Exchange Business Cards
Send a Contact
Send a File
Browse Remote Device
Receive Contact or File
Enable File Sharing
The first four operations — exchange business cards, send a contact, send a file, and browse remote device — are client-oriented. They involve initiating an object exchange.
The last two operations — receive contact or file and enable file sharing — are server-oriented. They involve accepting objects in an exchange initiated by another Bluetooth device.
Important!
If you have not done so already, be sure to run the OBEX Installer from the Socket Bluetooth Card Installation CD. Otherwise, you will not be able to perform any OBEX operations with the Bluetooth Card.
After you install Socket OBEX, the Transfer via Bluetooth option will appear in the Bluetooth menu for you to select OBEX operations.

Appendix B Safety and Usage Tips
About Bluetooth and Health
Bluetooth wireless technology allows you to use short-range radio signals to connect a variety of devices, such as mobile phones, Pocket PCs, notebook computers, printers, LAN access points, and many other devices at home or work. These radio signals replace the cables that have traditionally connected these devices.
Bluetooth products have small radio transmitters and receivers. Output power is normally very low, only 1 mW (1/1000 of a watt). This gives a working range of approximately 10 meters.
The maximum exposure levels from Bluetooth products are far below recommended safety guidelines. At most, typical Bluetooth devices (1mW) reach only one percent of the prescribed safety levels.
CompactFlash Card
Product Care
Do not expose your product to liquid, moisture or extreme humidity.
Do not expose your product to extreme high or low temperatures.
Do not expose your product to lit candles, cigarettes, or cigars, or to
open flames, etc.
Do not drop, throw or try to bend the product, as rough treatment could damage it.
Do not paint your product, as the paint could obstruct parts and prevent normal use.
Do not attempt to disassemble your product: a broken warranty seal will void the warranty. The product does not contain consumer serviceable components. Should your Bluetooth Card need service, please contact Socket technical support at: support@socketcom.com
Treat your product with care. Keep in a clean and dust-free place.
Changes or modifications of this product, not expressly approved by
Socket, may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Antenna Care
Do not place a metallic shield around your Bluetooth Card since it will reduce the radio transmission efficiency.
.
APPENDIX B: SAFETY AND USAGE TIPS | 73
Efficient Use
For optimum performance, please make sure that there is no metal surrounding your Bluetooth Card.
Driving
RF energy may affect some electronic systems in motor vehicles, such as car stereo, safety equipment, etc. Check with your vehicle manufacturer’s representative to be sure that your Bluetooth Card will not affect the electronic system in your vehicle.
Aircraft
Turn off your Bluetooth Card antenna before boarding any aircraft.
To prevent interference with communications systems, you must not use
your Bluetooth Card while the plane is in the air.
Do not use it on the ground without permission from the crew.
Radio Frequency Exposure
Your Bluetooth Card is a radio transmitter and receiver. When in operation, it communicates with a Bluetooth-equipped mobile phone, mobile computer or other device by receiving and transmitting radio frequency (RF) magnetic fields in the frequency range 2400 to 2500 MHz. The output power of the radio transmitter is 0.001 Watt.
The Bluetooth Card unit is designed to be in compliance with the RF exposure limits set by national authorities and international health agencies when installed or used separately from other antennas or radio transmitters.

SDIO Card
Product Care and Usage
The SDIO Bluetooth Card is susceptible to physical damage. Do not hit the corners of the card or forcefully pull the card out of your device, or permanent damage can occur!
Do not disassemble, modify or repair this unit. There is danger of fires, electrical shock, damage to the unit, and injury. Any repair is impossible. Do not remove the label and do not paste other labels. It may cause malfunction. Disassembling or remodeling this unit will invalidate the warranty and any other service plan.
Do not use this unit in an area where people wearing pacemakers may be nearby (such as in a crowded train).
People wearing a pacemaker should use the system at least 22 cm from the pacemaker.
Do not use this unit in medical facilities such as hospitals or in other places near medical electronic equipment. Likewise, do not attach medical electronic equipment to the Bluetooth Card.
Do not use the unit near automatic doors, fire detection devices, or other automatically controlled devices.
Do not use this unit in an aircraft or place where this unit may electromagnetically affect other devices.
If the Bluetooth SDIO Card gives any electromagnetic interference to other devices, either turn off the mobile computer containing the Bluetooth Card or eject the Bluetooth Card from the mobile computer.
Do not put the unit in your mouth.
Do not use this unit in a bath or any other area where liquid may be spilt
on the unit. Do not use this unit in an environment with high humidity or expose it to rain or mist. There is a risk of electrical shock.
