Connecting to devices with
Bluetooth
®
wireless technology
With your phone’s built-in Bluetooth wireless technology, you can connect to a
number of devices with Bluetooth wireless technology such as a headset, printer,
or GPS receiver, as well as to other phones and handhelds with Bluetooth wireless
technology. If your computer is enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology, you can
synchronize wirelessly, and even use your phone as a wireless modem for your
computer.
Once you set up a connection with a device with Bluetooth wireless technology, you
can communicate with that device whenever it is within range. Bluetooth range is up
to 30 feet dependent upon environmental conditions; including obstacles, radio
interference from nearby electronic equipment, and other factors.
Connecting to a headset with Bluetooth wireless technology
1. Go to Applications
and select Bluetooth
.
2. Select On.
3. Enter a device name for your phone. This is the name other devices with Bluetooth
wireless technology see when they connect to your phone.
4. Select the Discoverable pick list and select one of the following:
•
Yes:
Nearby devices with Bluetooth wireless technology can find your phone
and request a connection. You can accept or refuse the connection request.
•
No:
Only devices with which you’ve already formed a trusted pair can find
your phone. New devices cannot request a connection.
Go to www.palmOne.com/
us/support/bluetooth/
treo650_bluetooth_
compatibility.html for a list
of compatible devices.
If you’re using a hands-free
device with Bluetooth
wireless technology and it
is within range (up to 30
feet), your smartphone
automatically routes all
calls to the hands-free
device instead of to the
handset. When a call
comes in, your smartphone
rings and the headset
beeps. Even if you pick up
the call, the call goes to the
headset.
For the phone to be
discoverable, the Bluetooth
setting must be On and the
Discoverable setting must
be “Yes”.
