television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
-- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
-- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
CAUTION:
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the grantee of this
device could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

1 Safety, Care and Regulatory Information
Important safety information
Read and follow all instructions marked on the product and in the documentation before you
operate your system. Retain all safety and operating instructions for future use.
Switch off the radio components (BLUETOOTH or wireless LAN) when you are in a hospital,
an operating room or near a medical electronics system. The transmitted radio waves can
impair the operation of the medical devices.
Keep the radio components (BLUETOOTH or wireless LAN) at least 20 cm from a
pacemaker, as otherwise the proper operation of the pacemaker may be impaired by radio
waves.
The transmitted radio waves can cause an unpleasant humming in hearing aids.
Do not let the radio components (BLUETOOTH or wireless LAN) work near flammable gases
or into hazardous environments (e.g. paintshops), as the transmitted radio waves can cause
an explosion or a fire.
Aircraft
To prevent interference with communication systems, do not use this product on the ground
without the permission from the crew.

2 Introduction to GN-BTD01
The BluetoothTM wireless technology standard has been adopted the world
over by countless companies. The BluetoothTM wireless technology makes it
possible to transmit signals over short distances between telephones,
computers and other devices. The technology will replace many of the
proprietary cables we use in the home and office to connect devices together:
Telephones, printers, PDA's, desktop and laptop computers, fax machines,
keyboards, joysticks.
Gigabyte proudly introduces our Bluetooth series product-- GN-BTD01, that
provides the solution for seamless integration of Bluetooth wireless
technology to the user’s desktop or laptop computer. It will enable wireless
connections to the Internet and between Bluetooth-enabled devices (e.g.,
handheld computers, cellular phones, and personal computers)

GN-BTD01 Bluetooth User’s Guide
Bluetooth Neighborhood --- uses Windows shell extensions
capabilities to integrate GN-BTD01 with Windows Explorer and
provide a graphical user interface (“user interface”) that enables the
user to :
Search for Bluetooth-enabled devices (“device inquiry”).
Discover and manage (start / stop) Bluetooth wireless connections
(available services include Dial-up Networking, Bluetooth Serial
Port, Network Access, FTP, Inbox, Fax, and Information
Synchronization.).
Configure properties of local services and client applications.
2.4 Bluetooth Neighborhood User Interface
The GN-BTD01 Bluetooth Neighborhood user interface provides several
ways to execute commands and perform tasks:
Icons may be double-clicked to perform a default action. For
example, double-click the Generic Serial service and a connection
starts; double-click Generic Serial service a second time and the
connection stops.
Icons may be right-clicked to display a context menu. An option is
chosen to perform the desired action.
Links (Visible only in the web page view) can be chosen to execute
a command.
Menus can be displayed and options chosen to perform the desired
task.
2.5 Operating System Environment
The GN-BTD01 may be installed under several different Windows operating
systems. These include:
• Windows 2000
• Windows XP
