Using the Bluetooth™ functionality
The Bluetooth™ wireless technology enables you to establish wireless communication between your
notebook and other Bluetooth™ devices such as a notebook, a mobile phone or a modem station without
any cable within a 10 to 100 metres range in open space.
All Bluetooth™ communications are made in conjunction with the BlueSpace software (See Using
BlueSpace in the Software Guide).
To connect to a Bluetooth™ device, proceed as follows:
1 Turn on the Wireless switch on the left side of your notebook.
The Switch wireless devices dialog box appears.
2 Select the Bluetooth™ option button.
3 Click OK.
The Bluetooth™ icon appears in the taskbar.
✍ Read the Bluetooth™ Safety Flyer before using the Bluetooth™ functionality.
The 2.4 GHz band with which Bluetooth™ devices or wireless LAN devices work, is used by various devices. Bluetooth™ devices use the technology
to minimize the interference from other devices that use the same wave length. Communication speed and distances can be inferior to the standard
values. Interference from other devices may also stop communications.
The Bluetooth™ modem station (PCGA-BM1) software is available on your notebook’s hard drive. If you want to use the Bluetooth™ modem station,
read the Bluetooth™ modem station documentation.
! The Bluetooth™ functions may not work depending on the devices or the software version used.
! When you purchase Bluetooth™ devices, check their operating conditions.
