3.3 Connecting via Bluetooth

The NETUM E800 supports Bluetooth HID, SPP, and BLE modes. The following steps outline general Bluetooth HID pairing.

1. Power on the scanner.
2. Scan the "Bluetooth Pairing" barcode (refer to the quick start guide for specific barcodes if needed). The scanner will enter pairing mode, indicated by a flashing blue light.
3. On your host device (smartphone, tablet, computer), go to Bluetooth settings and search for available devices.
4. Select "NETUM E800" (or similar name) from the list of found devices.
5. Once paired, the scanner's indicator light will turn solid blue, and you will hear a confirmation beep.

For SPP or BLE modes, refer to the detailed programming guide for specific configuration barcodes.

4. Operating the Scanner

4.1 Scanning Modes

The NETUM E800 supports two primary scanning modes:

• Manual Trigger Mode: Press the scan button to activate the scanner and read a barcode.
• Continuous Scanning Mode: The scanner automatically reads barcodes when detected within its field of view, without requiring a button press. This mode is ideal for high-volume scanning.

To switch between modes, scan the appropriate configuration barcode from your quick start guide or full manual.
