For customers using iPad / iPhone / iPod touch

TSP100IIIBI includes an Auto Connection function because the TSP100III is always used in a 
1-to-1 connection with an iPad or other iOS tablet.
When the Auto Connection function is used, because the TSP100III connects automatically 
to the iOS tablet that it was most recently connected to when it reconnects after a 
connection was interrupted, it is not necessary to perform manual connection again. This 
can also prevent connections from any tablet other than the connected iOS tablet.
To disable this function, select TSP100III Utility [Setting] - [Bluetooth Settings], and change 
the [Auto Connection] setting to OFF.  Then tap [Apply].

Open the tablet settings screen and select 
Bluetooth.

Open the tablet settings screen and select
