Transferring Data via Bluetooth
With the optional Bluetooth device, you can transfer data between your
unit and a computer using the Bluetooth technology.
Note: The computer that you use must run Windows XP SP3 or later; otherwise,
there could be problems during data transfer. The computer must also be
equipped with a Bluetooth device and be configured properly.
Note: To save power when your unit is running on batteries, you may wish to
disconnect the Bluetooth device when you do not use it.
Note: If you prefer to use devices such as BlackBerry smartphones instead of a
computer for data transfer, you must ensure that they are
Bluetooth-compatible and configured properly.
Some devices only allow data transfer between devices of the same make.
In this case, you will need to use another type of device or a standard
computer to transfer data from your FTB-500 unit.
Your unit must be located within a 9-meter area from your computer
(limitation of the Bluetooth technology).
If you need to transfer large files (more than 1 Gb), use a USB key, or
connect to a Wi-Fi or an Ethernet network.
