Pairing
- When connecting your computer to your mobile phone for the first time,
you will need to pair both devices. In "Do you need a passkey to add your
device?", select "Choose a passkey for me" to let the wizard
generate a random
passkey for you or "Let me choose my own passkey" to input your own passkey. If your connection takes place in a public space, security is a
concern. Therefore, it's recommended to input a long and difficult to
guess passkey (8 to 16 digits).
- If you select "Choose a passkey for me" in the previous step, the wizard
will present an 8-digit passkey and ask you to enter the same passkey on
your mobile phone.
- On the mobile phone, you will be prompted to input the same passkey
(a.k.a. passcode or PIN) as on the computer. You have only a few seconds
and when the time expires you have to run again the Add Bluetooth Device
Wizard from the beginning. After the same passkey has been entered, the
mobile phone is paired with the computer.
