Working with paired Bluetooth-enabled devices

Pairing the handheld with another Bluetooth-enabled device creates a permanent security bond between the devices, which helps to exchange information securely between the devices. The paired relationship is established when two devices create and exchange a link key. Once the relationship is established, the handheld and the other Bluetooth device only need to have their Bluetooth radios turned on to exchange information; they do not need to be visible to other devices.

You must pair the handheld with a device before you can connect to it. Once you pair the handheld with a device, they stay paired unless you unpair them.

To pair with and connect to a Bluetooth device:

1. Tap Settings / Connected devices.

2. Make sure the Bluetooth radio is turned on. If it is not, tap the slider it to turn it on.

3. Tap Bluetooth. The handheld lists the Bluetooth devices it can detect. (If the device you want to connect to is not listed, make sure it is discoverable; refer to the documentation for the device).

4. To set up a paired connection to a device, tap it in the list of Bluetooth devices. If you are prompted to, enter a password (you will need to obtain this from the other device) or confirm that the security code is the same on both devices; tap Pair.

   If the pairing is successful, the handheld connects to the device. The device shows as connected in the list.

Unpairing a Bluetooth device

You can unpair a Bluetooth device to delete all pairing information about it. Tap next to the device in the list of Bluetooth devices, then tap FORGET.
