VX 690 BT/Wi-Fi
Support
VX 690 Wi-Fi/BT integrated module uses Broadcomm BCM4330 chip, which
provides SDIO interface for Wi-Fi and UART interface for Bluetooth. The module
includes an integrated WLAN RF transceiver for Wireless LAN systems with
advanced power management unit, and an integrated radio transceiver for
Bluetooth wireless systems.
Bluetooth Support VX 690 uses the Bluetooth base station. Up to seven devices can be registered
with the same communications device, but only one transaction may be
undertaken at a time. Do not pair more than three terminals with the base station.
When more than three terminals are required, additional base stations must be
suitably positioned on site to obtain maximum radio coverage.
The terminal and the Bluetooth base station are both Class 1 Bluetooth devices
providing secure radio communication up to 100 meters, unobstructed. The
terminal may be registered (paired) with more than one base station. It must be
paired to secure the communication. The terminal may easily be switched among
paired devices using the standard menu options provided in Verix Commserver.
Establishing
Bluetooth
Connections
To establish Bluetooth connections:
1
Ensure the terminal is not more than five meters away from the Bluetooth
Base Station for initial pairing.
2
Terminal and Bluetooth Base Station must be powered on.
3
Follow the on-screen instructions displayed on the terminal.
Bluetooth base relays wireless data received from the terminal via modem and
then transmits back the response to the terminal.
Figure 21 Terminal Communicating with a Bluetooth Base
Bluetooth Base Station should be placed in a position that services all of the card
payment areas in your premises to improve the range performance of the
terminal. The ideal placement is to position the base station within line of sight of
all areas of card acceptance.
NOTE
The terminal can only communicate to a base station to which it is paired.
