About the Bluetooth® Function

The Bluetooth® function enables the camera to wirelessly connect to a Bluetooth®-enabled computer, printer or other peripheral device. Bluetooth®-enabled devices can be wirelessly connected without cables. This technology is a popular method for sending and receiving data among various types of devices, such as computers, peripheral devices, and home appliances.

This camera has a Bluetooth® function that enables you to easily connect to a Bluetooth®-enabled printer, computer or other device to send images taken with the camera.

There are two ways to send image data using the Bluetooth® function.

•Send still images to a printer to have them printed (GP.157)

•Send and save still images to a computer (GP.166)

Caution------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

•Bluetooth®-enabled devices can connect at a maximum range of about 10 meters (33 feet). Keep the line-of-sight distance between the destination Bluetooth® device and the camera within about 10 meters (33 feet).

•The destination Bluetooth® device must support the following Bluetooth® Profiles. Please consult the manual that came with your Bluetooth® device.

•BIP (Basic Imaging Profile)

•OPP (Object Push Profile)

•SPP (Serial Port Profile)

•You can only use the Bluetooth® function to send still images (.JPG). You cannot send movies (.AVI) or text (.TIF). If there are still images with sounds (.JPG and

.WAV), only still images (.JPG) are sent.

•For Caplio 500SE-W, before sending an image, set [CHANGE COM] to [BT] on the Expanded Settings menu on the camera. (GP.193)
