6.10 Bluetooth Peripherals
If the 7530 G2 is equipped with a Bluetooth radio, it is possible to communicate
with a variety of Bluetooth peripherals, including GSM/GPRS handsets, scanners,
printers, and so on. The range of the Bluetooth radio in the 7530 G2 is limited to
approximately 10 meters (32 feet). The Bluetooth antenna is located behind the
scanner ‘bulge’ on the back of the hand-held.
Psion Teklogix provides built-in support for the Bluetooth peripherals listed below.
Psion Teklogix provides built-in support for:
• Bluetooth-equipped cell phone.
• Serial Port Profile (SPP).
• Dial-up Networking Profile (DUN).
• File Transfer Profile (FTP).
• Human Interface Device (HID).
• LAN Access Profile (LAP).
• Object Push Profile (OPP).
Keep in mind that Bluetooth and IEEE 802.11g radios both operate in the 2.4GHz
band. Although the 7530 G2 includes features to minimize interference,
performance of the system will not be optimal if you use both radios simultaneously.
Typically, when both radios operate in the 7530 G2 at the same time, they cannot
transmit simultaneously – this has a negative impact on overall system throughput.
To minimize the impact on the backbone 802.11 network, Psion Teklogix
recommends using Bluetooth peripherals that have low transaction rates (such as
printers and scanners).
Bluetooth peripherals are configured by choosing the Bluetooth icon in the Control
Panel. Refer to “Bluetooth Setup” on page 114 for information about setting up
your Bluetooth devices for communication. In addition, review the manual shipped
with your Bluetooth device to determine the method used to associate with the 7530
G2 host.
6.11 The 7530 G2 Picker Cradle
The 7530 G2 picker cradle is a highly ruggedized, single station dock. Although
it provides quick insertion and removal, the cradle holds the 7530 G2 securely even
when operated in high vibration environments (such as vehicles not equipped with
suspensions).
