Ask The Editors: What's my Bluetooth PIN/device access code?By Sindre Lia, 19 April 2008
Bluetooth connectivity is great when you get it up and running, but let's find out what's required.

Reader's question: What's the PIN code for my Bluetooth connection? Edward L.

Editor's answer:

There's no doubt about the convenience of Bluetooth connectivity, as long as you get it up and running. Pairing two Bluetooth devices has become a smoother process over the years, but obstacles still appear. Along with activating a device's Bluetooth pairing mode, a process which is usually described in the manual or quick-step guide, one of the most common issues today is to figure out the Bluetooth PIN code.

This code is simply a one time code when pairing new devices, which has to match on both devices in order to complete the process. The PIN code should always be four zeros, 0000, when pairing a Bluetooth device that doesn't have a keypad, such as a Bluetooth headset. If that doesn't work, some products may also be using the last four digits of its serial number as a device access code.

When pairing two cell phones or laptops for instance, the same straightforward numeric code should be used to ensure a smooth pairing process.
