How do I setup my Zoom Bluetooth modem to use with my faxing software?

There are a few basic steps associated with setting up your Bluetooth wireless modem and configuring it to Fax:

• Connect the hardware.
• Install any necessary software (if nor already installed).
• Pair the Bluetooth modem with your computer and enter the modem's PIN.
• Enable Faxing.

Connect the Modem Hardware:

1. On the back of the modem, make sure the selectable switch is all the way to the left, the side marked BT (for Bluetooth).
2. Plug one end of the supplied phone cord into the modem's Line port, and plug the other end into the telephone wall jack.
3. Plug one end of the included power adapter into the modem and the other end into a wall outlet or power strip.

Set Up Your Bluetooth Connection:  To set up your wireless modem's faxing capability you must have a Bluetooth Adapter.  If you need to install a Bluetooth adapter, the basic instructions are similar, regardless of the brand of adapter.  If your adapter is not yet installed you should install it now, before setting up your modem's faxing capability.  As part of your Bluetooth adapter installation process an icon named My Bluetooth Places is installed on your computer desktop.

1. Double-click the My Bluetooth Places icon on your desktop. (Note: If this icon is not visible, go to Start > Programs > Bluetooth.)
2. A folder with the same name displays.  Double-click the Find Bluetooth Devices icon (XP users select View Devices in Range).  The Bluetooth software begins searching for any surrounding remote devices.
3. When the software discovers your modem it places an icon named Bluetooth Modem in your Bluetooth folder.  Double-click this icon.
4. A Bluetooth PIN Code Required box appears in your system tray, stating the need for a PIN (personal identification number or passkey).  Windows needs this PIN to link your Bluetooth device and computer.  Click this dialog box.
5. The Bluetooth PIN Code Request dialog box displays.  Type the modem's PIN and click OK.  (The PIN is located on the label on the bottom of your modem.)
6. Once the modem is paired with your computer, the My Bluetooth folder displays several service option icons including: Dial-up Networking on BluetoothModem, Fax on BluetoothModem, Serial Port on BluetoothModem.

To set up your wireless modem's faxing capability, follow these steps:

1. From the My Bluetooth Places folder, open the  Entire Bluetooth Neighborhood folder and double-click Bluetooth Modem to display available services.
2. Right-click Fax on BluetoothModem and then select Connect Fax.  This will display a FAX dialog box stating that Faxing is now setup.  Click OK.
3. You can now use your computer's built-in faxing software or any third-party faxing software to send a fax. 

Note: Once you've sent a fax, your faxmodem connection will automatically disconnect.  However, once you have enabled your modem's faxing capability, whenever you create a fax the modem will automatically dial-up and send it.
