User's Manual Part 2
152 Connecting to other devices
Preliminary
Connection to another device can be made within a range of up
to 10 metres. For all tasks, except beaming, it is necessary that
you first set up a permanent and trusted relationship between
your P800 and the other device. This process is called pairing
(other documentation refer to it as bonding). The paired devices
are remembered by your P800 also after you have turned it off
so you do not need to repeat the process for every connection
with those devices. The reason for pairing is to simplify future
connections and to make them secure – only paired devices can
connect to your P800.
