2.4 Important information regarding
Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a wireless connection in the unlicensed
2.4 Ghz-ISM-Band (ISM: Industrial, Scientific, Medical).
This frequency range is not subject to any governmen-
tal laws and may be used in most countries without a
license. This results in many applications and devices
transmitting on this frequency band however. This can
cause frequency interference between these devices.
Depending on the environmental conditions, distur-
bance can occur in the Bluetooth connection, e. g. in
WLAN connections (WLAN: Wireless Local Area Net-
work), wireless telephones, radio-controlled thermom-
eters, radio-controlled garage door openers, radio-con-
trolled light switches or radio-controlled alarm systems.
i
Bluetooth can lead to interference in the band-
width of the WLAN-network. The antennas of Blue-
tooth and WLAN devices should be positioned at least
30 centimeters apart. Bluetooth-USB adapters and
WLAN must not be placed in adjacent USB sockets in
the PC/Laptop. A USB extension cable (special acces-
sories) should be used to ensure that the Bluetooth-
USB adapter is separate from the WLAN stick.
i
Generally, people who wear a pacemaker or other
essential electronic device should exercise extreme
caution when using wireless technology, as it may
impair the function of their particular device.
Pay attention to the following to ensure the best
possible connection:
1. The Bluetooth radio signal always tries to find the
most direct path. When setting up the PC/Laptop
with Bluetooth USB adapter make sure there are
as few obstacles as possible (e. g. steel doors and
concrete walls) which could interfere with the radio
signal from and to the FSA 500.
2. If the PC is standing on a Bosch trolley, the Blue-
tooth USB adapter should be connected by way of
a USB extension cable from outside the trolley. Use
is to be made for this purpose of the USB extension
cable (special accessory) 1 684 465 564 (1.8 m).
3. In the event of problems with the Bluetooth link, the
USB link can be activated and used instead of the
Bluetooth connection.
4. It is not possible to operate any other item of
Bluetooth hardware fitted or plugged into the PC/
Laptop, as this would interfere with data communi-
cation between the FSA 500 and the PC/Laptop.
