Introduction to Bluetooth
®
After the adapter is installed, you can
establish a link to other Bluetooth
®
-
compatible devices. Establishing
communication between the Sandberg USB
to Bluetooth
®
Class1 Link and a Bluetooth
®
adapter from another manufacturer depends
on the individual model.
There are several ways of establishing
communication between the devices. These
are described below.
Services
Devices with Bluetooth
®
installed will offer
to share their resources with other
Bluetooth
®
devices. These can be used by
double-clicking on the service via the
Bluetooth
®
icon on the Desktop. For
example, a computer with a modem
installed will offer the “Dialup Networking”
service. If it also had a program installed for
sending fax messages, the “Fax” service
would also appear. The service must be
enabled by the computer that has the
modem installed. This is done by right-
clicking on the Bluetooth
®
icon on the
desktop, selecting “Bluetooth Setup
Wizard”, then “I want to configure….”
and selecting which functions/services the
computer should offer to other devices.
ENGLISH
5
Establishing communication via the
Bluetooth
®
icon
If a Bluetooth
®
device is within range of the
adapter, you can right-click on the
Bluetooth
®
icon on the desktop to start the
“Bluetooth Setup Wizard” and search for
other devices. When you establish a link
with a device, it must accept the request
before communication can proceed.
Pairing Bluetooth
®
devices
One option for establishing communication
between two Bluetooth
®
devices is to pair
them so that communication starts
automatically as soon as they are within
range of each other, i.e. within 100 metres.
When pairing two devices, a connection
request must be sent from one device and
accepted by the other. On the device
initiating communication, a PIN code of your
choice must be entered. This PIN code must
also be entered on the device that will
accept pairing. If the PIN codes match, the
devices are paired and communication can
begin.
Whenever they are within reach of each
other, they will recognise each other and be
able to communicate automatically.
The advantage with pairing is that once a
paired connection is established, the
devices will subsequently be recognised
immediately as “approved” devices that can
communicate without the need for further
configuration. Another advantage of setting
up the adapter so that it can only
communicate with known devices is that it
prevents unauthorised access.
It is not necessary to re-enter PIN codes
after the devices have been paired for the
first time.
NB: Devices such as headsets and mice do
not allow you to choose your own PIN code.
Such devices typically have a preset PIN
code. This should be stated in the product’s
user guide.
To configure the adapter to only accept
known devices, do the following:
1. Right-click the Bluetooth
®
icon in the
notification area at the bottom right
corner of the screen.
2. Select “Advanced configuration” ,
click the ”Accessibility” tab and select
”Only devices listed below” in the
”Allow” field.
3. Click the ”Add device” button.
4. Select the device you wish to add to the
list of known devices and click ”OK” .
5. Click ”OK” to return to the desktop.
Bluetooth
®
standards and
communication options
In addition to a physical standard, the
Bluetooth
®
technology comprises a range of
profiles for various forms of communication.
The Sandberg USB to Bluetooth
®
Class1
Link supports several profiles, including:
ENGLISH
6
Bluetooth
®
serial port
Enables two serial devices with Bluetooth
®
to communicate wirelessly with each other.
During installation, a serial/COM port is
created which can be used for
communication. Software designed to use
the computer’s serial/COM ports can thus
communicate in the same way as they
would with a serial cable.
Dialup Networking
Allows a modem on another Bluetooth
®
device to be used to establish a “Dialup”
connection.
Audio Gateway
Allows you to connect a Bluetooth
®
headset
to your computer, in the same way as to a
mobile phone.
File transfer
Allows files to be transferred between
computers in the same way as a traditional
network.
Information interchange
Allows information such as appointments,
e-mails, business cards, etc. to be sent
between devices, e.g. from a mobile
telephone to a computer.
Network access
Allows access via Bluetooth
®
to connect to a
local area network through one of the
computers on the local area network.
