcode, you can print it and should scan the barcode to configure the
Bluetooth address and save it in non-volatile memory.

The OPN2002 will automatically try to establish a Bluetooth connection when reading this label, so this
label can also be used to (re)connect to your remote Bluetooth device at any time as well.

Depending on the Operating System and Bluetooth stack of your PC or laptop, it is mandatory to first
open the (incoming) Bluetooth Virtual Com port before you will be able to connect your OPN2002 as
master.
