3.1 Definition of the terms:
This equipment is defined as the Bluetooth Media System. To control
the media system, the devices is typically connected to a PC via a
TCP/IP connection.
1. Bluetooth Master: Bluetooth device that can initiate a new
connection
Page 8 of 38
ZBA Inc
94 Old Camplain Road
Hillsborough NJ 08844
ZBA, Inc.
2. Bluetooth Slave: Bluetooth device that can only answer a master
that has initiated a new connection.
3. Bluetooth Profiles: Wireless interface specifications for
Bluetooth-based communication between devices. In order to
use Bluetooth technology, a device must be compatible with
the subset of Bluetooth profiles necessary to use the
desired services. The following profiles are supported by
the Media System: a) FTP File Transfer Protocol b) OBEX Object
Exchange
4. TCP/IP: A hierarchy of internet communication protocols
named for two of the
Transmission Control
Protocol (IP), which
protocols defined in
most important protocols in it: the
Protocol (TCP) and the Internet
were the first two networking
this standard.
5. Cat 5e cable: It’s an enhanced version of Cat 5 that adds
specifications for far end crosstalk. It was formally
defined in 2001 as the TIA/EIA-568-B standard, which no
longer recognizes the original Cat 5 specification.
3.2 GETTING STARTED with your Bluetooth Media System
1. Connect the Media System’s network interface cable (CAT5) to an
Ethernet connection that will route to the internet. This is
typically a router or switch.
2. Apply power to the Media System (12VDC Center Positive 1 Amp)
3. After a power–on reset sequence, the power indicator LED will remain
steady RED.
4. The Bluetooth indicator LED (3rd from left) will blink once
indicating that the Bluetooth devices in the Media System have been
started. After a few seconds the Bluetooth activity indicator LED
will flash multiple times indicating that the Bluetooth devices are
ready to commence discovery of potential slave devices.
5. Testing your Bluetooth Media System connections
a. Testing the Media System connection to the PC
i. If you are connecting the Media System directly to a PC
then you will need a CAT5e cross-over cable.
ii. If you are connecting the Media System to the PC via a
router or an Ethernet switch then a standard CAT5e cable
is needed.
iii. The default IP address of the Bluetooth Media System is
192.168.1.111 (note: the IP address may be changed).

iv. You can use the “ping” command from the MS-DOS prompt to
test the connectivity between the PC and the Media
System. Figure3.1 shows the results of a properly
connected Media System.
Figure 3.3.1- Ping command from MS-DOS prompt.
v. If the “ping” command fails, please check the cable
connections.
b.
Launching the Bluetooth Media System
i. Open your IE browser and, in the address bar, enter the
IP address of your Media System (such as
http://192.168.1.111). Then hit the "Enter" key. A
window will appear as shown in Figure 3.2.
ii. An alternative method to launch the Media System is to
run the BTADConfig.exe program. This program will detect
any Media System that is connected and, by simply
highlighting one of the discovered systems, you can
double click on the system of interest and the program
will automatically launch Internet Explorer and bring
you to the logon screen.
iii. Enter the user name and password. (The default user
name: admin; default password: admin).

cause the screen shown in Figure 4.5 below to appear.
Figure 4.4.5 - Message Sending Policy Dialog Box
The items in the listing in Figure 4.5 above are defined as follows.
1. Maximum Parallel Amount: This is the number of Bluetooth
devices that the Media System can connect to at any one
time. The number can vary between 0-28. Note that if the
parameter is set to 0, this is equivalent to setting the
maximum number of slave devices to 28. The maximum
available connections is the number of Bluetooth radios
times seven (7). For a system with four radios, the maximum
number of connections is 28 and for a one radio system the
maximum is seven.
2. Sending Interval: The first of these Sending Interval
parameters is the same file/same device transmission time
interval. This is the setting of the time interval after
which the same content is sent to the same Bluetooth
device. The default setting is 86,400 seconds (24 Hours).
If the parameter is set to 0, the same document will never
be sent to the same Bluetooth device.
3. Sending Interval: The second of these Sending Interval
parameters is the different file/same device transmission
time interval. This is the setting of the time interval
after which different content is sent to the same Bluetooth
device. The default setting is 60 seconds.
Page 17 of 38

ZBA, Inc.
4. Maximum Receiving Amount: This parameter will set the
maximum number of files sent to any specific Bluetooth
device in any one day. The default setting is 0 which
corresponds to an unlimited amount.
5. Reject/Cancel Count:
This is the minimum number of times a
Bluetooth device will be allowed to cancel or refuse to
receive a message in the same interval as set in item #2
above before no more files are sent to that device during
that same interval. The default setting is 5.
Once all of the above parameters have been set-up then the Bluetooth
Media System needs to be restarted for the new configuration parameter
values to take effect. As always you can wait until you have completed
the entire set-up configuration before restarting the Bluetooth Media
System. (See the System Configuration section for the restart
procedure).

Figure 4.4.6
- List of Content Files
The items shown in Figure 4.6 above are a listing of the current files
in the Media System that can be transmitted during a particular
advertisement campaign.
The files can be broken up into as many different groups as needed
(see section 6 for a discussion on content management). In the
example above we only show one group. That group contains only one
file called Thanks.txt. Each of the files in this section may be
assigned a starting and ending time. The time slot as show in the
example indicates that the beginning time in which this specific file
may be transmitted is 2AM and the end time is Midnight. If there are
other files in the same group that share the same time slot then the
files may be prioritized. The priority is related to the order in
which the files will be transmitted from the Bluetooth Media System.

9. The headings in Figure 4.8 are defined as follows:
a. Sequence ID: The send sequence # beginning with the last
first.
b. Sending Time: The time of the transmission.
c. Bluetooth Address: The Bluetooth slave device address.
d. File Name: The name of the transmitted file.
e. Sending State: The status of the transmission with values
defined as follows.
1) Success - This means that the advertisement file was
successfully transmitted to a slave device, i.e.
either a mobile phone or any other Bluetooth enabled
device.
2) Interrupt - This describes a condition where the slave
device was initially in range but before the user
could accept the file the mobile device became out of
range and the Bluetooth Media System lost the
connection.
3) Nonsupport – This corresponds to a situation where the
Bluetooth Media System found a slave device connected
but the slave device does not have the required
support for one of the required Bluetooth profiles.
4) Non-acceptance – This is a condition where the
Bluetooth media System has made a successful
connection but the user has failed to respond and the
media system has subsequently dropped the connection.
(Certain phones like the Mitsubishi model # 368 is
configured to automatically send a non-acceptance
response)
5) Reject - This is a situation where the Media System
successfully connected and asked for permission to
transfer a file. The response from the user was to
not receive the ad.
6) Fail – The transfer was not accepted but not for any
of the above reasons.

Clear transmission records
Figure 4.4.9 - Clear Records
Figure 4.9 shows the screen that will allow the user to clear the
transmission records that are stored in the Media System. Please
EXERCISE CAUTION when using this function since deleting the records
cannot be undone.
4.5 Black and White listing
The Bluetooth Media System has the capability to white and black
list specific slave devices. The effect of adding a slave device
Bluetooth ID to the Black list will prevent that particular device
from receiving any content. Of course, an ID entered on the white
list will have the opposite effect.
As shown in Figure 4.10 below, the White List Dialog Box allows you
to add and/or edit the Bluetooth addresses of specific slave
devices. Only one is shown in this figure.

The same functionality is supported for the Black List. As shown in
Figure 4.11 below, the Black List Dialog Box allows you to add
and/or edit the Bluetooth addresses of specific slave devices.
Again, only one is shown in the figure.
Figure 4.4.11 - Black List
Of course, any Bluetooth slave device logged in the sent records can
be added to the White or Black Lists. Referring back to Figure 4.7,
the Bluetooth devices can be added to either of these lists directly
from that menu.

6 Content Management
The Bluetooth Media System can operate without the use of a PC. To
operate as a standalone device the content must be added to the
system and of course routinely updated. The following section of the
user manual will show the proper procedure to update the advertising
or file content for the system.
6.1 USB Content Update Procedure for Stand Alone Operation
The Bluetooth Media System also has a USB memory stick interface. The
system allows the user to build a set of advertising files on their
PC and then upload this information via the memory stick to the
Bluetooth Media System. Figure 6.1 shown below has three different
advertisement files currently located in two different groups. Two
files are .jpg and the other file is a text file.

Figure 6.6.1 - List of Files Currently Available in the Media
System
6.2 The specification for the content
The Media System can store in non-volatile Flash RAM up to 2GB of
content information. Therefore each individual advertisement can
theoretically be large. However, keep in mind that the size of a
file dictates the amount of time it takes to download it to the
prospective client. While transmission speeds of the ZBA Media System
are quite fast, the attention span of a prospective client may indeed
be quite short. The files in the example above were approximately 30
KB in size.

The following image shown in Figure 6.2 is taken from a Samsung SMART
phone as it would be displayed to the user. The resolution of the
image is quite good and the download time could be measured in just a
few seconds.

6.3 Procedure for Uploading Advertising Content when the Media System is
Operating as a Standalone Device
1) In the Root Directory of a USB memory stick, create a folder
called “adfiles”.
2) Open the “adfiles” folder and create some sub-folders. For
example, group1 and group2.
Page 30 of 38

3) Place the files you want to transmit in either of the two
folders under the “adfiles” folder; the group 1 and group 2
folders in this example.
4) Run the BTADFileManager.exe executable file and the following
screen will appear.
Friendly name can be
entered here
Figure 6.6.3 - Advertising Media Content Update Program
5) The next step is to import the appropriate directory. In the
example shown here, it’s the folder named “adfiles” from the
root directory of the memory stick.
6) At this point you can click on the individual files and enter
a friendly name.
7) Then click SAVE (S) and the program will ask you to save a
file called update.db. It is important that you save this
file to the root directory of the memory stick!
8) At this point it is safe to stop and remove the memory stick
from the PC.
9) Close the file manager.
10) Simply plug memory stick into the Bluetooth Media System.

1.The CPU in the Media System will detect the presence of
the USB memory stick and look for the appropriate update
files.
2.The updated files will then be copied to the flash memory
of the Media System. The system is ready to attract
customers.
6.4 Procedure for Uploading Advertising Content when the Media System is
Accessible using an Ethernet Connection.
1) In the Root Directory c:\, create a folder called “adfiles”.
2) This is a optional step: Open the “adfiles” folder and create
some sub-folders. For example group1 and group2.
3) Place the files you want to transmit in either of the two
folders under the “adfiles” folder; the group 1 and group 2
folders in this example.
4) Run the BTADFileManager.exe file and the screen as shown in
Figure 6.3 will appear.
5) The next step is to import the appropriate directory. In
the example shown here, it’s the folder named “adfiles” from
the root directory (c:\).
6) At this point you can click on the individual files and
enter a friendly name.
7) Then click SAVE (S) and the program will ask you to save a
file called update.db. It is important that you save this
file to the root directory.
8) Go to “My computer” and enter the following in the search
bar
a. FTP://192.168.1.111
