Upon startup, if the scanner sounds a long tone, this means the scanner has not passed its automatic Selftest and has entered isolation mode. If the scanner is reset, the sequence is repeated. Contact Technical Assistance (page 11-1)for assistance.

Bluetooth Printer Setup

The Bluetooth managed device should be as close as possible, in direct line of sight, with the Thor VM2 during the pairing process.

1.Open the Bluetooth EZPair Panel.

2.Tap Discover. Locate the Bluetooth printer in the Discovery panel.

3.Tap and hold the stylus (or double-tap) on the Bluetooth printer ID until the right-mouse-click menu appears.

4.Select Pair as Printer to pair the Thor VM2 with the Bluetooth managed printer.

The devices are paired. The Bluetooth managed printer may respond with a series of beeps or LED flashes.

Please refer to the Bluetooth managed printer manufacturer’s User Guide; it may be available on the manu- facturer’s web site. Contact Technical Assistance (page 11-1)for Bluetooth product assistance.

Note: If there is no beep or no LED flash from the Bluetooth managed printer, the Thor VM2 and the printer are currently paired.

Easy Pairing and Auto-Reconnect

The Bluetooth module can establish relationships with new devices after the user taps the Discover button. It can auto-reconnect to devices previously known but which have gone out of range and then returned within range.

See Reconnect (page 5-33).

Note: Configuration elements are persistent and stored in the registry.

Setup the Bluetooth module to establish how the user is notified by easy pairing and auto-reconnect events.

AppLock, if installed, does not stop the end-user from using the Bluetooth application, nor does it stop other Blue- tooth-enabled devices from pairing with the Thor VM2 while AppLock is in control.
