Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 3 Keyboard Description Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 4 Configuring the Keyboard to Your Device NOTE: The Bluetooth connection between the mobile device and keyboard must be set up through the Stowaway keyboard/mouse driver. ENABLING THE KEYBOARD DRIVER 1. To enable the Stowaway Sierra keyboard, tap the Enable button on the Config screen of the keyboard application. This will open the Keyboard Setup Screen. 2. When the Device Setup Screen is shown, select the Bluetooth wireless keyboard option and tap Setup. This will show the Bluetooth Keyboard Status Page of the Stowaway Sierra keyboard application. You may also open that page by selecting the BT tab. 3. When Setup begins, the driver will enable the mobile device’s Bluetooth system software; this is also known as the Bluetooth Stack. Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 5 The following section deals strictly with Secure Connections. By default the Secure box is checked in the driver and is the recommended method, as it provides the best security and reconnection. SECURED CONNECTIONS 1. On mobile devices with Windows Mobile 5.0 you may see a screen warning that the Stowaway Sierra Keyboard driver will not work with the built-in Bluetooth Keyboard driver. You must tap Disable built-in HID driver in order to get the full functionality of the keyboard. 2. A Secure connection requires authentication by entering the same passkey on the mobile device and then on the keyboard. A Secure connection allows automatic reconnection. Before starting the connection make sure the keyboard is Discoverable by the mobile device. To do this, press the Discoverable button on the keyboard until the green LED (above the <0> key) flashes once per second. Then tap the Connect button on the screen. 3. The mobile device will scan for the Stowaway Sierra Keyboard. Once it is discovered, a prompt will display allowing you to enter the passkey. Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 6 4. You will be prompted for a passkey and will see a Bluetooth Passkey dialog box. Enter a passkey of your own choosing (of 1-9 digits) using the mobile device’s on-screen keyboard and tap OK. Then, type the same passkey number on the Stowaway Sierra keyboard. When finished, press thekey. NOTE: The passkey must contain only digits, for example 111. 5. If the passkey is not entered correctly, the connection will fail. In this case you will need to repeat steps 1-4 from above. NOTE: Please, make sure that the passkey is entered on-screen first, tap OK and then follow with the passkey on the keyboard. When finished, press the key on the keyboard. 6. The keyboard is now paired and available for use. If the keyboard is closed, the mobile device is turned off or either is idle too long the connection will be broken. To reconnect, make sure both devices are powered on and within range, then press a key to reestablish the connection. If reconnection fails tap the Connect button on the BT status page. NOTE: It may take 2-3 seconds for the connection to be reestablished after a key press. Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 7 UNSECURED CONNECTIONS The following sequence may depend on the settings in your Bluetooth Manager and which Bluetooth stack is present on your mobile device. For more information see Unsecured Mode Settings. 1. Make the keyboard discoverable by pressing the Discoverable button on the keyboard until the green LED (above the <0> key) flashes once per second. Make sure the Secure box is not checked and tap the Connect button on the screen. 2. The mobile device will scan for the Stowaway Sierra Keyboard. 3. After the connection is made you may be prompted to verify the connection by typing 123 on the keyboard. Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 8 4. Depending on the mobile device’s Bluetooth Accessibility Settings and Bluetooth Stack you may see this screen next. Tapping Make PDA accessible will set the Bluetooth Accessibility Settings to allow automatic reconnection of the mobile device and the keyboard when both are powered on and in range. NOTE: This is a vulnerable configuration; please see Unsecured Mode Settings for more information. 5. If you choose Make PDA accessible you will be prompted with this warning screen, tap Yes to finish making the connection. 6. If you choose not to Make PDA accessible by tapping Cancel or No you will be warned that future connections between the mobile device and the keyboard will need to be set up manually before each use. Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 9 OTHER FEATURES 1. The Bluetooth Status Page displays the current state of the Bluetooth connection between your mobile device and the Stowaway Sierra keyboard. You can enable and disable the connection, and enter text to test the connection. Keyboard battery strength and firmware version are also displayed here. For more information on the Advanced tab see Power Efficient Modes. 2. On the Bluetooth Status Page the keyboard battery information is displayed. The two states of the battery are: a. Normal – This is the most common state of the battery. b. Critical – This means the batteries are in imminent danger of no longer functioning. 3. If the keyboard batteries reach a critical state a message will be displayed on the Today screen. NOTE: The keyboard will display a RED LED above the <0> key to show when the battery does not have enough power for the Bluetooth radio to function. Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 10 4. If several Stowaway Sierra keyboards happen to be nearby and in Discoverable Mode, the scan will display all of these devices in the list. The keyboard ID (Bluetooth address) printed on the back of the keyboard should be compared with the IDs in the list and the desired keyboard selected. 5. If the application finds more than one Bluetooth stack on the mobile device, it will display a Stack Selection dialog box. If the device has a built-in Bluetooth system, that stack should be used. If the device is using a removable Bluetooth card such as a SDIO card, a different stack may need to be used. If the wrong stack is selected, a connection may not be possible. In such case, rerun the connection procedure and select the correct stack. 6. If the keyboard driver displays the Bluetooth system not detected message, first verify that the driver has been loaded into Main Memory. Next, be sure that the device has not been upgraded with an incompatible version of the Bluetooth stack. In this case the keyboard software must be replaced with a compatible version. Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 11 POWER EFFICIENT MODES 1. The Advanced tab allows access to different power efficiency modes. 2. The Stowaway Sierra keyboard is designed to operate in Power Efficient Mode in compliance with the Bluetooth specification. However, some mobile devices have difficulty operating effectively with Power Efficient Mode set to ON. The default setting is Auto, this allows the keyboard driver to determine whether to use Power Efficient mode or not. If the driver detects a mobile device which may work incorrectly in Power Efficient mode, it will turn it OFF automatically. You should turn OFF Power Efficient mode manually if you experience problems such as: ¾ Inability to Scan for other Bluetooth devices. ¾ Inability to Connect to other Bluetooth devices. ¾ Inability to Discover the mobile device and connect to it from another Bluetooth host. NOTE: Turning off Power Efficient mode will shorten the battery life of your Bluetooth devices. Power Efficient mode may be turned ON manually to extend battery life if the mobile device fully supports it or only one Bluetooth peripheral is used at a time. Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 12 FIRMWARE UPGRADE Depending on the version of your keyboard, you may see an Upgrade Firmware button on the BT page, and a message advising that the firmware be upgraded. This updates the keyboard’s ROM software and will improve functionality and compatibility with more devices. 1. Tap Upgrade firmware to begin the process. NOTE: This process may also be done from the Advanced page by tapping Upgrade firmware. 2. Press the Discoverable button until the green light above the <0> key flashes once per second, then tap Start. NOTE: While the firmware is being upgraded be sure that the keyboard and mobile device are not disturbed and that no other Bluetooth activities are taking place. 3. When the firmware upgrade process is completed, power cycle the keyboard by closing and reopening it. NOTE: Following the upgrade, it will be necessary to reestablish a connection between the keyboard and the mobile device. See Configuring the Keyboard to Your Device for instructions. Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 13 Reconnecting the Stowaway Sierra keyboard For information on Unsecured connections and re-connections see Unsecured Mode Settings. Despite a high degree of reliability, the Bluetooth connection could break for many reasons: ¾ The keyboard will power off when the right key panel is slid out and the Bluetooth connection will be lost. ¾ For power efficiency, the keyboard will automatically power down after an idle period (when there is no activity for approximately 5 minutes). ¾ When the mobile device is turned off, the established Bluetooth connection will be lost. ¾ When the mobile device and the keyboard move beyond the wireless range (~10m), the connection will be lost. When any of these conditions occurs, the connection will be lost and the software will switch to waiting mode. To restore the connection, make sure the keyboard and mobile device are powered on and in range, then tap any key on the keyboard. The connection should be reestablished within 2-3 seconds but this may be delayed if the Bluetooth system on the mobile device is busy. For example, after the mobile device is powered on, it may take 10 or more seconds for the Bluetooth system to re-initialize. NOTE: Do not press the Discoverable button. This will break the bond between the keyboard and the mobile device. If this happens, you will have to establish a new connection as described above. Even when disconnected, the mobile device and the keyboard remain bonded. The keyboard will only reconnect to the bonded mobile device and the mobile device will only listen to the bonded keyboard. To break the bond press the Discoverable button for approximately 1 second or until the green LED flashes quickly. Normally the bond will not need to be broken unless the keyboard will be used with another mobile device or another keyboard will be used with the mobile device. Therefore, please avoid pressing the Discoverable button during normal operation. If this has happened, you will have to establish a new connection as described in the Secured Connections section above. Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 14 Unsecured Mode Settings For those using Windows Mobile 2003 or a non-Microsoft Bluetooth stack, there are two Bluetooth settings that affect how the keyboard and the mobile device connect in Unsecured mode. All Devices and Paired devices only. In order to automatically reconnect in Unsecured mode, the mobile device’s Bluetooth settings must be set to allow All Devices to connect. Each manufacturer’s Bluetooth configuration screens differ, but generally you will find the All devices and Paired devices only options within the Bluetooth Settings under the Accessibility tab. This set of screens may be available directly via a Bluetooth icon on the Today screen, or by navigating to the Start Menu > Settings > Connections tab. If your device is set to Paired devices only you will be prompted to Make PDA accessible during the initial set up of the keyboard. This will change the settings to All devices. NOTE: Because they are not encoded, Unsecured connections do not provide built-in signal encryption and are vulnerable to eavesdropping of the data transmitted between the keyboard and the mobile device. If you choose to create an Unsecure connection and Cancel at the Make PDA accessible dialog, the settings will remain in the Paired devices only state. This means that before each use of the keyboard it will need to be made discoverable and the connection will need to be manually set up, see Unsecured Connections for instructions on how to do this. Proper settings for automatic reconnection of keyboard in Unsecured mode using a nonMicrosoft Bluetooth stack. NOTE: For those using windows Mobile 5.0 or a Microsoft Bluetooth stack there are no adjustments to make, it is simply a matter of checking or unchecking the Secure box on the BT page. Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 15 Customizing Your Keyboard Once the keyboard software is installed on the mobile device, you may customize the options. A keyboard icon will appear on the screen while using Calendar, Contacts, or other applications. ¾ Tap the keyboard icon once to display the Input Method Toolbar. ¾ Tap the keyboard icon on the Input Method Toolbar to display the Keyboard Control Panel. NOTE: Tapping the keyboard icon once at the Today screen once will first display the Keyboard Control Panel. Tapping the same keyboard icon will display the Input Method Toolbar. Input Method Toolbar There are four icons that appear on the Input Method Toolbar. This assumes that the Stowaway Keyboard input method is selected. The leftmost icon shows the state of the Bluetooth connection; there are three different states that can be indicated. A tap and hold on this icon will display a text message describing the state. ¾ This shows that the Bluetooth connection is active. ¾ This shows that the driver is waiting for the keyboard to reconnect. ¾ This shows that the connection is not setup. The other three icons relate to other features of the keyboard driver. ¾ Tap this speaker icon to turn the keyboard clicking sounds on or off. ¾ Tap this keyboard icon to access the Keyboard Control Panel. This second keyboard icon appears above the keyboard icon that is visible in the lower right corner of the screen. ¾ Tap this help icon to access keyboard help topics and troubleshooting tips. Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 16 Keyboard Control Panel On the Config tab: ¾ Tap Enable to choose which keyboard to enable. Tap Disable to turn off access to all keyboards. ¾ To see a visual indication if the keyboard is in Caps Lock or Num Lock mode, check or uncheck the Show Capslock/Numlock notification option. ¾ To select whether or not the keyboard icon will appear in the lower right corner of the Today screen, check or uncheck the Show Icon on Today screen option. ¾ To increase key repeat speed, drag the Key Repeat Rate slider to the left. ¾ To decrease key repeat speed, drag the Key Repeat Rate slider to the right. ¾ To increase key repeat delay, drag the Key Repeat Delay slider to the right. ¾ To decrease key repeat delay, drag the Key Repeat Delay slider to the left. ¾ To change the language layout in use, tap the down-arrow in the drop down box under Layout.

Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 17 Disabling the Stowaway Sierra Keyboard When the Stowaway Sierra keyboard is no longer needed, the keyboard driver may be disabled by tapping the Disable button on the BT or Config page. The Connection is not set up message will then be displayed on the BT page. NOTE: Disabling the keyboard will break the bond between the keyboard and the mobile device. NOTE: Disabling the Stowaway Sierra keyboard will not automatically turn off the Bluetooth radio. Conversely, turning the Bluetooth radio off while the Stowaway Sierra keyboard driver is still enabled will not work. Because of the behavior of the Bluetooth stack, the Bluetooth radio will automatically turn back on after a few seconds. To turn the radio off, the Stowaway Sierra keyboard must be disabled first. To re-enable the connection, tap the Connect button on the BT page or tap Enable on the Config page. See Configuring the Keyboard to Your Device for complete instructions. Secure Connection Overview When a secure connection is established, the paired devices share a permanent security bond. This bond is established when two devices create and exchange a Link Key, this process is also known as pairing. Link Keys are based on a unique Bluetooth Device Address, an internally generated random number and a user defined Passkey. With a Bluetooth connection, transmissions may be intercepted. In order to limit this exposure, a secure connection should be set up. This encrypts data sent from the keyboard to the mobile device, creating a virtual cable. This means that there is a 1:1 relationship between the mobile device and the keyboard and it will not respond to connection requests from other devices. The mobile device on the other hand will retain the ability to create new pairings with other devices. The mobile device searches the Bluetooth radio band until it finds the keyboard. If the Secure box is checked it will prompt for a Passkey. Once completed, each time the mobile device and keyboard are powered on within range of each other, the devices will be reconnected with a key press. Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 18 Keyboard Status Light When the keyboard is open and the right panel is slid in, there is a light above the <0> key that indicates the status of the keyboard. ¾ When the keyboard status light flashes a fast green light (approx. once per second) it is in Discoverable mode. This is the state that allows it to be detected by the mobile device. To place the keyboard into Discoverable mode, press the Discoverable button. ¾ When keyboard status light flashes a slow green light (approx. once every four seconds) it is connected to the mobile device and is available for use. ¾ When the keyboard status light is solid red for 5 seconds after power on, the batteries must be replaced before the keyboard can resume normal operation. ¾ When the keyboard is not connected to the mobile device the status light is dark. This happens when a connection or reconnection has not been established or the connection has been broken.

Stowaway Sierra Owner’s Manual for Windows Mobile Page 28 Important Battery Information • • • • • Keep battery away from children. Always replace old, weak or worn-out batteries promptly and recycle or dispose of them properly. Before inserting a new battery, the battery compartment should be cleaned. If fluid from the battery comes into contact with skin or clothes, flush with water immediately. Remove the battery if the device will be inactive longer than a month. Do not open, puncture or otherwise damage the battery. Do not use fire to dispose of battery. Released battery electrolyte is corrosive and can cause damage to the eyes and skin and may be toxic if swallowed. Comfortable Typing Research suggests that physical discomfort and injury to nerves, tendons, and muscles may be related to repetitive motion, an improperly set up work area, incorrect body posture, and poor work habits. To reduce the risk of injury, follow these precautions: • • • • • Stand, stretch, and move around several times every hour. Every once in a while, work on a different task with your hands. Avoid repetitive motions. Use shortcut keys to move efficiently and avoid repetitive, awkward movement. Type gently and lightly. Relax your shoulders and keep your elbows at your sides. Adjust the keyboard so that you don’t have to stretch to reach it. Adjust your position so that you don’t have to bend your wrists to type; avoid placing your wrists on a sharp edge. If you feel discomfort of numbness in your hands, wrists, arms, shoulders, neck or back while typing, get the advice of a qualified medical professional.
