4.5 Communication by Bluetooth

For the Bluetooth communication, it is necessary to choose CMP-10BT and set the DIP switches for Bluetooth.

As built-in Bluetooth module supports Serial Port Profile, host machine needs to communicate with CMP-10BT based on serial port profile. Please refer to the software manual of the host machine for the details. When CMP-10BT connects through the Bluetooth interface, the host machine may require a pin code. The last 4 characters of the Bluetooth Address that prints on the printer self test are the pin code that should be entered in to the host machine.
