Warning: It is not recommended that Bluetooth communication be

used while logging GPS data to use for post processing. This scenario
requires constant and reliable communications between the data

collector and the receiver, which can only occur when using a
communication cable.

Bluetooth Setup in Windows

This section describes how to enable Bluetooth in Windows and create

a partnership with the device the data collector will communicate

with.

Bluetooth can only be used on a Ranger when the following two

requirements are met:

• The peripheral hardware has Bluetooth built in and is

explicitly supported by Survey Pro.

• Your Ranger includes the Bluetooth hardware.

Bluetooth hardware is included on the Ranger 500X, optional on the

Ranger 300X and not supported on the original Ranger. The

following two steps explain how to determine if Bluetooth hardware is
installed on a Ranger 300X.
1. Exit Survey Pro if it is running to return to the Windows

operating system.
