5.1 Introduction
Note the following about Bluetooth connections on the Wideye Sabre 1:
• You can connect a Bluetooth handset, a Bluetooth headset or a Bluetooth data device to the
built-in Bluetooth antenna on the terminal. One device at a time can connect to the Bluetooth
interface.
• The terminal supports various Bluetooth profiles. Remember to activate/install the profile(s) you
are going to use on your computer. For a list of supported profiles, refer to the documentation
supplied with your terminal.
• The Product CD supplied with the terminal contains a driver for the Wideye Bluetooth Data
Dongle (not supplied). You can use this dongle if you do not already have a Bluetooth
application installed on your computer. Refer to the SABRE I User Manual for details on
installing the driver for the Bluetooth data dongle.
• The Bluetooth device should be placed within a maximum distance of 100 m from the terminal.
Note This is the maximum distance in open air; the actual distance may be shorter, depending
on the environment. In an office environment, you should be able to establish a
connection to an adjoining room.
