4.2 Bluetooth Service
Power
The POWER option enables the user to Enable or Disable the Bluetooth functionality of the
KDC. To use Bluetooth, this option must be set to enable.
However, like all devices enabled for Bluetooth, the KDC will constantly search to connect
with a Bluetooth host when set to enable. Constant searching for Bluetooth devices increases
power consumption.
Unless you are using Bluetooth with your KDC, this option should be set to disable.
IMPORTANT: To prevent unnecessary power problems, it is strongly recommended that the
POWER option be set to disable if the KDC is idle for an extended period of time.
Pairing
Before you are able to use Bluetooth, the KDC must be paired with the host device. This
pairing process needs to be completed only once with each host device. After pairing, the
host device will always recognize the KDC as a Bluetooth device, unless the Bluetooth
configuration is modified. If it is modified, you may need to pair the devices again.
IMPORTANT: The host device must be configured for Bluetooth before it may be paired to
the KDC.
KDC with Bluetooth Spec2.1+EDR does not prompt Pin code entry menu.
To pair the KDC with the host, follow these instructions:
1.
Select Pairing from the Bluetooth menu. The message “Pairing started…” will
be displayed.
2.
When prompted by the host device, enter the Security PIN “0000”.
3.
The “Pairing success” message will display when the Bluetooth connection is
successfully established. The connection must be established before the pairing
timeout of 60 seconds.

If “Pairing failed...” message displays, the Bluetooth connection with the host
device failed. If the message “Connected” displays, a Bluetooth connection is
established.

It is possible for the message “Pairing failed...” to display on the KDC while the
host device displays the “Connected” message. If this occurs, a Bluetooth
connection has been established.
