Bluetooth Devices
Select models only
Some models of the HP TouchSmart PC are Bluetooth-enabled, so that you can connect all kinds of
Bluetooth-enabled wireless devices. Bluetooth devices create a personal area network (PAN), which
connects other Bluetooth devices, such as computers, phones, printers, headsets, speakers, and cameras.
In a PAN, each device communicates directly with the other devices; the devices must be relatively close
together.
To enable a Bluetooth device:
1 Refer to your Bluetooth device’s instructions to make it “discoverable” (it sends out a radio signal).
2 Click the Start button, Control Panel, and then click Hardware and Sound. Find your Bluetooth
device and follow onscreen instructions.
3 If your Bluetooth device is a printer, tap the Start button, then Control Panel, and then tap
Hardware and Sound. Tap Printers. Tap Add a printer.
TV Tuner and Windows Media Center
Select models only
Watch and record your favorite TV programs by using Windows Media Center. Menus and features in
Windows Media Center are accessible through touch, remote control, keyboard, and mouse. TV tuners
and remote controls are included in select models only.
