5 - 8 Workabout Pro4 (Windows Embedded Hand-Held 6.5) User Manual
Bluetooth Peripherals
The Workabout Pro4 is equipped with a Bluetooth radio, making it is possible to communicate with a variety of
Bluetooth peripherals, including GSM/GPRS handsets, scanners, printers, and so on.
The range of the Bluetooth radio is limited to approximately 5 meters.
Motorola provides built-in support for the Bluetooth peripherals listed below.
•
GSM/GPRS universal handset
•
Bluetooth printer
•
Bluetooth headset
Keep in mind that Bluetooth and IEEE 802.11b/g radios both operate in the 2.4GHz band. Although the Worka-
bout Pro4 includes features to minimize interference, performance of the system will not be optimal if you use
both radios simultaneously. Typically, when both radios operate in the hand-held at the same time, they cannot
transmit simultaneously – this has a negative impact on overall system throughput. To minimize the impact on
the backbone 802.11g network, Motorola recommends using Bluetooth peripherals that have low transaction
rates (such as printers and scanners).

cation. In addition, review the manual shipped with your Bluetooth device to determine the method used to pair
with the Workabout Pro4 host.
