This is the Internet version of the user's guide. © Print only for private use. Send and receive You can send items via the infrared port, beam, in any application if there is a Send as command. To send, select Infrared. If you receive a beamed item, a dialogue box appears with two options. View or Done. View opens the associated application which shows the item; Done saves it in the Beamed folder in Messages. Connection via Bluetooth wireless technology You can connect your P900 to other products equipped with Bluetooth wireless technology, for example PCs or other mobile phones, and exchange data. Since Bluetooth wireless technology is radio-based, there does not have to be a free line of sight between transmitting and receiving devices. This means that your P900 can stay in your pocket while communicating. However, items between transmitting and receiving devices might weaken the signal. Connection to another device can be made within a range of up to 10 metres. Obstructions between the transmitting devices will have an effect on the performance. For all tasks, except beaming, it is necessary that you first set up a permanent and trusted relationship between your P900 and the other device. This process is called pairing (other documentation may refer to it as bonding). The paired devices are remembered by your P900 even after you have turned it off so you do not need to repeat the process for every connection with those devices. The reason for pairing is to simplify future connections and to make them secure - only paired devices can connect to your P900. Activating Bluetooth wireless technology Activate Bluetooth wireless technology on your P900 in Control panel > Connections > Bluetooth > Settings. Set Operation mode to On, and set if your P900 should be Visible by other devices or not. See 'Bluetooth' on page 146 for more information on Bluetooth wireless technology settings. The Bluetooth wireless technology operation mode can also be changed with the Flip closed, through the Connections application. When the Bluetooth wireless technology is activated, appears on the screen and the left indicator on top of your P900 flashes blue. 130 Connecting to other devices

Connection via Bluetooth

wireless technology

You can connect your P900 to other products equipped with

Bluetooth wireless technology, for example PCs or other mobile

phones, and exchange data. Since Bluetooth wireless technology

is radio-based, there does not have to be a free line of sight

between transmitting and receiving devices. This means that

your P900 can stay in your pocket while communicating.

However, items between transmitting and receiving devices

might weaken the signal.

Connection to another device can be made within a range of up

to 10 metres. Obstructions between the transmitting devices will

have an effect on the performance. For all tasks, except

beaming, it is necessary that you first set up a permanent and

trusted relationship between your P900 and the other device.

This process is called pairing (other documentation may refer to

it as bonding). The paired devices are remembered by your P900

even after you have turned it off so you do not need to repeat the

process for every connection with those devices. The reason for

pairing is to simplify future connections and to make them

secure – only paired devices can connect to your P900.

Activating Bluetooth wireless technology

Activate Bluetooth wireless technology on your P900 in

Control

Visible by other devices

or not. See

The Bluetooth wireless technology operation mode can also be
