My Bluetooth device doesn’t work properly
Some issues arise when using Bluetooth devices as listed below.
Bluetooth wireless tips
Motion Computing and its Bluetooth partners have worked to ensure a positive experience
with this technology and to ensure Bluetooth interoperability. In doing so, we have found
the following issues:
Interference—If youre running Bluetooth and Wi-Fi at the same time, interference can
affect the Bluetooth performance. This is most noticeable if:
You try to transfer large amounts of data, such as with file transfers
Several Bluetooth devices are operating in an office simultaneously
Speech Recognition—Bluetooth audio has not been fully developed for speech
recognition. Therefore, for speech recognition, we recommend that you not use a
Bluetooth wireless headset. A better solution is to use Motion Speak Anywhere, which
allows you to record clear audio, dictate notes, and use voice commands without a
microphone headset.
Disconnection—Some Bluetooth devices will disconnect when they go into power-
saving mode. Most devices will automatically reconnect when they become active again.
Incompatible drivers—If you attempt to install other wireless headsets or other audio
drivers (such as Bluetooth or USB) over the tablet PC audio drivers, a malfunction of the
tablet PC audio system may occur because the drivers may not be compatible.
Interoperability—If youre having issues with interoperability of Bluetooth devices,
contact the manufacturer of your Bluetooth device and check its compatibility with the
Bluetooth software installed on your tablet PC.
Security—Bluetooth devices use a passkey to create a secure connection between the
tablet PC and the Bluetooth device. Although the passkey exchange helps to secure your
data, Bluetooth wireless technology should not be considered completely secure.
