Bluetooth partnerships
A Bluetooth partnership is a
relationship that you create between
your device and another Bluetooth-
enabled device in order to exchange
information in a secure manner.
Creating a partnership between two
devices involves entering the same
personal identification number (PIN)
or Passkey on both devices. Creating a
partnership between two devices is a
one-time process. Once a partnership
is created, the devices can recognize
the partnership and exchange
information without entering a PIN
again. Make sure the two devices are
within a range of 10 meters from one
another, and Bluetooth is turned on
and in discoverable mode.
To create a Bluetooth partnership
1. On your device, tap Start > Settings
> Connections tab > Bluetooth.
2. On the Devices tab, tap New
Partnership. Your device searches for
other Bluetooth devices and displays
them in the box.
3. Tap the desired device name in the
box.
4. Tap Next.
5. Enter a passkey to establish a secure
connection. The passkey must be
between 1 and 16 characters.
6. Tap Next.
7. Enter the same passkey that is
entered on the other device.
You can, however, edit and enter a
new name for the other device.
