separated by "-" or ":" such as 08-00-2B-1F-3D-47 or 00:00:2F:E0:BC:7C). This address is
sometimes called the Bluetooth MAC address, or simply the MAC (Media Access Control)
address.
Talkman terminals have this address as a bar code on the label printed with "BT" for "Bluetooth."
Similarly most scanners will also have their Bluetooth address printed and/or expressed in bar
code on the device.

Bluetooth with Talkman A700/A700x Solution

VoiceConsole software is used to enable or disable the integral Bluetooth functionality on
A700/A700x devices. Options may be changed in VoiceConsole or in the Talkman device
profile. Whenever possible Honeywell recommends using options placed in the device profile.
The general checklist for enabling and using Bluetooth for the A700/A700x devices for scanning
and printing includes:
VoiceConsole Setting
Ensure the Enable Bluetooth box is checked
Enable the specific port function (scanning or
printing)
Set the specific port as an acceptor or initiator
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.
