Using the Motion C5

If the device is not discovered…
If the Bluetooth device is not detected after multiple attempts, try the following:

•

Ensure that Bluetooth is enabled (page 44).

•

Ensure that the device you are adding is discoverable. See the manufacturer’s 

documentation for more information.

•

Ensure that the Bluetooth device has good batteries.

•

For keyboards, mice, and printers, ensure that you select My device is set up and ready 

to be found in the Add Bluetooth Device Wizard.

•

For two computers transferring files, both computers must turn on the device transfer 

wizard, although only the receiving computer needs to be discoverable. Tap the 

Bluetooth icon and then Send a file or Receive a file. When you do this, discovery is 

automatically turned on for the receiving computer.

•

Check which Bluetooth devices are connected. In the notification area, tap the 

Bluetooth icon and select Open Bluetooth Settings. In the Devices window, you will 

see the Bluetooth devices that are currently connected.

If the C5 still cannot detect the Bluetooth device, contact the device manufacturer for more 
information.

Bluetooth wireless tips
Motion Computing and its Bluetooth partners have worked to ensure a positive experience 
with this technology, and to ensure Bluetooth interoperability. In doing so, we have found 
the following issues:

•

If you are running Bluetooth and Wi-Fi at the same time, interference can affect the 

Bluetooth performance. This is most noticeable when you try to transfer large amounts 

of data, such as transferring files or printing large documents.

•

Some Bluetooth devices will disconnect when they go into power-saving mode. Most 

devices will automatically reconnect when they become active again.

•

Occasionally, some Bluetooth device compatibility issues can occur. If you have 

problems with interoperability of Bluetooth devices, contact the manufacturer of the 

device and check its compatibility with the Bluetooth software installed on the C5.

•

The Motion C5 comes with Bluetooth software from Toshiba, although you can use 

other Bluetooth software. For more information, go to the Motion Computing 

Knowledge Base at 

 and search for “Bluetooth”.
