Communication Using Bluetooth®

Technology

5.1 Overview

The I™ optionally supports the following proﬁles for Blue-

tooth® technology:

• Headset equipped with Bluetooth® wireless technology, for alarm out-

put and voice message input

• Personal Area Network (PAN) proﬁle for Bluetooth® wireless tech-

nology, for data transfer to the PC software application i.e. I-

™ Sync

• File Transfer Service (OBEX FTP) via Bluetooth® wireless technology,

for data transfer to OBEX FTP enabled devices, such as a PC, Pocket-

PCs or SmartPhones

An I™ equipped with Bluetooth® wireless technology uses a

Bluetooth® Class 2 module. This module is theoretically capable of com-

munication up to 10 meters (30 ft) away from another unit equipped with

Bluetooth® technology. Because of the I™ metal case and other

environmental inﬂuences, the practical transmission range is rated up to 5

meters (15 ft). Extending the distance beyond the rated value can cause com-

munication errors and loss of established communications.

All features can be enabled or disabled using the provided PC software. If a

feature does not work on the I™, make sure it is enabled. Refer

to chapter 4.12.4, p. 81.
