VX 680
Bluetooth
Support
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.

Sockets
Communication with the Bluetooth Base Stations are encrypted according to the
Bluetooth Standard. VX 680 terminals that are not paired cannot communicate
with the Bluetooth AP Charging Base Station.
There are three connector sockets on the Bluetooth AP Charging Base Station, as
shown in the figure below.
Power Socket
The Bluetooth AP Charging Base Station is powered using the Plugtop Adapter
and must be powered ON at all times once the Bluetooth AP Charging Base
Station has been initialized. The Green LED on the Bluetooth AP Base Station will
be lit when the power supply is connected.
RJ45 Socket
This would be used for connection to a LAN or ISDN.
NOTE
The VX 680 terminal’s Bluetooth variant can only communicate through a base
station to which it has been paired.
