Reconnecting the Stowaway keyboard The above steps establish the Bluetooth wireless connection and bonding
between the mobile device and the keyboard for the first time. Keyboard
character input should be enabled as long as the connection is maintained.
Despite a high degree of reliability, the Bluetooth connection could break for
many reasons:
¾ The keyboard will power off when the right key panel is slid out and the
Bluetooth connection will be lost.
¾ As a power saving feature, the keyboard will be automatically powered
down after an idle period (when there is no activity for approximately 5
minutes).
¾ When the mobile device is turned off, the established Bluetooth
connection will be lost.
¾ When the mobile device and the keyboard are moved away from each
other beyond the wireless range (~10m), the connection will be lost.
When any of these conditions occurs, the
connection will be lost and the software will switch
to waiting mode. To restore the connection, make
sure the keyboard and mobile device are powered
on and in range, then tap any key on the
keyboard. See Automatic Reconnection from
Waiting Mode for further details. The connection
should be reestablished within 2-3 seconds but this
may be delayed if the Bluetooth system on the
mobile device is busy. For example, after the
mobile device is powered on, it may take 10 or
more seconds for the Bluetooth system to re-
initialize.
