Using the Bluetooth Stack
When you plug in your Bluetooth adaptor for the first time Windows will detect it and install the
Bluetooth stack. At this point it will ask you to give your PC a name. This is the name that other
devices will see if you make your PC visible to them. Use a name that is memorable.
Once the USB adaptor is installed you will see a Bluetooth icon on the task bar at the bottom right of
the screen. If you click on it (both right and left click work the same way), you will get a list of
options.
If you do not have a Bluetooth icon, open up Control Panel -> Hardware & Sound -> Setup a Bluetooth
enabled device. Go to the Options Tab and check the final box on the page – Show the Bluetooth icon
in the notification area

Pairing your Bluetooth devices
Pairing is a feature of Bluetooth that allows devices to make secure connections.
Although you do not always need to pair devices to exchange data, if you are likely to send
information between them on a regular basis it is a good idea to do so.
To pair a device using the Bluetooth stack you need to click on the Bluetooth Icon in the task bar and
then select Add a Bluetooth Device.
Click Add. Read the instructions, and once you’ve done these, check the box My device is set up and
ready to be found and press Next.
8
Your PC will then start looking for Bluetooth devices that are discoverable and within range. This
may take up to a minute. You will then be given a list of the devices that have been found. If your
phone or PDA does not appear on the list then it is probably because it has been set up as hidden or
non-discoverable. Dig out the manual (that thing you didn’t get around to reading) and find out how
to make it visible. Then try again by pressing Search Again.
Once your device has appeared on the list, highlight it and press Next.
To ensure a secure connection between the devices, you will need to enter a passkey on both the
other Bluetooth device and your PC. This is used to generate a secure code that will be used to
authenticate the device and your PC every time they connect to each other. For phones and PDAs
you can make this passkey up yourself. You don’t need to remember it - it is only ever needed the
first time you pair the devices.
To make things easier (and more secure) Windows can generate a random number for you to use as
the passcode. Choose that option (Choose a passkey for me) and press Next.
9
Windows will display the number for you to enter in your Bluetooth device:
Enter this into your phone or PDA and then press OK. If the pairing is successful you 10 will see
the final screen on your PC, confirming that the devices have been paired.
At this stage Windows assigns two COM ports to your Bluetooth device. - one for Incoming and one
for outgoing connections. You will need to use these if you run communications programs that
connect your PC to your Bluetooth devices. Typical applications include PC Suite for Nokia and Sony
Ericsson handsets and Easy Studio for Samsung handsets.

then select Add a Device.

Sending Data from your phone.
The Bluetooth stack protects your PC by making it invisible to other devices. However it still allows you
to send information and files from a Phone or PDA, but you need to initiate the transfer from your PC.
To do this, open Devices and Printers > Bluetooth Devices. Click your phone devices.
Bluetooth stack now makes your PC discoverable for a limited time, and also enables the file receive
software. Once this is complete it shows the ready to receive screen. Click File Transfer.
14
Now select the picture or file you want to send from your phone, and select the option to send it via
Bluetooth. You should see a list of devices on your phone.
Note: It only allows access for a limited time. If your phone cannot find your PC it may be because
you’ve taken too long. Check that the PC is still displaying the Waiting for a connection screen.
15
Note: Your virus checker may not scan files received via Bluetooth. It is a good idea to reserve a
directory for incoming files and perform a virus check on this directory before opening them.
Note: This is the only way of receiving files using the Windows XP Bluetooth stack. If you make the
PC permanently discoverable you will still need to initiate File Receive from the Bluetooth icon.
16
Sending files from your PC
Its very easy to send files to another Bluetooth device with the Bluetooth stack. Just right click on the
file you want to send, and then select Send a File to Bluetooth Device.
You can select a file from your desktop or a file list in Windows Explorer.
Note: You cannot currently send from the File, Send menus in Word, Exchange or other Office
programs.
Windows will display a list of the devices that have been set up already (paired).
Select the device you want to send the file to, or Browse to find other devices.
(Other devices must be discoverable or set to Show to all). Then press Next.
17
Click Browse to choose the file and click Next while you’re ready to send out.
Show up file sending status window.
Once the transfer is complete, Windows will finish the Transfer Wizard and display details of the
transfer.
Making your PC discoverable
The Bluetooth stack defaults to keeping your PC invisible. This is the safest way of operating
Bluetooth on a PC. However, some applications may require the PC to be in discoverable mode. To
change this, click on the Bluetooth Icon in the task bar and then select Open Bluetooth settings, then
choose the Options tab. Select the Turn discovery on box and click OK.
