User's Manual

options:
¡
Permanent (Connect again)
- This connection will remain in effect until changed. If Autoconnect is
enabled, the connection will be automatically re-established whenever the two devices are in range
of each other.
¡
One-time
- This connection will remain in effect until one of the devices moves out of range or until
the connection is terminated with the Disconnect command.
4. Determine whether the device you wish to connect to requires a secure connection. If the
Pair (Secure
with Passkey)
checkbox is checked, you will be prompted to enter a passkey on your local device. A
matching passkey has to be entered on the remote device for the two devices to become "paired." Future
connections will be authenticated by the devices themselves, using this passkey. Both devices also have to
be configured as "Bondable" under Pairable Mode on the device Properties screen before they can be
securely "paired."
5. After selecting the desired settings on the "Connect to remote Bluetooth device" screen, click OK.
6. You will be prompted to select a Service to connect with on the remote device. Select one of the Services
listed and click OK. The remote device will move from "New Devices" to "Known Devices" and your local
device will appear as a Known Device on the remote device.
7. Once the connection has been established, you can close BlueView by clicking the close box or selecting
Exit from the File menu.
8. You can now use the service you selected on the remote device. See Bluetooth Applications for
instructions on how to use the Bluetooth connection.
Autoconnection to Known Devices
If "Autoconnect" is checked on the Bluetooth menu in the System Tray (right-click the Bluetooth icon), a "known"
remote device and service will be automatically connected whenever the two devices are within range of each
other.
Automatic Device Discovery
You can display known and unknown but "discoverable" devices automatically by using the "Device polling"
setting in the Properties dialog to trigger a Refresh command at regular intervals. Switch the setting on and set
the time interval (in minutes) between automatic Refreshes. Once you have established a Bluetooth link with a
remote device, the auto-refresh feature will display the device whenever it is in range and discoverable, but no
connection will be made.
It is recommended that you use Autoconnect, not Automatic Device Discovery, to connect to known devices
whenever they are in range.
