Performing a HotSync Operation
After inserting this Bluetooth Module in your CLIÉ handheld, you can
perform a wireless HotSync operation between your CLIÉ handheld
and a Bluetooth compatible Windows computer.
Performing a HotSync Operation by Bluetooth
Communications for the First Time
When you perform a HotSync operation for the first time between
your CLIÉ handheld and a Bluetooth compatible computer, you need
to set the communication method and bond the computer to your
CLIÉ handheld.
The following is the procedure of performing a HotSync operation by
Bluetooth communications for the first time. From the second time,
see “Performing a HotSync Operation for the Second Time and
Thereafter” (page 21).
z What is “bonding”?
To enable Bluetooth communication between this Bluetooth Module and
another Bluetooth compatible device, the device must be identified. This process
is referred to as “bonding,” which is necessary to prevent access from
unauthorized Bluetooth compatible devices. A common Passkey is used to bond
the device to this Bluetooth Module.
z What is a Passkey?
A Passkey is a secret code entered by the user to enable two Bluetooth
compatible devices to communicate. When the same alphanumeric string is
entered at both devices, communication becomes possible. The Passkey may be
changed for every communication session as long as the same one is used for
both devices. Once a valid link has been established, communication is possible
without further Passkey input for a preset period of time.
