Chapter 4 Using Your Motion Tablet PC

Pairing a Device (Bluetooth Keyboard)

In addition to discovery, the installation of many Bluetooth devices requires the pairing of the external device (such as a keyboard) with the Tablet PC. Pairing lets you avoid entering access information each time you connect to the device. Paired devices share a unique “link key,” which they exchange each time they connect. Once paired, devices stay paired, even if they are out of range or not working, until you unpair them (see “Unpairing Devices”).

The following steps describe how to pair a Bluetooth keyboard, but are similar for other Bluetooth devices.

1.Repeat Steps 1-10 in the Set Up a Device section for this device (Bluetooth keyboard).

2.Highlight the device in the Entire Bluetooth Neighborhood window. (In this example, a BT keyboard.)

3.Right click on the device

and tap Pair Device from the pop-up menu or tap

Establish Pairing in the Bluetooth Tasks window.

4. One of two “Pin Code” win-

dows may appear: Bluetooth Security Set Up and Bluetooth PIN Code Request windows. Both prompt you to enter a Pin Code for

pairing the device. After you successfully enter

pin code, tap Fin-

ish. The Entire Bluetooth Neighborhood

appears.

This completes the Bluetooth setup procedure. You can begin using your

Bluetooth device.
