Encrypting the content of your transmissions
Since Bluetooth communication is conducted wirelessly, there is always the possibility
that a third party may be able to intercept your transmissions.
You can use encryption to render the content indecipherable to anyone who manages to
intercept it.
Important
• Encrypting your transmissions will still not guarantee complete security.
Accordingly, please be aware that transmitting data is conducted with an element
of risk for the user.
Procedure
1. Right-clickontheBluetoothiconinthetasktray,andclickon[Device
Properties & Security].
The [Device Properties] window will appear.
2. Select [Link Level Enforced Security] in [Security Mode] under the
[Security] tab, put a check next to [Encryption], and then click on the [OK]
button
Note
• Once you have configured the security mode, a window will appear when you
first make a connection to another device, prompting you to enter a Bluetooth
passkey (PIN code).
Please click on the [OK] button after you have entered the passkey.
• The window in which you enter the passkey will not appear once you have
connected more than two times to the device.

5. Clickon"LondonA",andthenclickonthe[SetDefault]button
"London A" has been changed to the default connection.
Note
• Alternatively, if you wish to connect to the Internet from a LAN in a company or
other environment where a LAN can be accessed, select "Never dial a connection"
if you have a dial-up configuration, but do not want dial-up to occur
automatically.
• When connecting to the Internet via a LAN, you must enter the appropriate LAN
settings under [LAN Settings...].
Manually creating a virtual Bluetooth COM port
In order for a PC to connect to and communicate with a Bluetooth device, the Bluetooth
Utility will create a gateway for data to be exchanged between the respective devices.
This gateway is known as a "port" (or "virtual COM port").
Since one virtual COM port will be allocated to each device, trouble-free communication
will still be possible even if several devices are being used.
When you use the Bluetooth Utility, a virtual COM port will be automatically created on
set-up; however, virtual COM ports can be created manually if so needed.
Note
• Bluetooth Manager must be active in order for you to be able to use Bluetooth
Local COM.
Clients and servers
When Bluetooth communications are performed, there will always be a "client/server"
relationship between the various devices. A "client" is a device that sends certain requests
to another device, while a "server" is a device that provides a service on receipt of such
requests from another device.
For example, when a PC issues a print command to a wireless printer, the PC functions as
the client, while the printer functions as the server.
When a PDA or other device attempts to receive files located on a PC by means of file
transfer protocol, the PC functions as the server, while the PDA functions as the client.
Virtual Bluetooth COM ports can be created both for clients and servers.
• Bluetooth virtual COM port for a client
Virtual COM port used when your device is the client, and requests are sent to
another device.
• Bluetooth virtual COM port for a server
Virtual COM port used when your device is the server, and requests are received
from another device.
Creating a virtual COM port
Bluetooth virtual COM ports are created according to the procedure below.
Procedure
1. Click on the [Printers and Other Hardware] icon in the Control Panel
The [Printers and Other Hardware] window appears.
2. Double-click on the [Bluetooth Local COM] icon
The main Bluetooth Local COM window will appear.
Note
oEven when the Control Panel appears in Classic view, please simply click
on the [Bluetooth Local COM] icon.
oNo such distinction between viewing formats exists in Windows 2000.
3. Click on the [Add...] button
The [Bluetooth Local COM Wizard] window, from where you can create a virtual COM port, will
appear.
Start from this window when creating Bluetooth virtual COM ports for either servers or clients.

This is a password consisting of up to 16 alphanumeric characters that enables a
connection to be established to a wireless device. You need to know the passkey in order
to connect to a device that requires authentication.
Even when the authentication setting has been disabled in the User Mode Properties of
the Bluetooth Utility, the passkey entry dialog box will appear automatically if
authentication is required, enabling you to authenticate a device. A link key will be
created once you have authenticated a device, eliminating the need for a passkey to
connect to that device in the future.
Pairing
A security function. In order for Bluetooth devices to authenticate each other, a passkey
(PIN code) is entered in each terminal when they are connected for the first time, and a
secret 128-bit link key is generated. This action is known as "pairing."
SPP
Abbreviation of Serial Port Profile.
A Bluetooth profile that enables communication with a device through a virtual serial
port configured for a Bluetooth connection. This can be used for printers and printer
adapters with PDAs, using a method different from HCRP or ActiveSync.
TCP/IP
Abbreviation of Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol.
Standard communications protocol (convention for enabling data communication) used
by the Internet. Using the same protocol enables computers to exchange data with each
other.
vCARD
Common standard for electronic business cards.
Names, (e)mail addresses, telephone numbers and other information are exchanged in the
