When there is no active connection, the Bluetooth radio turns off.With StoneStreet One Bluetooth StackWith Microsoft Bluetooth StackResumeWhen the MC75A resumes, Bluetooth turns on if it was on prior to suspend.Using Microsoft Bluetooth StackThe following sections provide information on using the Microsoft Bluetooth stack.Turning the Bluetooth Radio Mode On and OffTurn off the Bluetooth radio to save power or if entering an area with radio restrictions (e.g., an airplane). When the radio is off, other Bluetooth devices cannot see or connect to the MC75A. Turn on the Bluetooth radio to exchange information with other Bluetooth devices (within range). Communicate only with Bluetooth radios in close proximity. Enabling BluetoothTo enable Bluetooth:NOTE If there is an active Bluetooth connection between the MC75A and another Bluetooth device, the MC75A will not timeout. However, if the user presses the Power button on the MC75A, the MC75A will suspend (except when on a call) and upon receiving data from a remote Bluetooth device, the MC75A will wake from suspend mode. For example, headset redial or Bluetooth scanner sending data to the MC75A.NOTE If there is an active Bluetooth connection between the MC75A and another Bluetooth device and there is no data activity, the MC75A will timeout. However, if the user presses the Power button on the MC75A, the MC75A will suspend (except when on a call) and upon receiving data from a remote Bluetooth device, the MC75A will wake from suspend mode. For example, headset redial or Bluetooth scanner sending data to the MC75A.NOTE To achieve the best battery life turn off radios not in use.DRAFT
