Faxing from your computer via Bluetooth

®

You can use Bluetooth

®

to connect your computer (laptop, notepad or PC) to your phone

without using any cables. Your phone acts as a fax modem. You can use it for sending
and receiving faxes.
Once it is set up, whenever you send a fax from your computer it will use Bluetooth

®

to

connect to the phone, then your phone will dial the fax number.
To send and receive faxes you must subscribe to your network operator’s fax service.
This gives you a second number for receiving incoming faxes.
To set up your computer and phone you need to:
z Subscribe to fax service.
z Install Bluetooth on your computer. See Installing Bluetooth

®

on your computer on

page 125.

z Pair your computer with your phone. See Pairing your computer with your phone on

page 125.

z Install fax software on your computer, e.g. WinFax Pro (www.symantec.com).
z Install the Data Connection Software on your computer. See Installing the Data

Connection Assistant software on page 126.

z Set up your computer’s fax application software to send and receive faxes via your

phone. Ensure that you select the Panasonic X70 Bluetooth

®

modem port in your Fax

application.

Infrared dialup

You can use the infrared connection to transfer information between your phone and
another device with an infrared port. You can also use the infrared connection between
your phone and your computer to access the Internet and to send and receive faxes from
your computer.

Preparing for infrared connection

Place your phone and the other device within the effective range of the infrared
connection.



Ensure that there are no obstructions between the two devices.



Ensure that the infrared ports of the devices point at each other.



If you use a PC, you need to set up infrared connection on the PC.
For example, Start > Settings > Control Panel > Infrared > Options Tab
> Enable Infrared Communication.
