Bluetooth Bonds (Pairing)

A bond is an encryption key that is generated when
two Bluetooth devices exchange a common PIN. This
key verifies the identity of each device, and en crypts
any data transferred between the devices. Once the
PIN is exchanged, the devices do not have to be in
discoverable mode in order to exchange information.
You only need to create a bond once between two
devices.
If you search for devices and you select a device that
you are currently bonded with from the list of found
devices, then the current bond with that device will be
voided. You will have to re-establish the bond.
Your i576 requires that you create a bond in order to
connect with another device. However, you can choose
to establish bonds with devices without connecting.
Bluetooth PINs
Bluetooth devices exchange PINs (also known as
passkeys or pass codes) in order to establish
encrypted transfers between them. When prompted,
enter the Bluetooth PINs.
Some Bluetooth devices ship with Bluetooth PINs.
Please refer to your Bluetooth device’s user guide to
locate this information.
If a device ships without a Bluetooth PIN, then you can
enter any PIN for that device. To establish a connection
to that device, enter the same PIN for both your phone
and the device. For example, if you enter 1234 as the
device’s PIN, then enter 1234 as your phone’s PIN.
In some cases, you may not be required to enter the
Bluetooth PIN.
Note Devices are automatically granted permission during
the ten seconds after bonding.
