VoiceConsole Setting
Set the security PIN if needed
For initiator mode, specify the MAC address of
the Bluetooth device to be used
Ensure that the scanning (Barcode Port) or printing port (Printer Port) is specified as "BT_SCAN"
or "BT_PRINT" as appropriate in the .vcf file settings.
Alternatively, Bluetooth can be enabled by adding configurable parameters to the advanced
settings of the device profile. It is not recommended that the parameters be placed in the task
package.
It is important to remember that the use of a Bluetooth function (scanning, printing or headset)
disables the physical port on the A700/A700x device for that use.
More information can be found in the Voice Console Online Help.

Configuring Bluetooth Capabilities with VoiceConsole

You can enable Bluetooth on Talkman A700/A700x devices using VoiceConsole. Once enabled,
the Talkman can be paired with a Bluetooth peripheral. The pairing can be initiated by either the
device or the peripheral.
More information can be found in the Voice Console Online Help.

Pairing Initiated by a Talkman Device

This method of pairing is useful if a single Talkman device will always be associated with one
scanner. If the communication link is disrupted and the scanner disconnects from the Talkman
device, the device typically recovers the connection automatically. Additionally, the consistent
pairing makes troubleshooting easier.
This method, however, may restrict use to ways that are not convenient. One disadvantage is that
the scanner must be swapped out using VoiceConsole if there is a problem.
To enable a Talkman device to initiate a connection with a Bluetooth device you will need:
