Introduction
Bluetooth® is an open specification for a cutting-edge technology that enables short-range
wireless connections between desktop and laptop computers, personal digital assistants,
cellular phones, printers, scanners, digital cameras and even home appliances — on a
globally available band (2.4GHz) for worldwide compatibility. In a nutshell, Bluetooth unplugs
your digital peripherals and makes cable clutter a thing of the past. Now you can connect
your PDA or PC to Bluetooth® enabled mobile phone with this Bluetooth® adapter.
You can access e-mail & Internet no matter where you are with just a little help from your
Bluetooth® mobile phone.
Plus, when you are back in the office, you can hook yourself up to your office network as
well as communicate with other Bluetooth®-enabled devices.
To use your Bluetooth Adapter with a Bluetooth-enabled device, you first need to install the
Bluetooth Adapter. You then need to set up the service for that device using the
Settings
. Please see the appropriate sections in this User Guide for directions.

Limitations
(a) External Bluetooth drivers cannot be "signed drivers" to receive Microsoft WHQL logo.
Therefore, Microsoft's "Unsigned driver" warning messages may pop up during the software
installation, Bluetooth headset, mouse or keyboard setup. Please install the drivers and then
follow the on-screen instructions.
7
(b) On Swedish Windows XP, an error message (error code = 633) may be seen during dialup. Please update the operating system to Windows XP Service Pack 2 or refer to Microsoft
knowledge base #831717.
(c) Windows XP fast user switch is not supported. When switching to another user, the
Bluetooth Manager is not launched. Please log off before switching to another user.
(d) If "automatic FAX receiving" is enabled on Microsoft FAX manager, and if DUN, FAX, or
LAP profile icon is registered on Bluetooth Settings, and then Bluetooth's "resume from
standby" may take a couple of minutes to turn on.
(e) Windows 98 Second Edition: If the "Install New Modem" dialog pops up when setting up
a Bluetooth modem, mobile phone, or access point, please choose "Don't detect my modem;
I will select from a list". Otherwise, the system may freeze during the modem detection. If
the manual for your Bluetooth device does not specify a modem driver, then please select
"Standard 33600bps modem".
(f) Before connecting or disconnecting a Bluetooth headset, please exit any voice or soundrelated applications (e.g. Windows Messenger, Windows Media Player). The audio input
and output may not be switched properly if those applications are running. This same
precaution is important prior to system standby, hibernate or shutdown, and prior to turning

Basic settings
Methods for registering new devices using the Bluetooth Utility shall now be described.
A Bluetooth mouse shall be connected and set up using [Bluetooth Settings] as an example.
[Bluetooth Settings] provides two set-up methods: "Express Mode" and "Custom Mode."
−
Express Mode
[Bluetooth Settings] will automatically detect and register services. If several services
(profiles) are supported by the device the service that has been set to the highest priority
shall be selected and registered.
Express Mode is normally recommended for device set-up.
−
Custom Mode
After having been detected, the services supported by the device are displayed as a list,
from which you can select the desired function(s).
Custom Mode must be used to set up a device if, for example, you wish to use a modem
station to send a fax (because in Express Mode, the DUN profile will be automatically
selected since it has a higher priority than the FAX profile).
The differences between setting up the same device (a Bluetooth mouse) using Express
Mode and Custom Mode are described on the following pages.
