Windows Mobile smartphones to use the eKEY fob to interact with iBoxes.

Non-Infrared Smartphones
For the updated list of supported devices, click here.
The supported device list now contains additional Windows Mobile devices that are qualified but not certified.
Qualified devices are devices that have not gone through our regular testing but the eKEY software should work on
them without any difficulty. Qualified devices could encounter slight interface anomalies, but all core features are
available and functional.
eKEY icons
The main Supra eKEY icon has been updated, and the eKEY and eDATA icons have been updated. The eSYNC option
is accessed by opening the Supra eKEY application and selecting Options and eSYNC.
Pairing the eKEY Fob
The eKEY software for Windows Mobile does not need to go through a separate step to pair the eKEY fob to the
device. It pairs the eKEY fob automatically the first time it is used.
If Bluetooth is disabled on the Windows Mobile device, the device automatically turns on Bluetooth, uses Bluetooth to
perform the function, and turns the Bluetooth back off.
Using the eKEY Fob
Non-Infrared Windows Mobile devices require the use of an eKEY fob to translate the Bluetooth signal from your
Windows device to an infrared signal for the iBox.
To use the eKEY fob, begin the function on your Windows device (open the key container, open shackle, etc.). When
prompted, press the power button on the eKEY fob until the blue light comes on. When the green light flashes, aim
the eKEY fob at the iBox.
