The following are the instructions on how to easily prepare a Bluetooth® Dongle connection to the {{{model_2|FMB}}} device. First, we need to configure {{{model_2|FMB}}} device Bluetooth® settings. These are the required steps:
* Go to <span style=color:#F6A83E>Bluetooth®</span> section similarly to as shown in the figure to the right (position 1).
* Turn on BT Radio by pressing <span style=color:#F6A83E>Enable (visible)</span> (position 2). "Local name" (position 3) will automatically be "{{{model|FMB1YX}}}_last 7 imei digits", you can leave it or type your own name.
* Set ''Security Mode'' (position 4) to <span style=color:#F6A83E>PIN only</span> or <span style=color:#F6A83E>None</span> (you could select <span style=color:#F6A83E>PIN + MAC list</span> or <span style=color:#F6A83E>MAC list only</span> security mode but in this case you need to type external device MAC address in ''Authorized Devices MAC List'' (position 7).
* Set connection mode to <span style=color:#F6A83E>OBDII</span> (position 5).
* Set ''External Name'' as your Bluetooth® OBD II device name for proper device identification and connection to it. In this example the OBDII device name is "DONGLE", at least 2 characters are needed to recognize it and connect to it. For better and faster adapter identification in the network, you could enter a full device name. You could check your OBDII adapter Bluetooth® name by scanning nearby Bluetooth® devices using a mobile phone or a computer with a Bluetooth® adapter.
* Go to <span style=color:#F6A83E>OBD II</span> in main menu and select priority and others parameters visible in the following figure.

* After all these steps press <span style=color:#F6A83E>Save to device</span> to save configuration (position 8 in the top right hand figure).
* Now you can disconnect {{{model_2|FMB}}} device from the configurator.

===Connecting to Bluetooth® OBD II dongle===
----
After this configuration OBDII dongle can be connected to {{{model_2|FMB}}} device. Turn on the ignition, then turn on its Bluetooth® connection. For pairing follow dongle instructions. OBDII device notification about paired Bluetooth® connection depends on the specific model. If you later restart {{{model_2|FMB}}} device it will automatically reconnect to this dongle.

===Supported Bluetooth® OBD II dongles===
----
{{{model_2|FMB}}} module works with Bluetooth® OBD II dongles which are based on ELM327 or STN1110 chips.<br/>Comparison of these chips is presented in the image below:
