|
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 VM2 stops searching after 30 minutes. This option draws power from |
| the Main Battery. |
|
|
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 VM2 can pair with up to four Bluetooth de- |
| vices. |
| A Warmboot is required every time Filtered Mode is toggled on and off. |
|
|
Printer Port - COM7 | This option is Disabled by default. |
| This option assigns Bluetooth printer connection to COM7 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 VM2 creates bt_log.txt and stores it in the /Sys- |
| tem 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 VM2 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 System Name (System Panel > Device 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. |
|
|
Note: These options can still be checked or unchecked whether Bluetooth connection is enabled or disabled.

| nection between one (or all) of the paired Bluetooth devices has resumed. Tap the |
| ok button to remove the dialog box from the screen. |
