• File Transfer Service (OBEX FTP) via Bluetooth® wireless technology,
for data transfer to OBEX FTP enabled devices, such as a PC, Pocket-
PCs or SmartPhones
An I

™ equipped with Bluetooth® wireless technology uses a
Bluetooth® Class 2 module. This module is theoretically capable of com-
munication up to 10 meters (30 ft) away from another unit equipped with
Bluetooth® technology. Because of the I

™ metal case and other
environmental influences, the practical transmission range is rated up to 5
meters (15 ft). Extending the distance beyond the rated value can cause com-
munication errors and loss of established communications.
All features can be enabled or disabled using the provided PC software. If a
feature does not work on the I

™, make sure it is enabled. Refer
