Default VGATE iCAR Pro - bluetooth pin removal?

Any smart cookie here know how to remove the pairing pin from a bluetooth device like the VGATE iCAR Pro?

I don't know if my VGATE device has a fault, but it keeps prompting me to enter the PIN each time I want to reconnect. Its annoying. Every time I get back in the car I have to reenter the PIN. The PIN offers no security cos its the same for all their devices. I want to remove the requirement for a PIN if possible.

I have one. I've managed to reduce the number of times it prompts me now. Changed one of the settings in Torque Pro. But it still does it every now and then, especially when I try connect to Forscan.

It's ticking me off......cos my cheap chinese ELM327 doesn't do it
