1. Introduction 5 1. Introduction This Bluetooth USB Adapter adds Bluetooth technology to your existing USB PC or notebook. Simply plug it into the USB port of your machine for seamless connectivity with other Bluetooth devices.   The Bluetooth® wireless technology provides short-range wireless communications that replace the physical cable connections that traditionally link electronic devices. •  Network access points •  Computers (desktop, notebook, PDA, etc.) •  Imaging devices (printer, camera) •  Audio devices (headset, speakers) Bluetooth wireless technology also enables communication between the above devices and Bluetooth enabled phones (example: cellular, cordless, smart phones). The Bluetooth for Windows software consists of the following components: •  Microsoft® Windows® Explorer Extensions - provides access to Bluetooth devices in the immediate vicinity using Windows Explorer. •  My Bluetooth Places - graphical user interface (GUI) that provides access to Bluetooth devices in the immediate vicinity. Also provides access to configure the local devices and access to perform other Bluetooth tasks. •  BTTray Security Manager - controls and manages Bluetooth security levels. Enables user to grant or deny access and to filter what can be accessed on a Bluetooth device. •  Bluetooth for Windows Configuration Panel - configures Bluetooth for Windows (BTW) software using Windows Control Panel. •  Stack Server - provides an interface for the operating system to control Bluetooth devices and to ensure that Bluetooth connections operate together correctly. The
USB Bluetooth Dongle User’s Manual 6 stack server has a built-in Security Manager that protects the Bluetooth device from unauthorized access. •  Bluetooth Setup wizard - facilitates the configuration and modification of Bluetooth environment. The wizard can be used to configure or change local services or to establish connections to remote devices based on service type or device type. •  Quick Connect - facilitates fast connections based on service type. Enables user to quickly find devices that support a particular service and establish a connection to that service. During this process, a shortcut to the service is created in My Bluetooth Places, which can be used for subsequent connections.      FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.  This equipment must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

The supported items are: •  Business cards (*.vcf or *.vcd) • Notes (*.vnt) • Email (*.vmg) • Calendar (*.vcs)
USB Bluetooth Dongle User’s Manual 30 •  Other Types (refer to “Configure Bluetooth” on page 12. Files can be sent by drag and drop on the OBEX service.) Item transfer can be accomplished several ways: •  From Windows Explorer, My Bluetooth Places, highlight the PIM Item Transfer service on a remote device, and then, from the Bluetooth menu on the Windows menu bar, select the appropriate action. •  From within a supported Personal Information Manager: •  Select one or more items and then, from the PIM's File menu, select Send to Bluetooth. Note: If synchronization is enabled for a specific item type, but is not enabled for that item type on the remote device, synchronization will not take place for that item. Note: Not all choices are available for all items. For example, Note items can only be synchronized in Microsoft Outlook. Therefore Lotus Notes and Outlook Express are not displayed as options in the “Notes” item shortcut menu. Personal Information Managers that are not installed on this computer are not displayed as options in the shortcut menus. or •  Drag-and-drop a supported item directly from your PIM to the PIM Item Transfer service icon of a remote device. •  For business cards: •  From Windows Explorer, My Bluetooth Places, right-click the PIM Item Transfer service on a remote device and select the appropriate option. or •  In the Notification area, at the far right of the taskbar, right-click the Bluetooth icon, select Quick Connect > Business Card Exchange, select a device from the list, select the appropriate option from the shortcut menu, and then click OK. Whether sent items are accepted by the remote device is determined by how the remote device's PIM Item Transfer service is configured.
