11. Whenever the Thor VM2 is turned On, all previously paired, live, Bluetooth devices in the vicinity are paired,
one at a time, with the Thor VM2. If the devices cannot connect to the Thor VM2 before the re-connect time-
out time period expires (default is approximately 20 seconds for each paired device) there is no indication of
the continuing disconnect state if Report Failure to Reconnect is disabled.
Bluetooth Indicators
There may be audible or visual signals as paired devices re-connect with the Thor VM2.
Only printers or scanners are recognized and displayed in the Bluetooth panel. All other Bluetooth devices are
ignored.
Note: When an active paired device enters Suspend Mode, is turned Off or leaves the Thor VM2 Bluetooth scan
range, the Bluetooth connection between the paired device and the Thor VM2 is lost. There may be audible
or visual signals as paired devices disconnect from the Thor VM2.
AppLock, if installed, does not stop the end-user from using Bluetooth applications, nor does it stop authorized
Bluetooth-enabled devices from pairing with the Thor VM2 while AppLock is in control.
