2.3 Search for Other Bluetooth Enabled Devices

Before it can connect, your computer must first detect other Bluetooth enabled devices in range.

Initiate a Device Search

1) Make sure that the Bluetooth enabled device you wish to connect to is turned on, has sufficient
battery power, and is set in discoverable mode. Have device passkeys ready. If necessary, you
may also need to enable the service you want to use on the remote device. Refer to the remote
device’s user documentation for instructions.

If you haven’t done so already, you may also want to assign the device a Bluetooth name. Refer
to the device’s user documentation for instructions.

2) In the Main Window, click on the red ball to start the device search. Alternatively, you can
click My Bluetooth | My Device Inquiry or View | Refresh Devices or press F5.

3) After a few seconds, an icon will appear around the center ball for each Bluetooth enabled
device detected within the radio range.

NOTE:

The Main Window can display only eight discovered devices at a time. If BlueSoleil
discovers more than eight devices, use the mouse scroll button or scroll bar on the right side
of the Main Window to view the remaining devices discovered by BlueSoleil.

To sort the devices by device name, device address, or device type, click View | Arrange
