To make a connection possible for such programs, you must first set up a virtual COM port on the Field PC. Once created, this virtual port can be used like any other COM port. For example, you can use a virtual COM port for programs that connect to a GPS receiver. When setting up a virtual COM port, you must specify if the COM port is an outgoing COM port or an incoming COM port. An outgoing COM port means that the Field PC initiates communication with the other device. For example, when you are using a Bluetooth GPS receiver, the Field PC initiates the request for data; thus, the virtual COM port connecting with the receiver would be an outgoing COM port. An incoming COM port means that the other device is initiating the communication with the Field PC. For example, a desktop computer might initiate a Bluetooth ActiveSync connection with the device via the virtual COM port. For more details about setting up outgoing and incoming COM Ports, read the following sections. Ch 6 Bluetooth Wireless Communications 53 Set up an Outgoing Bluetooth COM Port Use this option if you want to assign the virtual COM port as an Outgoing COM port (i.e., you want to use the Field PC to initiate communications with another device). Follow the steps below to set up an outgoing Bluetooth COM port. 1. Make sure you have paired with the serial port device you want to communicate with. To do this, follow the steps in the section called Create a Bluetooth partnership in this chapter. 2. Select the COM Ports tab. 3. Tap New Outgoing Port, the second option shown. 4. The Add a Device screen appears. Tap on the name of the device you want to set up as an outgoing port. 54 Field PC Owner’s Manual 5. Select a numbered COM port from the list of ports that appear. If the port cannot be created, it is in use. Select a different numbered port. 6. Important: Deselect the Secure Connection option below the list of COM ports, as shown above. Deselecting this option ensures that the device disconnects its Bluetooth connection only when you tell it to, and prevents the device setup from being deleted after one connection. 7. Tap Finish. Once the virtual COM port is assigned using the outgoing Bluetooth COM port, specify the COM port assignment within your application as explained in the user documentation for the application. An example follows. Suppose you are using a Bluetooth-enabled GPS receiver with the device and a navigation program on the Field PC. In this example, assume you have set up a virtual COM port between the Field PC and the GPS receiver and that you assigned the outgoing COM port as COM 6. To assign the COM port in your navigation program, you would then follow these steps: 1. Locate the place in the navigation program where the COM port is chosen. 2. Select COM Port 6 as the COM port for the Bluetooth GPS receiver. Ch 6 Bluetooth Wireless Communications 55 Set up an Incoming Bluetooth COM Port Use this option if you want to assign the virtual COM port as an Incoming COM port (i.e., you want another device to initiate communications with the Field PC). If you are connected with a Bluetooth device that supports serial communications, follow these steps to set up the incoming Bluetooth COM port: 1. Press the COM Ports tab. 2. Tap on New Incoming Port. 3. Select a numbered COM port from the list. Note: If the port cannot be created, it is in use. Select a different numbered port. 4. Important: Deselect (clear) the Secure Connection checkbox. Deselecting this option ensures that the device disconnects its Bluetooth connection only when you tell it to, and prevents the device setup from being deleted after one connection.
