PAIRING FAQ

Why do I need the Bluetooth adapter when the iPhone and iPad have built-in
Bluetooth?
There are two primary reasons:
 The 3000MP Reader uses the Bluetooth serial port profile to connect to other
devices. The iPhone and iPad do not support Bluetooth serial port profile connections.
 NSA and DISA require that all extraneous (unused) Bluetooth profiles be disabled as
a security precaution. Since this level of granularity is not available in iOS 4.x for
the iPhone's native Bluetooth radio, an external Bluetooth adapter is required for
communications with the Smart Card reader.
Can I still use my iPhone's internal Bluetooth radio for connections to other
devices, such as a headset?
Check with your network administrator or security officer. The US Department of Defense
recommends that the native Bluetooth radio be turned off at all times as a security
precaution.
Can I pair my reader to an iPhone or iPad if while the reader is charging?
No
