7.12 Bluetooth Peripherals
The Ikôn is equipped with a Bluetooth radio, making it possible to communicate with a
variety of Bluetooth peripherals, including GSM/GPRS handsets, scanners, printers and
so on.
Psion Teklogix provides built-in support for the Bluetooth peripherals listed below.
•
GSM/GPRS universal handset
• Bluetooth printer
• Bluetooth headset
Keep in mind that Bluetooth and IEEE 802.11b/g radios both operate in the 2.4GHz band.
Although the Ikôn includes features to minimize interference, performance of the system
will not be optimal if you use both radios simultaneously. Typically, when both radios
operate in the Ikôn at the same time, they cannot transmit simultaneously–this has a negative
impact on overall system throughput. To minimize the impact on the backbone 802.11g net-
work, Psion Teklogix recommends using Bluetooth peripherals that have low transaction
rates (such as printers and scanners).
Refer to “Bluetooth Setup” on page 198 for information about setting up your Bluetooth
devices for communication. In addition, review the manual shipped with your
Bluetooth device to determine the method used to pair with the Ikôn host.
7.13 Digital Camera
The Ikôn can be equipped with an optional digital camera that can take still pictures or short
video clips. Refer to “Pictures & Videos” on page 101 for details about using the camera.
The Pictures & Videos applet allows the operator to activate the camera for still shots or
video clips. It also provides a number of tools to crop photos, adjust picture contrast and
brightness, zoom in and out of photos, and save your adjustments.
Important: The “Pictures & Videos” program can only display .bmp or .jpg formats.
Photos in other formats will need to be converted on your PC before they
can be transferred to the Ikôn PDA.
