Bluetooth Pairing
Due to the large number of Bluetooth enabled
devices there are really no universal pairing
procedures. Pairing your smartphone with your
car may be very different from pairing your
XG200 with a desktop PC or portable printer. And
pairing with a device with a display will be
different than pairing something that does not
have a display, like headphones.
The example to the right shows pairing the
XG200 with a desktop Apple MacBook. Go to
Settings
>
Bluetooth
, turn Bluetooth on, and
wait until the Mac shows up as a device that can
be paired, then
Tap to Pair
.
In this combination, the XG200 then receives a
pairing request from the Mac, which you accept.
And in this instance, a unique
6-digit Passkey
number
is generated so that you know you’re
pairing with the device you intended to pair.
If the number is the same on both devices,
accept the pairing request on both the XG200
and the iMac, and the two devices will be paired.
Paired devices will remain on the XG200’s list.
There is no need to pair the same devices again.
They will stay paired until you tap and hold a
paired connection on the XG200 and select
delete
on the resulting popup.
Available Bluetooth Services
As stated above, Bluetooth “services” between
two connected devices vary. In this case, the
pairing between the XG200 and the MacBook
allows the MacBook to send files to the XG200,
browse files, and the Mac can use the XG200 to
connect to a network.
While the Mac side is capable of browsing files on
the connected XG200, Bluetooth on the XG200
does not provide that service in the other
direction. It is only used for contact sharing.
