Changing Your Settings 108
Unlike infrared, you don't need to line up the devices to beam information with Bluetooth. If the devices are
within connectivity range of one another, you can exchange information between them, even if they are
located in different rooms.
The Bluetooth wireless technology settings menu provides the ability to view and change the device name,
show the visibility, and set the security for the device.
Note:
Bluetooth can also be accessed diredtly from the main menu. Press ➔ Bluetooth.
Activation
The activation option allows you to use the Bluetooth features available when Bluetooth is activated. When
the Bluetooth is deactivated, you cannot send or receive information via Bluetooth. To save battery life or in
situations where Bluetooth use is prohibited, you can turn off the Bluetooth wireless technology headset.
