# Configuration of the Wireless Settings

The Wireless settings in the controller activates the use of a WLAN and Bluetooth.

1. In the Settings menu, select the Wireless tab.

2. Depending on the tool (WLAN-equipped tools are marked IRC-W, while Bluetooth-equipped tools are marked IRC-B), set Enabled to On.

   Note that "Short range/distance" means better transmission speed but can be more sensitive to distance from controller and "Long range/distance" means less transmission speed but increased tolerance to distance and disturbance.

3. IxB Connect mode: When switching from ON to OFF all previously paired tools will be un-paired and the tools need to be paired again before use.

   OFF: Users can have both old Bluetooth tools like STB and IxB Connect tools connected at the same time via Bluetooth. On: Users can only have IxB Connect tool connected via Bluetooth.
