Discoverable — The Bluetooth radio is turned on, and any
other Bluetooth devices within range (about 10 meters) can
detect your device and attempt to beam information to it,
establish a bond, or use a Bluetooth service. In this mode,
other devices can detect your device, whether or not a bond
has been created. However, in order to receive a beam from
another device, you must accept it on your device.
If you no longer want your device to be discoverable, select
Off to turn off the radio; or On to leave the radio on but not
allow detection by other devices.
Bonds
A bond is a relationship that you create between your
Smartphone and another Bluetooth device in order to ex-
change information more securely. Creating a bond involves
entering the same personal identication number (PIN) on
the two devices you want to bond. Once a bond is created,
the devices recognize the bond and are able to exchange
information without your entering a PIN again.
To create a bond:
1. Make sure that the two devices are within 10 meters of
each other and that Bluetooth is in discoverable mode on
both devices.
2. When in the Home screen, select Settings > Bluetooth
> Bluetooth from the Start menu.
3. Select Devices from the menu, and then New. Your device
searches for other Bluetooth devices and displays them
in the list.
4. Select the device you want, then select Add.
5. In PIN, enter a PIN of between 1 and 16 characters, and
select Done.
6. Enter the same PIN on the other device.
7. If desired, enter the name of the other device in Name,
and select Done.
