When setting up your Bluetooth connection, the following information may be required:

 Pocket Spectrum Passkey: 1000

 Bluetooth Service: Printer or Serial (COM) Device

See the documentation that came with your computer or USB Bluetooth Adaptor on how to setup a Bluetooth

connection.

Important Note:

Before setting up a new Bluetooth connection ensure that the Pocket Spectrum is fully charged and reset. If the

Pocket Spectrum is not reset, it will not pair properly. See the troubleshooting section for additional information

on pairing the Pocket Spectrum (Troubleshooting: Pairing the Pocket Spectrum with a Bluetooth Device).

Verifone P250

The Verifone P250 printer must be set to its factory defaults (9600 baud, 7 bit, even parity; see page 5 of the

Printer 250 Installation Guide that came with your Verifone Printer). Meritus PC does not support the Verifone

P900 printer.

If you do not have a serial port, a USB-to-Serial hardware connector that can be used, however, it is important

to make sure the COM Port setting is setup to match the Verifone factory default above.

For technical support on the Verifone printer, visit the Verifone Web site at: http://www.verifone.com.

Important Note for Windows XP Users:

Due to the nature of the Windows multitasking environment and the communications settings of the VeriFone

P250 printer, it is recommended that you do not try to perform additional tasks in windows during the receipt

printing process. Depending on the type of hardware setup on your workstation, multitasking may cause the

printer to loose some information being sent through the communications port. This could result in incorrectly

formatted receipts.
