Bluetooth Connectivity
The Anoto penDirector program can also connect directly to the pen via wireless Bluetooth and
receive PGC files directly through the Bluetooth link, without needing to dock the pen.
To pair penDirector with an Anoto Digital Pen:
1. Make sure that a Bluetooth dongle is present and enabled on the computer where
penDirector is installed.
2.
Note down the PIN of the Anoto Digital Pen, by docking the pen and going in the Pen
settings tab of penDirector and looking at the Pen access group at the bottom of the
dialog. The default PIN is 0000.
3. Undock the pen, or remove its protective cap if it is not docked. Make sure the power light
on the pen is turned on and green in color.
4.
Go in the Bluetooth tab of penDirector and click on Add Pen.
5.
Click on Search while the cap is off on the pen.
6.
When the pen is found, click on it and then click Add.
7. When asked for the PIN, enter the one noted above.
8.
Click OK to save the settings.
The settings for Bluetooth PGC handling are separate from the ones used when docking.
Through Bluetooth, only a single storage and PGC Post URL location can be set for all PGCs.
Warning
Because the Bluetooth configuration only handles a single route, it is not possible to use
the Design preview patter, or the special registration pattern, using Bluetooth
connectivity. To use the preview Pattern in PlanetPress Design or use the special
registration pattern, the pen's docking station must be used.
To specify where to send the PGC files received through Bluetooth:
1. Open penDirector.
2. Go to the Bluetooth tab
3. Click on the paired pen that you want to configure
