How to Pair the Palm Centro

The Palm Centro wireless phone supports Bluetooth technology, allowing you to connect wirelessly to other nearby devices. You can connect to a headset to use the phone hands-free or connect to another phone to exchange files. Before the phone can communicate with another device using Bluetooth, you'll need to establish a secure connection by pairing. After you pair the Palm Centro with another device, the settings you enter will be saved and stored in the "Trusted Devices" list, allowing you to connect quickly in the future.

• 1

  Press "Applications" and select "Bluetooth."

• 2

  Select "Setup Devices," then "Trusted Devices." Ensure the device you are attempting to pair with is turned on and discoverable through Bluetooth. Headsets should be in pairing mode; other devices should have Bluetooth "On" and set to "Visible."

• 3

  Select "Add Device." The Centro will attempt to locate the other device--make sure the device is nearby. Maximum range for Bluetooth communication is about 30 feet.

• 4

  Tap the drop-down window next to "Show" and choose "Nearby Devices." Select the name of the device you wish to connect to from the list displayed. Press "OK."

• 5

  Enter the pairing passcode when prompted. For phones, you may type in the password of your choosing--the phone you are pairing with must enter the same code to complete pairing. For headsets, the code is set by the headset manufacturer--it usually is 0000 or 1234. Select "OK" and choose "Done" to finish pairing.
