Bluetooth Security Level

Parameter #
1393
(SSI # F8h 05h 71h)
This parameter sets a Bluetooth security level.
Choose one of the following options:
  • *Low - This is designed for ease of connection with most devices. Some devices may not accept this setting. If connection fails, increase this security setting and try again. If connecting to a Bluetooth 2.1 or later device, this setting uses the “just works” method for secure and simple pairing.
Data is encrypted using the Low-security setting if connected to Bluetooth 2.1 or later device.
  • Medium - This may require entering a PIN code on the initial connection to pair the scanner and device. If connecting to a Bluetooth 2.1 or later device, this setting uses the “passkey entry” method for secure and simple pairing.
  • High - This enables “man in the middle” protection for Bluetooth 2.1 and later. Not all devices support this mode.
  • Legacy (Bluetooth 2.0 and earlier) - This enables authentication and encryption for legacy pairing.
