Configuring the Out-of-Range Distance

You can adjust how far your phone must be from the computer before the computer recognizes it as
out of range and displays the proximity lock notification. In the Bluetooth Device Control window, click
Settings, then drag the slider bar closer to the computer or the lock. The closer the bar is to the
computer, the closer the phone must be to prevent the computer from locking.
