About Bluetooth® pairings
Pairing your handheld with another Bluetooth
wireless technology-enabled device establishes an
association that enables a wireless connection
when your handheld is within range of the other
device (a typical range is approximately 10
meters).
After you pair with a device, you can set your
handheld to connect with that device without
prompting you.

the correct mode for pairing.
