To prepare for Bluetooth connections

Before you use your computer to access other Bluetooth devices, you should configure some basic settings.

1.Make sure Bluetooth communication is turned on—see the previous topic.

2.Double-click the Bluetooth icon in the taskbar.

3.In the menu bar, click Bluetooth, Device Configuration. (This menu is available only while Bluetooth folders are selected.)

4.On the General tab, check the following settings:

Give your computer a unique name that will identify it to other Bluetooth users. Set the computer type to Laptop.

Select the security mode you want to use.

5.On the Information Exchange tab, check the following settings:

Check the directory you want to make available to other Bluetooth users for sharing files, both sent and received.

Check the directory where you want to store your business card file so you can easily send it to other Bluetooth users.

Check the inbox directory where you want delivered files from other Bluetooth users to be stored automatically.

Detailed information about these and other advanced settings are included in the online help.

To create your business card, you can open Microsoft Outlook, then open the address book and create a new contact. After entering your personal information, click File, Export To vCard File and store the file in your business card directory.
