Bluetooth BLE GATT settings

Bluetooth BLE GATT server settings

A list of all valid configuration settings for the config.txt file which relate to sending pass information over a BLE GATT server interface, when the VTAP PRO is in Local mode.

Note: Bluetooth is only available on VTAP100-PRO-BW hardware.

BTServerMode is used to switch between BLE GATT server and BLE keyboard operation. These two modes cannot be used at the same time.

When a BLE GATT server mode is enabled, use BTServerName if you want the Bluetooth advertised device name to be anything other than the VTAP reader's serial number. If you want to add a PIN for pairing set BTServerPIN.

Settings below: BTServerMode | BTServerName | BTServerPIN

BTServerMode

Definition:

Turns BLE GATT server on or off.

Options:

=1 enables BLE GATT server (overrides any BTKeyboardMode setting),
=0 switches it off (default)

Default value: =0

Example value: =1

BTServerName

Definition:

This is the name that the VTAP BLE GATT server will advertise for discovery by a host device.

Options:

Up to 15 characters. If something longer is set it will be truncated.
Defaults to the VTAP assigned serial number. (VTAP Label value in boot.txt.)

Default value: =<VTAP Label>

Example value: =CC123456

BTServerPIN

Definition:

Optional PIN for pairing the VTAP PRO reader with host device such as PC or tablet.

Options:

Numeric, 6 digits. By default a PIN is not set.

If a PIN of less than 6 digits is set, that PIN will be padded with leading zeros.
So, if you set BTKeyboardPIN=1234, your PIN will actually be 001234.

Default value: N/A

Example value: =123456
