SKORPIO™ X5
BLUETOOTH® SERIAL CONNECTION
The Skorpio X5 can communicate with a Bluetooth® device, such as a printer, within a
range of 10 m, using the on-board Bluetooth® module.
NOTE: Area coverage and Bluetooth® radio performance may vary, due to
environmental conditions or interference caused by other devices (micro
-
wave ovens, radio transmitters, etc.).
NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATION (NFC)
NFC technology allows short-range, wireless data transfer between the terminal and
NFC tags or other NFC enabled devices placed in close proximity to the back of the ter-
minal.
Skorpio X5 support the following modes of operation:
• NFC tag reader/writer mode: the terminal reads and/or writes digital information
from or t
o an NFC tag.
• Peer-to-Peer (P2P) mode: the terminal uses Android Beam and/or Bluetooth@
technology t
o transfer screen content (e.g., a picture, web page url, or file)
between NFC enabled devices.
• NFC card emulation mode - The terminal emulates an NFC card (smart card) that
an e
xternal card reader can access.
Read NFC Tags
1. Make sure NFC is enabled (see "NFC" on page 68).
2. Hold the NFC tag close to the back of the terminal.
3. When an NFC tag is recognized, the terminal emits a sound and the tag data dis-
plays on the terminal screen.
NOTE: Suspend mode and the screen lock temporarily turns the NFC r
adio
off.
