Instruction Manual
PAIR BLUETOOTH DEVICES
- Go to App Drawer | Settings | Connected devices | Connection preferences | Bluetooth . Tap the switch to On to scan for available Bluetooth devices nearby. Scroll through the list and tap the device you would like to pair.
- The Bluetooth pairing request window opens. Depending on the pairing settings of the Bluetooth device, you may need to enter a passkey or confirm the assigned passkey on the device to pair if a smart pairing method is applied. Enter/confirm the passkey on the device to pair.
- Once pairing is done, you can find the Bluetooth device in App Drawer | Settings | Connected devices | Previously connected devices.
Note:
If the device you would like to pair with is not listed, make sure Bluetooth
visibility is enabled on the device.
UNPAIR BLUETOOTH DEVICE
To unpair a paired device:
- In the Previously connected devices list, tap the settings button next to the paired device.
- On the Device Details screen, tap FORGET.
USE NEAR-FIELD COMMUNICATIONS
Near field communications (NFC) uses close proximity (4 cm or less) to establish radio communication through electromagnetic fields. With NFC enabled, the mobile computer can collect information from NFC tags, exchange information with other NFC-supported devices, and even change information on the NFC tag if authorized.
Before starting to communicate through NFC, perform the following:
- Go to App Drawer (All Application) | Settings | Connected devices | Connection preferences.
- On the “Connection preferences” page, tap to switch on “NFC” .
You can tap on “Adjust NFC power” to select the NFC power between “Full power” and “Low power”.
PAIR WITH NFC-ENABLED BLUETOOTH DEVICES
-
On the device, you would like to pair with, make sure NFC is enabled and Bluetooth discovery is enabled.
-
Hold the mobile computer without covering the antenna area.
-
Move the mobile computer in proximity to the device for pairing. A screen notification will appear to indicate that the pairing is successful.
COMMUNICATION WITH NFC
- On the mobile computer, launch an NFC-enabled application.
- Hold the mobile computer without covering the antenna area.
- Place the mobile computer close to the NFC tag or device until the application indicates data transfer is complete.
