Bluetooth Setup
Bluetooth is a global standard for wireless connectivity for digital devices and is intended for Personal Area
Networks. The technology is based on a short-range radio link that operates in the ISM band at 2.4 GHz. When
two Bluetooth-equipped devices come within a 10 meter range of each other, they can establish a connection.
Because Bluetooth utilizes a radio-based link, it does not require a line-of-sight connection in order to commu-
nicate.
•Tap on Start>Settings. Tap on the Connections Folder icon followed by the Bluetooth icon.
Turning the Bluetooth Radio On
Before pairing a headset or any other Bluetooth device with your Workabout Pro4, make certain that the Blue-
tooth device power is enabled and that the radio is switched on; it is enabled by default. If, for some reason, it
has been disabled:
• Scroll to the Mode tab.
• Tap in the checkbox next to Turn on Bluetooth.
• Turn your Bluetooth device on and place it within a few feet of your Workabout Pro4.
• If needed, set your Bluetooth device to visible (discoverable) so that the hand-held can detect it and estab-
lish a connection.
The Devices Tab - Scanning for Bluetooth Devices
• Scroll to the Device tab.
