CONNECTION

Bluetooth is a technology enabling you to transfer data wirelessly over

short  distances between many different types of  devices. Bluetooth-

enabled  devices  include  computers,  cell  phones,  tablets,  wireless

headsets, and keyboards.
To use Bluetooth, you must ensure the following:
1.Bluetooth is enabled on both devices.
2.Your devices are "paired" (or connected).

Enabling and disabling Bluetooth

The  Bluetooth  adapter  must  be  enabled  on  both  devices.  For  your

computer,  this  may  be  an  external  switch,  a  software  setting,  or  a

separate Bluetooth dongle plugged into the computer’s USB port (if no

internal Bluetooth adapter is available).

Enable Bluetooth and add a device

Every  new  device  must  first  be  "paired"  with  your  computer’s

Bluetooth  adapter.  This  means  it  must  first  be  authenticated  for

security  purposes.  You  only  need  to  pair  once.  After  that,  simply

turning on the Bluetooth adapter of both devices will connect them.
Bluetooth  on  your  computer  is  disabled  by  default.  To  enable  your

computer’s Bluetooth adapter, do the following:
1.Press  the 

Windows  key

  or  select  the 

Windows  Start  button

  >

Settings

  > 

Bluetooth  &  devices

,  and  click  the  toggle  under

Bluetooth

 to enable/disable it.

2.Click on 

Add device 

then select the device that you want to add.

3.Your computer will automatically start searching for devices, as well

as make itself visible to other devices.

Note

Please check your devices owner’s manual to determine how to turn on its

Bluetooth adapter.
