Hello,
I have a CipherLab 1660 bluetooth barcode scanner that is recognized as a keyboard by the TouchPad's Bluetooth Settings application when the scanner is configured in HID mode. The TouchPad prompts me to choose a PIN, which I do (I've tried various combinations of one to four numerals). Then I scan the PIN on the barcode scanner just like I do when I'm pairing it with any other device. Unfortunately, on the TouchPad I get an "Unable to connect" error in red above the device list as soon as I scan the barcode to confirm the PIN at the very end.
On the barcode scanner I've tried SPP Master mode (which makes the TouchPad fail to recognize the device as a keyboard, and instead it shows up as "Other") and SPP Slave mode (which uses a pre-configured PIN of 0000 but still doesn't work with the same error).
Any ideas? It would be great to get this working, and the scanner pairs just fine with other devices (iPad, computers, iPhone, etc.)
