About Bluetooth

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology capable of exchanging information over a distance of about 30 feet without requiring a physical connection.

Unlike infrared, you don't need to line up the devices to beam information with Bluetooth. If the devices are within a range of one another, you can exchange information between them, even if they are located in different rooms.

Bluetooth Service Profiles

Actually, the Bluetooth specification is a protocol that describes how the short-range wireless technology works, whereas individual profiles describe the services supported by individual devices. Profiles reduce the chance that different devices will not work together.

•For more information, refer to "Bluetooth Service Profiles" on page 143.

Toggling Bluetooth On/Off

When the Bluetooth radio is turned on, you can use the Bluetooth features available. When the Bluetooth radio is turned off, you cannot send or receive information via Bluetooth. To save battery life or in situations where radio use is prohibited, such as airline traveling, you can turn off the Bluetooth wireless technology.
