Working via USB Cable

Get Started: Connect the scanner with your device via USB cable. If a US keyboard is used, it's a plug-and-play model. For other keyboard types, refer to the "Keyboard Language" section to set the keyboard language before use.

Working via Bluetooth

Get Started: After connecting Bluetooth with your device (refer to the "Bluetooth Connection" section of this manual), the scanner is ready for use. US keyboard is set by default. If another keyboard type is used, refer to the "Keyboard Language" section to set the keyboard language before use.

  1. Power on the scanner; the blue indicator will flash after a few seconds.
  2. Enter the 'Control Panel' > 'Devices and Printers' > 'Add a device', then select 'Bluetooth' to add the device to your computer.
  3. Click 'Next'. The scanner will beep to indicate successful pairing, and the light will turn solid blue.

2. Android: Connect Android Device in Basic Mode

  1. Power on the scanner. Ensure the scanner is discoverable (unpaired). The blue indicator will flash after a few seconds.
  2. Touch Home | Menu | Settings | Wireless & Networks | Bluetooth settings.

Screenshots illustrate Bluetooth pairing on Android devices. The first screenshot shows Bluetooth settings with a toggle for on/off, visibility options, and a list of paired and available devices, including 'NETUM Bluetooth'. The second screenshot shows the same interface after 'NETUM Bluetooth' has been connected, indicating its status as 'Connected'.

3. Pairing with your iOS device

  1. Power on the scanner. Ensure the scanner is discoverable (unpaired). The blue indicator will flash after a few seconds.
  2. Click on "Bluetooth" in the left column. Your iOS device will automatically start searching for any Bluetooth Devices in the area.
  3. Once "Netum Bluetooth" is identified on the screen, tap on it to automatically connect. The scanner's LED light will turn solid blue.

Screenshots illustrate Bluetooth pairing on iOS devices. Both screenshots show the iOS Bluetooth settings interface with a toggle for Bluetooth, a 'MY DEVICES' section listing 'i-monkey' (Not Connected) and 'NETUM bluetooth' (Connected in the second screenshot), and an 'OTHER DEVICES' section. The second screenshot confirms the 'NETUM bluetooth' device is connected.

Low Voltage Alarm: The scanner will make two beeps to remind users of low voltage. Plug in the USB cable to charge it. Important Notes: If the scanner has run out of battery during storage, charge it for 2-3 hours the first time it is used.

For other configurations, refer to the programming barcodes below.

Barcode Programming

Netum barcode scanners are factory programmed for the most common terminal and communications settings. To change these settings, programming is accomplished by scanning the barcodes in this guide. An asterisk (*) next to an option indicates the default setting.

Operation Mode

A) BT HID Mode (Default)*

No software installation is needed; connects to most devices with Bluetooth or USB interface. In this mode, the scanner interacts with the device like a keyboard. Therefore, the scanner will work with Safari, Notes, and any other applications that support an active cursor.

Barcode: BT HID Mode

Note: This command barcode applies only for Bluetooth Wireless Mode.

Keyboard Language

To ensure the scanner uploads codes correctly, set the keyboard language before use. For example, if a French Keyboard is used, scan the barcode for "French Keyboard"; the scanner will then upload barcodes according to the French keyboard layout. American Keyboard is set by default; if a US keyboard is used, this step can be skipped.

B) Application Mode (SPP)

For Android or Windows only. Software installation is required. This mode is recommended if an application that supports mobile scanners is used.

Barcode: BT SPP Mode

Note: This command applies only for Bluetooth Wireless Mode.

Scan Mode
