Introducing Bluetooth® Bluetooth® is a short-range wireless communications technology. Devices with Bluetooth® capabilities can exchange information over a distance of about 10 meters (30 feet) without requiring a physical connection. Unlike infrared, you do not need to line up the devices to exchange information via Bluetooth®. The devices only need to be within a range of about 10 meters. You can even exchange information to a device in a different room, as long as it is within the specified range.
Bluetooth settings To configure the Bluetooth settings: 1. Tap from the lower right corner of the Today screen to display the Bluetooth menu. 2. Tap Bluetooth Settings Settings. 3. Tap one of the tabs at the bottom of the Bluetooth Settings window to make your desired changes.
Services Allows you to: • enable/disable available Bluetooth services • change the advanced settings of Bluetooth services • set authentication and specify encryption settings for Bluetooth services The available service settings are enabled when you select a Bluetooth service. Select a service from the list to establish its settings (enabled, authorisation and authentication).
Bluetooth Manager The Bluetooth Manager allows you to create, manage, and use Bluetooth® to connect to remote devices. To launch the Bluetooth Manager: 1. Tap and hold the Bluetooth icon in the Today screen. 2. Tap Bluetooth Manager Manager. 3. The My Shortcuts screen displays a list of pre-configured connections, if any.

Tap and hold the Bluetooth icon on the Today screen, then tap Bluetooth Manager Manager. 3. In My Shortcuts screen, tap and hold the device connection shortcut, then select Connect from the pop-up menu. 4. Enter the required information on the succeeding screens to complete the connection process. 5.
Dial-up networking The Dial-up Networking feature allows you to connect to a remote computer through a phone line. Once connected, you can browse the Internet, check or read emails, etc. NOTE The remote Bluetooth device that will provide the Dial-up Networking service should have access to a telephone system, either a hard-wired or a cellular connection, and capable of answering a call.
Send via Bluetooth You can conveniently send your Pocket Outlook contacts, calendar items, and tasks individually or collectively to the remote device via Bluetooth. To send data via Bluetooth: 1.

Bluetooth® Personal Area Network A Bluetooth® personal area network is a private, temporary, ad-hoc network of up to eight (8) devices. A Bluetooth® personal area network allows you to easily exchange information that normally requires a TCP/IP network. Most chat utilities, multi-player games, etc. are fully functional in a Bluetooth® personal area network environment.
3. Tap the remote devices you want to add to the personal network, then tap N e x tt. 4. Add remote devices to the Bluetooth personal network, if desired. a. Tap the A d d button, then select the device that you want to add. b. Add other devices, if desired. You can add up to eight devices, including the host. 5.
