Bluetooth
Before users can communicate wirelessly with their EXO sondes, they must establish a Bluetooth link. All
EXO sondes are equipped with Bluetooth wireless. This technology provides a secure, two-way, reliable
communication channel with which users can communicate with their sondes above water without cables.
Many new computers are equipped with Bluetooth wireless installed internally; those without Bluetooth
can use a Bluetooth dongle (not included). Follow the manufacturer's instructions for installing the dongle's
software and hardware. Administrative permissions and IT support may be required depending on the
adapter and your PC settings.

1 Install Bluetooth dongle (optional).
If your computer is not equipped with internal Bluetooth,
insert a Bluetooth dongle (not provided) into any of
the computer's USB ports. Wait for the computer to
automatically install the device and its drivers. Once the
installation is complete, the computer should indicate that
the device is installed and ready to use.
The preferred Bluetooth configuration is Windows 7 with
native Windows Bluetooth drivers and software.
2 Activate sonde's Bluetooth.
Users activate Bluetooth wireless by holding a magnet
at the magnetic activation area. In addition to magnetic
activation, users can also activate Bluetooth by:
• Applying power to the sonde
• Enabling Bluetooth via KOR through a USB or field
cable connection at the topside port.
