For the BT controller, I'm reading that if I have 2 devices that I want to use with it, I would have to keep re-pairing them? I have an iPad Pro and a Macbook that I carry to class together. If I pair the MacBook, then I have to "get it out of range" before I pair the iPad? Then once I have both paired, can I switch between the two devices just by using the "Bluetooth" menu on the two devices and making it connect from there? Or would I HAVE to force re-pair using "p" command?
I ask because if force re-pairing is needed, then I will have to keep changing the keyboard settings to Colemak every time manually. I guess I'm also just not unstandanding what force re-pairing does exactly too.
Yes, mean of "out of range" includes below:
1) keep out computer away physically as its radio doesn't reach(next room, 10m or more?)
2) turn off bluetooth radio on computer
3) remove keyboard's pair info from computer
4) disconnect keyboard from computer?
5) Using "p" command to remove all pairing infos
I think 1. or 2.disabling bluetooth radio are desirable if possible because this retain pairing infomation intact so you don't have to pair it again.
I don't know how Mac and iPad "Bluetooth menu" works but I guess:
3. works but you will have to do pairing process for the computer again.
4.disconecting keyboard will not work because the controller's auto-connect feature tries to reconnect computer immediately after the disconnection.
If any of methods above doesn't work you have to use 5. method which removes all pairing infos. This will be undesiarble in most cases and you have to pair with all hosts again from the bigining.
