3.1 Power

The POWER option allows you to Enable or Disable the Bluetooth functionality of the KDC. To use Bluetooth,
this option must be set to Enable. However, like all devices enabled for Bluetooth, the KDC, when set to
Enable, will search constantly to connect with a Bluetooth host. Constant searching uses battery power.
Unless you are using Bluetooth with your KDC, this option should be set to Disabled.
IMPORTANT: To prevent unnecessary power problems, it is strongly recommended that the POWER option
be set to Disabled if the KDC is idle for an extended period of time.

3.2 Pairing

Before you are able to use Bluetooth, the KDC must be paired with the host device. This paring
process only needs to be completed once with each host device. After pairing, the host device will
always recognize the KDC as a Bluetooth device unless the Bluetooth configuration is
modified. If it is modified, you may need to pair the devices again.
IMPORTANT: The host device must be configured for Bluetooth before it can be paired to the KDC.
To pair the KDC with the host, follow these instructions.
1. Select Pairing from the Bluetooth menu. The message "Pairing started..." will displayed.
2. When prompted by the host device, enter the Security PIN "0000".
3. The "Pairing success" message will display when the Bluetooth connection is
successfully established. The connection must be established before the pairing
timeout which is 60 seconds.
If "Pairing failed..." message displays, the Bluetooth connection with the host
device failed. If the message "Connected" displays, a Bluetooth connection was
established.
It is possible for the message "Pairing failed..." to display on the KDC while the host
device displays "Connected" message. If this occurs, a Bluetooth connection is
established.
