Connecting your OPN2005/6 and PX20 as Bluetooth keyboard (HID)
The first step of connecting your device as Bluetooth keyboard to a remote host device is to
make sure the Bluetooth HID default is configured (see 'Supported defaults').
When using Bluetooth HID, the remote host device always has to make the first connection
attempt. Therefore it is not necessary to configure the remote Bluetooth address, but you will
have to make your barcode scanner discoverable and connectable to allow the remote device
to find, pair, and connect to your device.
To make your device discoverable and connectable keep the clear key pressed for 5 seconds
till the blue LED starts blinking. When this is done, let your remote device discover all
Bluetooth devices in range to find your barcode device. The OPN2005/OPN2006/PX20 will
remain in this state for 2 minutes.

After you've discovered your device you can tell your remote host device to connect with it.
Depending on your Operating System, Bluetooth stack, and supported Bluetooth version, you
will either be asked to enter a PIN code on your remote host device, you will be shown a
random PIN code to enter with the barcode device
or you won’t be prompted for a PIN code at
all.
If you are allowed to enter any PIN code, then it is easiest to choose the last 4 digits of the
Bluetooth address of your device as the PIN code, since that is already set as the default PIN
code. Scan the 'Fixed PIN code' label below to configure this. To change this configuration
back to default again (i.e. entering the PIN code manually) you can read the other label.
