BT-500 User Manual Introduction Bluetooth technology provides short-range wireless communications enabled devices. Bluetooth for Windows(BTW) is the WIDCOMM, Inc.(WIDCOMM), solution for the seamless integration of Bluetooth technology into personal computers. Most Bluetooth-enabled devices have the capability to act as: z A Bluetooth server—these devices provide one or more services, such as access to the Internet, to other Bluetooth devices. and z A Bluetooth client—these devices use the service(s) provided by Bluetooth servers. Bluetooth for Windows provides: z Clients with the means: ¾ To locate other Bluetooth devices in the immediate vicinity (inquiry). ¾ Discover the services that those devices offer (discovery). ¾ Connect to, use, and disconnect from those services. z Servers with the means: ¾ To include/exclude individual services in the list of services it provides to clients. z Extensive security, including: ¾ Authorization ¾ Authentication ¾ Encryption BTW supports: z Windows 2000 z Windows 98SE(Second Edition) z Windows Me(Millennium Edition) BTW functions the same, regardless of the supported version of Windows it is running on. Wistron NeWeb Corp. BT-500 User Manual Icons Used for Devices and Services Bluetooth for Window’s icons provide at-a-glance feedback about a device or service’s status by changing color and form. Device icons turn green when a connection is active. The device icons also indicate if devices are paired (“trusted”). If a device is trusted, the icon form changes to include a white check mark in a black circle. The service icons also turn green when a connection is active. To view an illustration of the device and service icon types in Bluetooth Neighborhood, open the Help menu and select Help Topics. On the Contents tab, double-click the General topic and then the Icons Used for Devices and Services topic. Wistron NeWeb Corp. BT-500 User Manual Search for Devices (Device Inquiry) “Search for Devices” looks for Bluetooth devices in the vicinity and displays the devices it finds in Bluetooth Neighborhood. Bluetooth for Windows automatically searches for devices when Bluetooth Neighborhood is opened. To start the Search for Devices when Bluetooth Neighborhood is open: z In Bluetooth Neighborhood, double-click the Search for Devices icon or Open the Bluetooth menu and select Search for Devices. Wistron NeWeb Corp. BT-500 User Manual NOTE: The Bluetooth menu is only visible in Windows Explorer when Exploring the Bluetooth Neighborhood. BTW can be configured to automatically search for devices on regular basis (Bluetooth Configuration window > Discovery tab). One of the advantages of Bluetooth is the mobility the wireless connections allow. However, mobility means that devices may move in or out of connection range during the time between the automatic updates performed by BTW. To be certain that the displayed list of devices in the neighborhood is current, or if automatic periodic inquiry is not enabled, force an up-to-date view by clicking Search for Devices. Some devices within connection range may not show up in the list of devices found because: z Your device is configured to report only specific types or classes of devices( Bluetooth Configuration window > Discovery tab, on your device). z The un-listed device is configured to be non-discoverable (Bluetooth Configuration window > Accessibility tab, on the un-listed device). Wistron NeWeb Corp. BT-500 User Manual Wistron NeWeb Corp. BT-500 User Manual Find a Service (Service Discovery) After BTW has identified the available Bluetooth servers within connection range the client can make use of the services provided by those servers. The process of determining the services that are available is called Service Discovery. The services supported by BTW are: Bluetooth Serial Port-establishes a Bluetooth wireless connection between two devices. The connection mybe used by applications as though a physical serial cable connected the devices. Dial-up Networking-allows a Bluetooth client to use a modem that is physically attached to the Bluetooth server. Fax-allows a Bluetooth client to wirelessly send a fax using a device that is physically attached to the Bluetooth server. File Transfer-establishes a Bluetooth wireless connection that allows your computer to perform file system operations on another Bluetooth-enabled device -brows, drag/drop, open, print, cut/copy, paste, delete, rename, etc. Information Exchange-establishes a Bluetooth wireless connection between two devices so that they can exchange personal information manager data such as business cards, calendar items, email messages, and notes. Information Synchronization-establishes a Bluetooth wireless connection between two devices and uses the connection to synchronize Personal Information Manager data between the two devices. Network Access-establishes a Bluetooth wireless connection between the client and the server that is physically connected to the Local Area Network. If the client has permission (user name and password for the LAN), the wireless connection can be used as if the client were hardwired to the LAN. All Bluetooth servers do not necessarily provide all of these services. For example: z Network gateways such as those in WIDCOMM’s BlueGate series only provide access to the Local Area Network (the Network Access service). z A Bluetooth-enabled cellular telephone may provide only: ¾ Dial-up Networking (access to the Internet). ¾ A Bluetooth Serial Port (used to exchange PIM information with your computer). To determine which services are provided by a Bluetooth device, right-click the device and select Discover Available services from the popup menu. Wistron NeWeb Corp. BT-500 User Manual Local Services Local Services are those services that a Bluetooth server is capable of providing. The services provided by BTW are: z Bluetooth Serial Port. z Dial-Up Networking. z Fax. z File Transfer. z Information Exchange. z Information Synchronization. z Network Access. The names of all the services a displayed even though the server may not be capable of supporting all services. For example, when a server provides a service that is hardware-dependant that server must be capable of local action, for example, a DialUp Networking server must have a working modem, a Fax server must have a functional fax modem, and a Network Access server must be physically connected to the Local Area Network. All services start automatically by default when BTW is initialized. Automatic start-up can be turned off for individual services (Bluetooth Configuration configured to start automatically it can still be started manually; right-click the service and select Start from the popup menu. To stop a service that is running, right-click the service and select Stop from the popup menu. Stopped services are not available for clients to use. With Local Devices selected, the Details view of Explorer provides basic information about each local service: Wistron NeWeb Corp. BT-500 User Manual Service-the name of the service Startup-Automatic or Manual Status: ¾ Started (COM#)-the service is running and ready to use the COM# ¾ Not Started-the service is not running (not available to clients) ¾ Connected(COM#)-the service is in use, the local port is COM# Device name if connected: ¾ Empty field-the services is not connected ¾ A device name and/or Bluetooth Device Address-identifies that device that is using the service. Connections are usually established and shut down by the client. If it is necessary to interrupt a connection from the server side: 1. Right-click the local service and select Stop from the popup menu. 2. Right-click the local service and select Start from the popup menu to re-start the service. Wistron NeWeb Corp. 10 BT-500 User Manual Security Each service of the server can be configured to require: Authorization—the server operator must acknowledge all connection attempts before a connection is established. z Authentication—the server requires a Personal Identification Number(PIN) code or a Link Key before a connection is established. z Encryption—all data sent between the client and server is encrypted. The default security setting for Authorization, Authentication and Encryption is disabled. Devices can also be paired, a process that eliminates the need to enter a PIN code every time access is attempted.
