EP10 Hand-Held (Windows Embedded 6.5) User Manual 179
You can assign either a BSP or a COM prefix from the drop-down menu. BSP (Bluetooth
Serial Port) was created by Microsoft to allow Bluetooth to have its own serial prefix in
order to free up virtual COM prefixes as these are limited and are widely used. (In Windows
Embedded 6.5, the COM Ports tab is used to assign a virtual outgoing COM port to a
Paired Bluetooth service, and the Outgoing Port tab is used to assign multiple
outgoing Bluetooth services to a single virtual port.)
