Properties
feature allows
you to give a connected InterWrite Device the Name shown in the Devices List Window
(the Model 400 Pad is given an additional
Bluetooth Name
) and to program its
SoftKeys
.
AutoConnect is a property unique to Bluetooth-enabled InterWrite Devices. When
AutoConnect is enabled, the computer will scan continuously for this and other active,
AutoConnect-enabled Bluetooth Devices and attempt to connect them. Scanning stops
once a Device is detected and connected. Therefore, if you are connecting multiple
Devices, make sure they are all powered on, so all of the Devices will be detected by the
scan. The
Status
property will tell you whether the connection succeeded or failed. The
Availability
option indicates that a discovered Device is available for connection.
As soon as the Devices dialog is displayed, Device Manager
begins trying to connect to the
Remembered
Devices.
Once connected, your InterWrite Model 400 Pad is available as a system pointing device.
Your computer mouse can still be used as a pointing device.
