Troubleshooting
I cannot communicate with the other device although the distance between both devices is
within 10 metres
The data transfer distance can be shorter than 10 meters depending on existing obstacles between the two devices, on radio
wave quality, on the operating system or the software used. Try to move your computer or to place both devices closer.

or it may not be able to communicate with your computer.
Check that the Bluetooth functionality of the device with which you want to communicate is on. See the other device's manual
for more details.
