|
Prompt if devices request | This option is Enabled by default. |
to pair | A dialog box appears on the Thor VM1 screen notifying the user a Bluetooth device |
| requests to pair with the Thor VM1. |
| The requesting Bluetooth device does not need to have been Discovered by the Thor |
| VM1 before the pairing request is received. |
| Tap the Accept button or the Decline button to remove the dialog box from the screen. |
| In some cases, if a Bluetooth device is already paired this setting cannot be changed. |
| If this is the case, an error message is displayed and the option is not changed. The |
| Bluetooth device must be disconnected before changing this setting. |
|
|
Continuous Search | This option is Disabled by default. |
| When enabled, the Bluetooth connection never stops searching for a device it has |
| paired with when the connection is broken (such as the paired device entering Sus- |
| pend mode, going out of range or being turned off). When disabled, after being en- |
| abled, the Thor VM1 stops searching after 30 minutes. |
|
|
Filtered Mode | This option is Enabled by default. |
| Determines whether the Bluetooth client discovers and displays all serial Bluetooth |
| devices in the vicinity (Filtered Mode is disabled/unchecked) or the discovery result |
| displays Bluetooth scanners and printers only (Filtered Mode is enabled/checked). |
| When Filtered Mode is disabled, the Thor VM1 can pair with up to four Bluetooth de- |
| vices. |
| A Restart is required every time Filtered Mode is toggled on and off. |

|
Printer Port - COM9 | This option is Disabled by default. |
| This option assigns Bluetooth printer connection to COM9 instead of COM19. To en- |
| able this option, Filtered Mode must be enabled. |
|
|
Logging | This option is Disabled by default. |
| When logging is enabled, the Thor VM1 creates bt_log.txt and stores it in the C:/Pro- |
| gram Files\LXE\Bluetooth folder. Bluetooth activity logging is added to the text file as |
| activity progresses. A bt_log_bak.txt file contains the data stored by bt_log.txt prior |
| to reboot. |
| During a reboot process, the Thor VM1 renames bt_log.txt to bt_log_bak.txt. If a |
| file already exists with that name, the existing file is deleted, the new bt_log_bak.txt |
| file is added and a new bt_log.txt is created. |
|
|
Computer Friendly Name | Default: Computer description (Control Panel > System > Computer Name tab). |
| The name, or identifier, entered in this space by the System Administrator is used ex- |
| clusively by Bluetooth devices and during Bluetooth communication. |
| The Computer Description field is blank by default, so unless this field is modified be- |
| fore Bluetooth is installed, Computer Friendly Name is also blank, but can be edited |
| by the user. |
