2.Operating Modes
This device have three Operating Modes, the factory default is Real-Time Mode.
Operating Modes can be changed by scanning configuration barcodes.As a security measure,
Operating Modes can’t be changed if there is any data record in the data file（data.txt）hasn’t
been uploaded .
Descriptions of Operating Modes are in the following table.
Operating Mode
Descriptions
Real-Time Mode
The scanned data will be transferred via Bluetooth connection and
the scanned data will not be transferred or saved in data file when
Bluetooth is disconnected.
HID Mode supports connection-error handshaking.
Application utility is needed to handle communication-error
handshaking and data receive / send in SPP Mode.
Batch Mode
Scanned data will be saved in the device as < data.txt > file.
There are two different ways to retrieve the scanned data:
via Bluetooth communication：stored data can be retrieved via
Bluetooth SPP Mode connection.
via USB port：stored data file can be retrieved via USB cable
connection.
Stored data can be deleted in two different ways:
Scan “Factory Default “configuration barcode;
Delete the data file on host PC after USB connection.
Hybrid Mode
Scanned data will be transferred via Bluetooth connection and, if
Bluetooth is disconnected, the scanned data will be saved in the data
file. After Bluetooth been reconnected, records stored in the data file
will be transferred to host device in SPP Mode. After file transfer
been completed, records in the data file will be deleted automatically.
An application utility is needed to handle the handshaking protocol in
SPP Mode.
※Customer can choose the most suitable Operating Mode based on the actual application
environment.

Master Mode
CYCLOPS-I sends pairing request to host device.
Please refer to <The setting barcode about physical address of Bluetooth
module>.
Bluetooth physical address of host device can only be 12-digital.
Slave Mode
Host device sends pairing request to CYCLOPS-I.
Please refer to <The Setting barcode about Device Name of
CYCLOPS-I>
BT manger application of host device selects device name for CYCLOPS-I.
※If CYCLOPS-I wants to be connected with BT dongle of PC or laptop, version of the
dongle must be 2.0 or beyond.
