4. Pairing
Pairing allows you to avoid entering access information each time a
connection is attempted. Paired devices share a unique Link Key, which
they exchange when connecting.
The mate of a pair will always appear in My Bluetooth Places, even if
the mate is not turned on or is out of connection range.
Paired devices remain paired even when:
*One of the devices is powered off.
* A service connection is interrupted or the service stopped.
*One or both devices are rebooted.
When authentication is enabled, devices are paired the first time they
attempt to connect after a successful passkey exchange.
To pair devices before attempting a connection:
1. Right-click the device you want to pair , and select "Pair
Device" item. (See Figure 11)
Figure 11
Page 12
2. The system will require you to enter the Bluetooth Passkey for the
device you want to pair. The Passkey of the two devices have to be
the same. If the Passkey is correct, you will see the following icon,
then the pairing process is successful.(See Figure 12 & 13 )

5. Troubleshooting
1. Cannot connect to a paired device:
Paired devices are always displayed in My Bluetooth Places, even if the remote device is
out of range or not powered up. Verify that the remote member of the pair is within radio
range and powered up and then attempt the connection again.
2. Cannot discover services on an un-paired remote:
The remote device may not be powered up or may be out of range.
Be sure to restart your computer after installing the software.
Verify that the remote device is powered up.
Verify that the remote device is in the Connectable mode (Bluetooth Configuration Panel >
Accessibility tab).
Perform a Search for Devices to verify that the device is within range.
3. Dial-up networking service does not start:
The Dial-up Networking service will not start unless a properly configured modem is attached to
the server.
Verify that the modem is usable as a local device from the server.
In the Bluetooth Configuration Panel, Local Services tab, double-click the
Networking service.

Click the down arrow in the Modem field and select the modem that will be used to dial out
Click the "OK" button
4. How do I determine the Bluetooth device address (BDA) of my
hardware device?
In the Bluetooth configuration panel, on the Hardware tab (see Figure 7) , in the devices section,
select the device for which you want to determine the address of. In the device properties
section of the dialog box, the fourth entry, device address, is the BDA of the selected Bluetooth

5. How do I determine the version number of the Bluetooth
specification that the host controller interface (HCI) complies
with?
In the Bluetooth Configuration Panel, on the Hardware tab (see Figure 7), in the Device
Properties section, the fifth entry provides Bluetooth Specification compliance information for
the Host Controller Interface.
The sixth entry contains the Specification Revision information for the Host Controller
Interface, if appropriate.
6. How do I determine the version number of the Link Manager
Protocol (LMP)?
In the Bluetooth Configuration Panel, on the Hardware tab (see Figure 7), in the Device
Properties section, the seventh entry provides Link Manager Protocol version number
information. The eighth entry contains the Link Manager Protocol (LMP) sub-version number
information, if appropriate. BTW Configuration & User Guide Troubleshooting.
7. How do I find information about the Bluetooth hardware
attached to my computer?
In the Bluetooth Configuration Panel, select the Hardware tab (see Figure 7).
8. How do I test a network access connection?
If the client is hardwired to the LAN, unplug the hardwired connection to ensure that
the test checks the wireless connection rather than the hardwired connection. If the
server has access to the Internet, open a browser on the client and connect to the
World Wide Web.
9. Why do I get an unknown port message when I attempt to use
a Bluetooth serial port?
The "unknown Port" error message usually means an attempt was made to connect a
port that was in use. Additional Bluetooth Serial Ports can be added if they are required.
