Number pad scroll lock issue

Hello,
Using the latest MacBook Pro with the latest version of Parallels 12, running latest version of Windows.
I have a Bluetooth number pad(10-key). When in Parallels it is only in scroll mode and not Num Lock. So it will not type out any digits. In fact I am not seeing any way to turn the Num lock on/off.
This is the second Bluetooth Number pad I have tried. There are no device specific configuration settings for these.

Please advise.

Hi @TravisM3,
The remotely connected Bluetooth device doesn't recognize virtual machine as a separate device, it recognizes only Mac.
Please let us know the version (build) of Windows virtual machine and we can check and help! Thanks!

So there is no solution right now? Correct?

Hi @TravisM3, yes! You cannot use Bluetooth NumberPad as a separate device in Windows virtual machine. You can see the limitations:
* Bluetooth Syncronization Profile is not supported (being used in Bluetooth Handsfree and Headphones)
* Secure Simple Paring authentication method is not supported;
* ActiveSync profile is not supported (Used in Windows Mobile devices).
