Bluetooth Configuration
Introduction
Contact Technical Assistance (page 16-1) for upgrade availability if your Bluetooth panels are not the same as the panels pre-
sented in this section.
Discover and manage pairing with nearby Bluetooth devices.
MX7 Tecton Bluetooth client icon state and paired Bluetooth device icon states change as Bluetooth devices are discovered,
paired, connected and disconnected. There may be audible or visual signals as paired devices re-connect with the MX7 Tecton.
• The default Bluetooth setting is Off.
• The MX7 Tecton cannot be discovered by other Bluetooth devices when the Computer is discoverable option is disabled
(unchecked) on the Settings panel.
• Other Bluetooth devices cannot be discovered if they have been set up to be Non-Discoverable or Invisible.
• When Filtered Mode is enabled, the MX7 Tecton can pair with one Bluetooth scanner and one Bluetooth printer.
• When Filtered Mode is disabled, the MX7 Tecton can pair with up to four Bluetooth devices connected at the same time.
• It is not necessary to disconnect a paired scanner and printer before a different scanner or printer is paired with the MX7
Tecton.
• The target Bluetooth device should be as close as possible (up to 32.8 ft/10 meters Line of Sight) to the MX7 Tecton during
the pairing process.
Assumption: The System Administrator has Discovered and Paired targeted Bluetooth devices for the MX7 Tecton. The MX7
Tecton operating system has been upgraded to the revision level required for Bluetooth client operation. An application (or API)
is available that will accept data from serial Bluetooth devices.
