The Bluetooth Browser appears and searches for other Bluetooth devices. As the
search progresses, the found devices are listed in the window. To select a device from
the list, tap it. You do not have to wait for the search to finish; as soon as the desired

Series Port
The use of a Bluetooth wireless serial port connection is identical to the use of a
physical cable serial port connection between two devices.
As with a physical connection, the application that will use the connection must be
configured to use the correct serial port.
To determine the communications port assigned to the Bluetooth serial port:
• In the lower-right corner of the Today Screen, tap the Bluetooth icon, and
then select Bluetooth Settings.
• Use the scroll arrows at the bottom-right of the screen to expose the Serial
Port tab, and then select the Serial Port tab.
The Outbound COM Port is listed in the lower portion of the screen.
Configure the application that will use the Bluetooth Serial Port to send data
to this port.
• From Bluetooth Manager's My Shortcuts screen open the Bluetooth serial
port connection to the remote device.
• Send/Receive data from the application.
