Working with Bluetooth
All units have embedded Bluetooth capability—a short-range
wireless communication technology that exchanges information
(beam) over a distance of up to 30 feet (10 meters), without
requiring a physical connection.
Bluetooth settings: tap / Settings / Bluetooth.
Mode: To enable Bluetooth, select the check box Turn on
Bluetooth. If you want other Bluetooth devices to find your
unit, also select the check box Make this device visible to
other devices.
Devices: Tap Add new device to search for other Bluetooth
devices. For enhanced security, use passcodes.
COM Ports: Available only for Bluetooth-connected devices that
support serial (COM) connections.
Wake Settings: Allow Bluetooth activity to turn the device on.
When this check box is selected, another Bluetooth device can
send data and your unit will turn on and reply if necessary.
NOTE: It is recommended that your unit be configured to
automatically turn off when not in use. (See the Power section
on page 11.) Otherwise, another Bluetooth device could turn on
your unit, transfer data and if it does not turn off again, drain
the battery.
Receiving Beams: To allow the unit to receive incoming beams,
navigate to the Connection Settings dialog. Choose Beam and
check the Receive all incoming beams checkbox.
Creating a Bluetooth Partnership: Bluetooth partnerships are
required for connections to some PC’s, printers, and headphones.
Configuring Bluetooth connections vary depending upon how each
Bluetooth device works. Refer to all device documentation.
1. Tap / Settings / Bluetooth / Mode. Ensure that both devices
have Bluetooth turned on in the Mode area, are visible and
within close range.
2. Tap Devices / Add new device… Wait a few moments while
your unit searches for Bluetooth devices.
3. Tap the name of the other Bluetooth device and tap Next. For
enhanced security, use passcodes. Enter the same passcode on
the other unit.
