Locating and Selecting a Device
Several tasks require you to locate a device and connect to it. 
When you are required to locate a device, the Bluetooth browser 
assists by searching for your desired function that supports other 
Bluetooth devices.
Pairing Devices
You can pair devices so they must exchange a computer generated 
security key prior to each connection. The security key is also 
called a “passkey.” It is generated from a unique Bluetooth device 
address, a random number, and a user-defined password.
After two devices are paired, they have a trusted relationship with 
each other that can be verified using a link key. No additional 
input is needed from the user. Therefore, connections and 
activities can be performed between the paired devices without 
constant authorization from the user.
