Creating trusted pairs
After you set up a connection with your computer or other accessory devices with
Bluetooth wireless technology, you may want to set up other trusted devices, such as
a friend’s handheld. When your Treo recognizes a trusted device, it automatically
accepts communication, bypassing the discovery and authentication process.
1. Go to Applications and select Bluetooth .
2. Select Setup Devices.
3. Select Trusted Devices.
4. Select Add Device. The Discovery icon appears to indicate that the discovery
process is active.
5. Select the device you want to add as a trusted device. If the device you want to add
does not appear on the discovery results list, select Find More to search again.
6. Enter the same passkey on your phone and th e other device and select OK.
IMPORTANT: Some devices with Bluetooth wireless technology have a built-in
passkey; others let you choose the passkey. In either case, you must use the same
passkey on both the other device and your phone. See the documentation for the
device with Bluetooth wireless technology for additional information.
