Using Your MP3200

Connecting MP3200BT through Bluetooth

The MP3200BT is equipped with a Bluetooth module which is

compliant with the up-to-date Bluetooth

1.2 wireless technology.

This enables wireless connectivity between MP3200BT and

most Bluetooth-enabled devices, such as PC, laptop, PDA, PDT

and mobile phone, etc.

Usually, all actions between a program installed on your

computer and a remote Bluetooth device are carried out by the

Bluetooth services. A Bluetooth device can offer one or more

services. These popular services include Serial Port (SPP),

Dail-Up Networking (DUN), Human Interface Device (HID),

Generic Object Exchange (GOEP), Personal Area Networking

(PAN), Lan Access (LAP), Generic Access (GAP), and so on.

The MP3200BT supports Serial Port service (SPP) which is

one of the most popular Bluetooth services providing the serial

radio link between Bluetooth master and slave devices. Under

Bluetooth SPP, the remote Bluetooth system always acts as a

master and MP3200BT always acts as a slave. The MP3200BT

will only wait for the connection request issued by the remote

Bluetooth master system to establish the radio link. Once the

pre-built radio link is lost, the user has to re-build the radio link

manually.

Usually, the resident Bluetooth drivers will configure the SPP

connection as one of the virtual COM ports in your host system

that can be controlled and utilized by the user’s application

programs. If your host system supports the functionality of

PICONET, up to 7 units of MP3200BT can be connected to the

same host system simultaneously. When a PICONET is formed,

the host system acts as the

master while the MP3200BTs act as

slaves for the duration of the PICONET connection.
