4 OPERATION OF THE RADIO DEVICES
Wireless connection with Bluetooth and WiFi technology
The wireless connectivity with Bluetooth and WiFi technology supplies a standard and
reliable method to exchange information between different devices, using radio waves. Other
than TEXA products, even products such as cellular phones, portable devices, computers,
printers, cameras, Pocket PCs, etc. use this type of technology.
The Bluetooth and WiFi interfaces look for compatible electronic devices according to the
radio signal they emit and establish a connection between them. TEXA tools select and only
prompt you with compatible TEXA devices. This does not exclude the presence of other
sources of communication or disturbance.
THE EFFICIENCY AND THE QUALITY OF THE BLUETOOTH AND WiFi
COMMUNICATIONS MAY BE INFLUENCED BY THE PRESENCE OF RADIO
DISTURBANCE SOURCES. THE COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL HAS BEEN
DEVELOPED TO MANAGE THESE TYPES OF ERRORS; HOWEVER, IN THESE CASES
COMMUNICATION MAY BECOME DIFFICULT AND CONNECTION MAY REQUIRE
SEVERAL ATTEMPTS.
SHOULD THE WIRELESS CONNECTION BE CRITICAL AND COMPROMISE A REGULAR
COMMUNICATION, THE SOURCE OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL ELECTROMAGNETIC
DISTURBANCE MUST BE IDENTIFIED AND ITS INTENSITY MUST BE REDUCED.
Position the tool so that the radio devices it is equipped with can work properly. In particular,
do not cover it with any shielding materials or with any metallic materials in general.
