Using Bluetooth
Connecting to Other Devices
Use ActiveSync, serial and dial-up connections to communicate
with other Bluetooth devices. Establish a partnership with a cell
phone and set up the Bluetooth services it offers.
Identifying the Communications Port
You can identify the virtual COM ports used to create a
serial port
connection. You may need to identify these COM
ports for activities such as printing.
Use the inbound COM port when other devices initiate a serial
connection. Use the outbound COM port when you initiate a
serial connection to another device.
To identify the communications port:
1. From the
Today
screen, tap the
Bluetooth
icon >
Bluetooth
Settings.
2. Tab over to the
Serial Port
tab and tap it.
3. Note the names of your inbound and outbound COM ports.
4. Tap
OK.
Establishing an ActiveSync Connection
You can set up an ActiveSync partnership with a
Bluetooth-enabled computer by first setting up your computer,
then setting up your iPAQ Pocket PC.
If you own an HP Evo Notebook or Desktop computer, you can
use the Bluetooth Multiport Module presinstalled on that
computer with your iPAQ Pocket PC.
If you are using other Bluetooth modules or cards on your
computer, refer to the Bluetooth Configuration Manager or
Settings for similar setup procedures, then skip to
“Setting Up an
ActiveSync Partnership on Your iPAQ Pocket PC.”
