In the Today screen, the Bluetooth icon changes to

to indicate the handheld cannot

send or receive Bluetooth wireless signals.

Making the handheld discoverable

If you want to pair with another Bluetooth device, or if
you want to use the handheld as a host device, you need
to make the handheld Discoverable. A discoverable
device can be detected by other devices when they scan.

To make the handheld discoverable:

1.

Tap /

Settings / Connections / Bluetooth.

2.

Tap the Accessibility tab.

3.

To enable other devices to connect to the
handheld, select the Allow other devices to connect
check box and then select the All devices option or
the Paired devices only option.

4.

To enable other devices to see the handheld when they scan for other Bluetooth
devices, select the Other devices can discover me check box.

Configuring host services

To provide a host service, turn on the Bluetooth radio
(see

page 62

) and then make the device Discoverable

(see

page 63

). If the service is a serial port service, you

may need to add or configure the service. Tap

/Settings / Connections / Bluetooth and then tap the

Services tab.

Other host services such as File Transfer and
Information Exchange do not require any configuration
because they use either pre-assigned ports, or use the My
Documents folder for file transfers. Other services
already have authentication and encryption enabled.

Pairing with a Bluetooth-enabled device

Pairing the handheld with another Bluetooth-enabled device creates a permanent
security bond between the devices, which helps to exchange information securely
between the devices. The paired relationship is established when two devices create
and exchange a link key. Once the relationship is established, the handheld and the
other Bluetooth device only need to have their Bluetooth radios turned on to exchange
information; they do not need to be in discoverable mode.
