Bluetooth wireless technology uses radio signals to send and receive information quickly and securely from many different types 

of devices, including computers, phones, and printers. Using Bluetooth wireless technology, you can synchronize your iQue M5 

with your personal computer, exchange or print files, connect to a network, or browse the Internet. To communicate, devices with 

Bluetooth technology do not have to be in the same room, but they must be within 30 feet (10 meters) of each other.

BTExplorer is the software on your iQue M5 that helps you connect to other devices with Bluetooth technology. BTExplorer has 

two modes: Wizard mode (the default setting) and Explorer mode. Both modes allow you to create and maintain connections with 

other devices, but Wizard mode is designed to simplify this process.
Using either mode, you can view and connect to “services” on other devices with Bluetooth technology. (A service is a type of 

Bluetooth wireless connection, like a serial port connection or a network connection.) After you create a connection, you can save 

it as a favorite, much like you would save favorites in your Web browser. Then you can use your favorites to connect to devices 

quickly and easily.

 

NOTE: You can only connect to devices that offer services compatible with your iQue M5. If a device does not offer a 

service that your iQue M5 can use, the devices will not connect to each other.

Before you can use Bluetooth wireless technology, you must turn on the Bluetooth wireless transmitter and open BTExplorer. You 

can do this easily from the icon on the Today screen.

1.  Tap and hold on the Bluetooth icon   at the bottom right of the screen. A menu appears.
2.  Tap 

Enable Bluetooth. The Bluetooth icon changes from   to  , and the blue LED light at the top of your iQue M5 begins to blink.

Tap 

Enable Bluetooth on the menu that appears.

1.  Tap the   icon.
2.  Tap 

Show BTExplorer.

 

NOTE: When you open BTExplorer, you also automatically enable the Bluetooth wireless transmitter.
