Establishing a Bluetooth connection

The Graphire Bluetooth pen tablet connects to your computer via a wireless Bluetooth connection.
Bluetooth is a radio-frequency technology, so it is not necessary for Graphire Bluetooth to be "in sight" of the
Bluetooth antenna on your computer. The radio frequency can pass through non-metallic objects like walls,
bookshelves, etc.
Important:
• Graphire Bluetooth is a Class 2 Bluetooth device, and can operate for up to 10 meters (33 feet) from
the Bluetooth antenna of your computer.
• Interference from other networks operating in the 2.4 GHz band, other Bluetooth devices connected
to your computer (especially audio devices), or metallic objects located in or along the line of sight
can negatively impact the tablet performance and operating distance.
• If you experience connection problems, see
suggestions.
Before connecting the tablet, make sure that your computer has a working Bluetooth configuration that
meets Bluetooth Specification v1.1 or higher with Human Interface Device (HID) profile. If your
computer does not have built-in Bluetooth support, you need to obtain and install a commercially available
USB-to-Bluetooth adapter.
The process of connecting Graphire Bluetooth to your computer is called "pairing". Please read the
instructions that came with your Bluetooth hardware and software for details on how to pair a device to your
specific Bluetooth configuration. The following is an overview of the typical steps involved in the process.
To establish a link between your wireless tablet and computer:
1. Turn on your computer and wait until the system has fully loaded. Make sure that your computer's
Bluetooth wireless connection is working. You can test this using a Bluetooth mouse or keyboard.
2. Press the C
