Planet Technology BT-420U - Manual (Page 32)

Overview
The Headset application allows this computer to use a Bluetooth headset (or any
other device that offers the Bluetooth headset service) as the audio input and output
device for this computer.
Possible uses include:
‧ If this computer has on-board telephone hardware, a Bluetooth headset might
be used as the audio input/output device to make/receive telephone calls.
‧ If this computer has voice recognition capabilities, a Bluetooth headset might be
used as the audio input device.
Any other scenario that requires audio input/output can potentially take advantage of a
Bluetooth headset to replace a hardwired microphone and/or speakers.
Create a Headset connection
Establish a connection using one of these techniques:
‧ Windows system tray, Bluetooth icon
‧ From My Bluetooth Places
‧ Using the Bluetooth Setup Wizard
NOTE: Most Bluetooth headsets “ring” when a connection is attempted; answer the
ring to complete the connection and begin using the headset as the audio input/output
device for this computer.
Close a Headset connection
‧ In My Bluetooth Places, right-click the service name and select Disconnect.
or
‧ If the connection was established from the Bluetooth icon in the Windows sys-
tem tray; click the Bluetooth icon, select Quick Connect, Headset and then select
the device that is providing the service (active connections have a checkmark in
front of them)
Configure
The Bluetooth Configuration Panel > Client Applications > Headset > General tab
provides options to configure:
‧ The application name—to change it, highlight the existing name and enter the
new name.
‧ Enable or disable secure connection. To enable secure connection, place a
checkmark in the box.

on the Bluetooth Exchange Folder (and the folders and files it contains) of a remote
device.

branch, select a device and expand that branch to view the Bluetooth Exchange
Folder of the remote device.
