If your Basic Braille Plus features a Bluetooth transmission module, you can also establish
a wireless connection between the Basic Braille Plus and a computer or a cell phone, if
they are equipped with wireless Bluetooth technology. You need to make sure that the
wireless Bluetooth interface on your Basic Braille Plus is active, by enabling the option
“Bluetooth on” in the configuration menu like described in chapter 3.4 Configuration Mode.
The wireless transmission radius is approximately 10 meters (10 yards or 33 feet).
