It's recommended that the UIs try to generate PINs for the users, rather than relying on them entering random numbers. > How does the user know what PIN has been generated?

Yep, in the UI, because that's the PIN you will have to enter on the device. > Are they expected to confirm the PIN with a remote display?

The device is a Hi-Fi with Bluetooth functionality: http://www.sony.co.uk/support/en/product/CMT-DH5BT You have a UI to enter the PIN but it will only allow you to enter 4 digits. So any number longer than 4 digits will fail to pair. > Or do these devices simply just accept any PIN without question? In > which case, why does it matter whether you send a random PIN or 0000?
