Establishing BWT connections

This section describes how to establish BWT connections using your notebook PC, iPAQ Pocket PC, printer, and cellular phone. The first step is to activate BWT functionality on each device. Then, you can select the services (profiles) that your device will make available to other BWT-enabled devices.

If you decide to operate your device in secure mode, you must pair the device with another BWT-enabled device before they can interoperate. These requirements are explained below.

Enable BWT functionality

If the wireless light (ICON) is off, turn it on by pressing the wireless button on your notebook. Refer to your notebook user documentation if you need help locating the wireless button and light. When you turn on the wireless device for the first time, the Found New Hardware wizard opens. Follow the instructions in the wizard to load the BWT driver.

Set up the BWT software

After the software is installed and BWT functionality is enabled, a Bluetooth icon will appear in the Windows System Tray located in the lower-right part of the screen. The Bluetooth icon provides easy access to Bluetooth operations.

Selecting BWT device profiles

Profiles are services that are available for each BWT-enabled device. When two BWT-enabled devices are within range, they perform a service discovery during which they report a list of available profiles. If any of the profiles for the two devices match, they can connect and interoperate based on the matching profiles.

Summary

Because BWT-enabled devices operate in the unrestricted 2.4-GHz ISM band, numerous manufacturers can develop BWT-enabled products to use this frequency band.

From PDAs that automatically synchronize contact information with your laptop and cell phone, to a car that automatically adjusts the seat and mirrors as you approach it, Bluetooth wireless technology will eventually unite all the gadgets in your world and change forever the way you work and play.
