BxLogistics installation part 4 - Connecting a handheld scanner/BxMobile to the server/BxEngine

When you are connecting a new device to BxLogistics or BxSales, the following must be in place: 

• The device must be licensed.
• The device will be automatically assigned to an available license during the pairing process.
• If there are no available licenses, additional licenses must be ordered.
• BxEngine must be installed (Installation part1) and BxAdmin must be configured (Installation part 2).
• BxMobile must be installed.
• Follow Installation part 3 for the installation process.

Pairing the Device in BxAdmin

The next step is to pair the device in BxAdmin.

Note! You can only pair one unit at a time.

Steps to Pair a New Device

1. Open BxAdmin → Go to "Devices"
2. Click Add.
   • A dialog box will appear with a Company Code.
   • Do not click OK yet—leave this dialog box open.
   • (Optional) Name the device for easier identification.
3. On the handheld terminal, open BxMobile and enter the Company Code from Step 2.
4. Tap the magic wand icon in the top-right corner.
   • The screen will dim, and a loading icon will appear.
   • Wait for a message indicating that the device has been registered.
   • Do not click OK yet—leave this dialog box open.
5. In BxAdmin, a "Device Connected" message will appear, confirming the connection between the device and BxEngine/BxAdmin.
   • Click Confirm in BxAdmin.
6. Finally, click OK on the device’s dialog box from Step 4.
   • BxMobile will load for a few moments.
   • Once completed, the main menu will appear, displaying all active modules according to your license/setup.

Re-pairing a Device

If you get logged out of BxMobile, the device must be paired again.

Follow the same steps as above, with one difference:

• In Step 2, instead of clicking Add, select the device from the Devices list in BxAdmin and click Re-Pair.
• If you click Add instead, you will receive a duplicate error when completing Step3.
