Before communication
What is Bluetooth wireless technology?
Bluetooth wireless technology allows communication between various Bluetooth
devices without using cables. Devices which can use this technology include PCs,
computer peripheral devices, PDAs, and mobile phones. This omnidirectional
communication system enables connection even if a Bluetooth device is in a bag, for
example, or there is an obstacle between devices.
Also, the Bluetooth wireless technology has advanced security functions, such as
scrambled frequencies and data encryption.
Authentication
The authentication routine can block unspecified users’ access to this network. When
attempting communication with an unregistered Bluetooth device, the devices must
first be registered with each other by entering a common passkey to each device. When
connecting with a previously registered Bluetooth device, communication starts
without you entering the passkey.
Tip on “Passkey”
The passkey is a 1 to 16 character identification number needed to allow two Bluetooth
devices to communicate with each other. The connection will be permitted after
entering the passkey. This “Passkey” is sometimes referred to as the “Bluetooth
passkey”, “PIN”, “Bluetooth PIN”, etc.
Radio wave indication
indicates the radio wave status of the connected Bluetooth device. (Use this
indication as a guide.)
