6 OPERATION OF THE TOOL'S RADIO DEVICES
Wireless connection with Bluetooth, WiFi and HSUPA technology
Wireless connectivity through Bluetooth, WiFi and HSUPA is a technology that
supplies a standard, reliable method for exchanging information between
different devices using radio waves. Many other products besides those built
by TEXA use this technology, such as mobile phones, portable devices,
Computers, printers, cameras, Pocket PCs etc.
The Bluetooth, WiFi and HSUPA interfaces search for compatible electronic
devices based on the radio signals they emit and establish a connection. TEXA
tools only select and prompt compatible TEXA devices. This does not exclude
the presence of other sources of communication or disturbance.
THE EFFICIENCY AND QUALITY OF BLUETOOTH, WiFi AND HSUPA
COMMUNICATION MAY BE AFFECTED BY THE PRESENCE OF RADIO
DISTURBANCE. THE COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL IS DESIGNED TO
MANAGE THESE TYPES OF ERRORS; HOWEVER, IN SUCH CASES
COMMUNICATION MAY BE DIFFICULT AND CONNECTION MAY REQUIRE
SEVERAL ATTEMPTS.
SHOULD THE WIRELESS CONNECTION ENCOUNTER SERIOUS
PROBLEMS AND COMPROMISE REGULAR COMMUNICATION, THE
SOURCE OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL ELECTROMAGNETIC DISTURBANCE
MUST BE IDENTIFIED AND ITS INTENSITY REDUCED.
Position the tool so that the radio devices it is equipped with can work properly.
In particular, do not cover it with any shielding or metallic materials in general.
