The Bluetooth radio is turned on, and all of the other
Bluetooth devices within range (about 10 meters) can detect your
device and attempt to beam information to it, establish a bond, or use a
Bluetooth service. In this mode, other devices can detect your device
whether or not a bond has been created; however, in order to receive a
beam from another device, you must accept it on your device, as
described in
Receiving a Bluetooth Beam

About Bonds
A bond is a relationship that you create between your Pocket PC and
another Bluetooth device in order to help exchange information in a
secure manner. Creating a bond involves entering the same PIN on the
two devices you want to bond. Once a bond is created, the devices need
only have their Bluetooth radios turned on to exchange information; they
do not need to be in discoverable mode. For instructions on creating a
bond, see
Create a Bond
. For more information about modes, see
About
Bluetooth Modes
.
You need only create a bond once between two devices. Thereafter, they
recognize the bond and are able to exchange information without your
entering a PIN again. For more information about exchanging
information with other devices, see
