Using Bluetooth 9–9
After two devices are paired, they have a trusted relationship with each
other. No additional input is needed from the user. Therefore, connections
and activities can be performed between the paired devices without
constant authorization from the user.
NOTE: The remote device must have Bluetooth turned on and set up to
allow discovery before the connection can occur. For more information,
refer to ”Setting Accessibility Properties.”
To pair devices:
1. From the Today screen on the HP iPAQ, tap the iPAQ Wireless
icon in the Command bar > Bluetooth > Manager.
2. Tap Tools > Paired devices.
3. Tap Add.
4. Tap the Lookup icon.
5. Tap the device name as it appears on the screen.
6. Create a password in the Passkey field so the devices can
be paired.
7. Tap OK.
8. Enter the same password into the other device.
9. Tap OK.
NOTE: Some devices, such as mobile phones, need to be placed in a
mode to accept a bond from another device. Refer to that device’s user
instructions for more information.
Unpairing Devices
You can remove a paired relationship between devices.

Bluetooth devices. Establish a partnership with a cell phone and set up the
Bluetooth services it offers.

connection. You may need to identify these COM ports for activities such
as printing.
