Settings; Computer Is Connectable; Computer Is Discoverable; Prompt If Devices Request To Pair - Honeywell HX3 User Manual

Settings

Computer is connectable

This option is Enabled by default. Disable this option to inhibit HX3 connection initiated by a Bluetooth scanner.

Computer is discoverable

This option is Disabled by default. Enable this option to ensure other devices can discover the HX3.

Prompt if devices request to pair

This option is Disabled by default. A dialog box appears on the HX3 screen notifying the user a Bluetooth device
requests to pair with the HX3. The requesting Bluetooth device does not need to have been Discovered by the
HX3 before the pairing request is received. Tap the Accept button or the Decline button to remove the dialog box
from the screen.
In some cases, if a Bluetooth device is already paired this setting cannot be changed. If this is the case, an error
message is displayed and the option is not changed. The Bluetooth device must be disconnected before chang-
ing this setting.

Continuous Search

This option is Enabled 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 Suspend mode, going out of
range or being turned off). When disabled, after being enabled, the HX3 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 Blue-
tooth devices in the vicinity (Filtered Mode is disabled/unchecked) or the discovery result displays Bluetooth scan-
ners and printers only (Filtered Mode is enabled/checked). When Filtered Mode is disabled, the HX3 can pair with
up to four Bluetooth devices, with a limit of one Bluetooth scanner, one Bluetooth printer, one PAN, and one DUN
connected at the same time. More than one HID device can be connected but only one Bluetooth mouse and one
Bluetooth keyboard.
A Warmboot is required every time Filtered Mode is toggled on and off.

Printer Port - COM9

This option is Disabled by default. This option assigns Bluetooth printer connection to COM9 instead of COM19.
To enable this option, Filtered Mode must be enabled.

Logging

This option is Disabled by default. When logging is enabled, the HX3 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 HX3 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 exclusively by Bluetooth devices
and during Bluetooth communication.
