Pair devices

Glossary: Pairing means authentication. The users of

the two devices with Bluetooth wireless technology
should agree on a common passcode, and use the same
passcode for both devices in order to pair them. Devices

that do not have a user interface have a factory-set
passcode.

In the

Bluetooth

main view, press

devices view (

same code. The passcode is used only once.
