The Bluetooth
®
variant of the VX 680 terminal uses the Bluetooth
®
Access Point
(AP) Charging Base Station (VeriFone part numbers include XPBS019 for Silicon
Labs dial modem; see your VeriFone representative for other available bases) to
go online for authorization.
Although up to eight VX 680 terminals can be registered with the same
communications device, only one transaction may be undertaken at a time. It is
recommended that not more than three terminals be paired with a base station.
The VX 680 terminal’s Bluetooth
®
variant and the Bluetooth
®
AP Charging Base
Station are both Class 1 Bluetooth
®
devices providing secure radio
communication up to 100 meters, unobstructed.
The VX 680 terminal’s Bluetooth
®
variant may be registered (paired) with more
than one base station. It must be paired to secure the communication. Using the
standard menu options provided in Verix Commserver, the terminal may easily be
switched among paired devices.
Any number of VX 680 terminals may be paired with a single base station but the
base station is only able to relay a single transaction at any one time. When more
than three terminals are required on a site, additional base stations suitably
positioned to obtain maximum radio coverage are recommended.
The VX 680 terminal’s Bluetooth
®
variant can only communicate through a base
station to which it has been paired.
