Creating, Ending, and Accepting a Bluetooth Partnership

You can create a partnership between your HP iPAQ and another device that has Bluetooth capabilities. Once you do this, the devices must have Bluetooth turned on but do not need to be discoverable for you to exchange information between them.

1.Be sure the two devices are turned on, discoverable, and within close range.

2.Tap Start > Settings > Connections tab > Bluetooth.

3.Tap Bluetooth Manager > New > Explore a Bluetooth Device. Your HP iPAQ searches for other devices with Bluetooth capabilities and displays them in the list.

4.Tap the name of the other device, and tap Next.
