How to Use
No extra adapter needed
Inateck BCST-70 connects device directly via Bluetooth. Whatever your operating system is, the BCST-70 enters pairing mode after scanning the 2 correspondent barcodes(Note 1)in the instruction manual.
Different from 2.4Ghz wireless scanner
Due to lack of USB port, 2.4Ghz scanners cannot be used with phones or tablets, but only computers, POS or other fixed machines. The USB adapter for 2.4Ghz scanners is generally customized, and must be purchased at the same factory once lost or broken. Thus 2.4Ghz wireless scanner is more applicable for closed-environment use, for example, the cashier desk, factory or warehouse.
Besides for computers, POS machine and other fixed devices, Bluetooth scanners can also connect iPhone, iPad or other mobile devices via Bluetooth(pairing procedure is as other Bluetooth devices ).
How Does BCST-70 Perform
|
|
|
---|---|---|
Increased Connection DistanceRestricted by current Bluetooth technology, almost all Bluetooth products only support a transmission distance of around 10 meters. However, through our innovation in technology, the transmission distance for the BCST-70 reaches 35 meters. The unhindered transmission distance reaches beyond 50 meters, which makes the effective transmission range reach above 1000㎡. The covering range is infinite if you take the BCST-70 with your iPhone, iPad or other mobile devices. |
Multiple Scanning ModesManual Recognition/Read Mode- Most frequently-used method, pressing button once enters one read. Auto-sensing Mode- Automatically scans barcode when put it in front of scanning window. Especially fits needs for retail stores, and inventory record in warehouses. Continuous Scanning Mode- Scans at a certain frequency. Suitable for production line at factories. Inventory Mode- Store scanning results to the scanner and count the number. |
Keyboard LanaguageGerman/English/French/Italian/Spanish. To help you use our barcode scanner better, we would provide with not only complete instruction manual, but also with timely support. |

Had an issue when uploading a batch scan ("Inventory Mode") via my laptop to our Cloud-based inventory program where the data transmission speed was too fast and caused an import error. Sent an email to their customer support department at 2:04 pm on Wednesday; received a response at 4:04 pm with detailed, thorough instructions on how to resolve it, complete with the latest firmware files, their bootloader and updated user manual as attachments. After following her step-by-step instructions, I was able to adjust the data transmission speed to 64ms and voila! Batch scan import worked perfectly!! Apparently the firmware update added the ability to adjust the data transmission speed from 0ms (default) to 128ms.
Haven't had it long enough to attest to battery life or durability, but based on what I've experienced thus far, I am very happy with this purchase and have no doubt it will perform as advertised for many years to come. *Note: wrist strap in my pictures did not come with the unit, although I did suggest to customer service that they consider including one in future packaging.

I will come back and edit if we encounter any problems. We do about 140 transactions per day with one scanner, so we'll put it to the test. Do note, if you are pairing this with an iPad via bluetooth, your iPad will think it's a keyboard and will not initially pop up the on-screen keyboard when you try to type something. You have to press and hold the trigger button to get your on-screen keyboard to pop back up. This is accomplished quickly and easily on the fly.
