Bluetooth partnerships

A Bluetooth partnership is a relationship that you create between your

device and another Bluetooth-enabled device in order to exchange

information in a secure manner. Creating a partnership between two

devices involves entering the same personal identification number

(PIN) or Passkey on both devices. Creating a partnership between

two devices is a one-time process. Once a partnership is created,

the devices can recognize the partnership and exchange information

without entering a PIN again. Make sure the two devices are within a

range of 10 meters from one another, and Bluetooth is turned on and in

discoverable mode.
