25
About Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology. Devices with
Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information over a distance of about 10
meters (30 feet) without requiring a physical connection.
Unlike infrared, you don’t need to line up the devices to beam
information with Bluetooth. The devices only need to be within a range
of about 10 meters. You can even beam information to a device in a
different room, as long as it within range.
Microsoft Pocket PC 2003 software allows you to use Bluetooth in the
following ways:
•
Beam information, such as files, appointments, tasks, and contact cards,
between devices that have Bluetooth capabilities. For example, if you
and a co-worker each have a device with Bluetooth, you can beam items
between your devices, such as files, contact cards, appointments, tasks,
and so forth.
•
Create a dial-up modem connection between your device and a
Bluetooth phone. You can then use the Bluetooth phone as a modem.
Your device might include additional Bluetooth features. For more
information, see the documentation included with your device.
About Bluetooth Modes
Bluetooth operates in three different modes:
26
•
On. The Bluetooth radio is turned on and you can use Bluetooth
features.
•
Off. The Bluetooth radio is turned off. In this mode, you can neither
send nor receive information by using Bluetooth. You might want to
turn the radio off at times in order to conserve battery power, or in
situations where radio use is prohibited, such as on airplanes and in
hospitals.
•
Discoverable. The Bluetooth radio is turned on, and all of the other
Bluetooth devices within range (about 10 meters) can detect your
device and attempt to beam information to it, establish a bond, or use a
Bluetooth service. In this mode, other devices can detect your device
whether or not a bond has been created; however, in order to receive a
beam from another device, you must accept it on your device, as
described in Receiving a Bluetooth Beam.
For more information about changing the Bluetooth mode, see Turning
On and Off Bluetooth and Making Your Device Discoverable.
About Bonds
A bond is a relationship that you create between your Pocket PC and
another Bluetooth device in order to help exchange information in a
secure manner. Creating a bond involves entering the same PIN on the
two devices you want to bond. Once a bond is created, the devices need
only have their Bluetooth radios turned on to exchange information; they
do not need to be in discoverable mode. For instructions on creating a
bond, see Create a Bond. For more information about modes, see About
Bluetooth Modes.
You need only create a bond once between two devices. Thereafter, they
recognize the bond and are able to exchange information without your
entering a PIN again. For more information about exchanging
information with other devices, see Beaming Information With Bluetooth
and Receiving a Bluetooth Beam.
Turning On and Off Bluetooth
1. Tap
> Settings > Connections tab.
2. Tap Bluetooth.
3. Select On or Off.
27
The Bluetooth radio is turned on or off according to your
selection.

that it is turned on, in discoverable mode, and within 10 meters (30 feet) of
your device. Also, make sure that your Bluetooth radio is turned on.
Receiving a Bluetooth Beam
1. Make sure that your device is configured to receive incoming beams.

The information is received on your device.
Using a Bluetooth Phone as a Modem
You can use a phone that has Bluetooth capabilities as a modem for your device.
To do this, you create a Bluetooth modem connection on your device and then
send information to the phone by using Bluetooth. The phone relays the
information over the phone line and then sends back to your device any
information that you had requested over the connection.
Once you create a modem connection to the Bluetooth phone, you can
reuse it whenever you want to use the phone as a modem.
1. Make sure that the Bluetooth phone is turned on, that your device's and
the phone's Bluetooth radios are turned on, and that your device and the
phone are within 10 meters (30 feet) of one another.
2. If you have not already done so, create a Bluetooth phone connection by
following steps 3 through 16. Otherwise, skip to step 17.
3. Tap
> Settings > Connections tab.
4. Tap Connections > Add a new modem connection.
5. Enter a name for the connection.
29
6. In the Select a modem list, tap Bluetooth > Next.
7. Make sure that the phone is discoverable. Some phones may also need
to be pairable in order to accept a bonding request. For more
information, see your phone documentation.
8. If the phone appears in the My Connections list, skip to step 14. If not,
tap New and follow the remaining steps.
9. In the list, tap the phone and then Next.
10. In PIN, enter a PIN of between 1 and 16 characters, and tap Next.
11. Enter the same PIN on the phone.
12. If you want, in Name, edit the name of the phone.
13. Tap Finish.
14. In the My Connections list, tap the phone, and then Next.
15. Enter the phone number to dial for this connection and tap Next.
16. In User name, Password, and Domain, enter the logon information for
this connection and tap Finish.
17. Start using the program that uses the Bluetooth phone connection; for
example Inbox to send and receive e-mail, or Internet Explorer to
browse the Web.
Create a Bond
You can create a bond between your device and another device that has
Bluetooth. Once you do this, Bluetooth doesn't need to be in discoverable mode
in order for you to beam information between the two devices; the Bluetooth
radio only needs to be turned on.
1. Make sure that the two devices are within 10 meters of one another and
that Bluetooth is in discoverable mode on both devices.
2. Tap
30
> Settings > Connections tab.
3. Tap Bluetooth > Bonded Devices tab > New. Your device searches for
other Bluetooth devices and displays them in the list.
