The BlueSoleil software allows you to wirelessly copy files to other Bluetooth devices.
It also enables you to simply connect devices such as keyboards, printers, mice and
headsets to your computer. In this chapter we will explain how to accomplish this.
4.1 Connecting a Bluetooth device (headset, mouse,
printer)
If you wish to use a Bluetooth device on your computer it will first have to be
connected. This also called ‘pairing’. For security reasons your computer will only
communicate with Bluetooth devices after they have been connected and both the
computer and the device know each others PIN code. Follow the instructions below to
connect your device:
1. Right click the ‘Bluetooth’ icon in the taskbar and choose the option ‘Explore my
Bluetooth places’.
2. Click ‘Search for devices in range’. A list of detected devices will be displayed.
3. Right click the Bluetooth device you wish to use.
4. Click ‘Pair device’.
5. Depending on the device you selected you can now enter a pin code (mobile
phones) or a specific code (headsets etc.).
6. After entering the PIN code on both devices, they will be paired.
The device is now ready for use on your computer. If you wish to use multiple devices
through Bluetooth, repeat the instructions above (it is possible to use several devices
at once).

6 | ENGLISH
When connecting small devices such as headsets or mice, you are usually asked to
enter a specific PIN code. If you do not know what this code is, consult the manual of
your Bluetooth device. Mobile phones allow you to make up and enter a PIN code
yourself. During the first attempt at connecting your phone will again ask you to enter
this code.
Hint! Not all Bluetooth devices can be found automatically. You may sometimes have
to change the settings of a device to make sure it can be detected by other Bluetooth
devices. Consult the manual of the device for the exact instructions, then repeat the
instructions above.
4.2 Copy data to a Bluetooth device
Follow the instructions below to copy data to a Bluetooth device, for instance an image
or music file that you wish to send to your mobile phone. To be able to follow these
