About BlueSoleil

BlueSoleil is Windows-based software from IVT that allows your Bluetooth®

enabled desktop or notebook computer to wirelessly connect to other

Bluetooth enabled devices. BlueSoleil allows MS Windows users to wirelessly

access a wide variety of Bluetooth enabled digital devices, such as cameras,

mobile phones, headsets, printers, and GPS receivers. You can also form

networks and exchange data with other Bluetooth enabled computers or

PDAs.

In order to connect and share services via Bluetooth wireless technology, two

devices must support the same Bluetooth Profile(s) as well as opposite device

roles (i.e., one must be the server, and the other must be the client). Bluetooth

enabled devices often support multiple profiles, and if involved in multiple

connections, can perform different device roles simultaneously.

BlueSoleil supports the following Bluetooth functions (Profiles) in the following

device roles:

Bluetooth Functions (Profiles) Client Server

AV Headphone* V V

Basic Image Profile V V

Dial-Up Networking V

networks. In a Group ad-hoc Network (GN), which functions as an isolated

network, multiple PAN Users (PANUs) are linked together via a GN controller.

Alternatively, a PAN can consist of multiple PANUs linked to a Network Access

Point (NAP), which provides access to external Local Area Network (LAN)

infrastructure. BlueSoleil supports all three of these device roles — GN

(controller), PANU, and NAP.

Typical Usage

• Group Ad-hoc Network (Peer-to- peer networking)

One device acts as the GN, and others function as PANU devices.

These computers can visit each other or use an application based on

TCP/IP.

Figure 1: Group Ad-hoc Network

• Access a LAN via a Network Access Point (or a Computer Acting as a

NAP)

Troubleshooting

Cannot start My

When the program starts, the local device address is 00:00:00:00:00:00.

Please check whether you have properly plug-in your Bluetooth USB dongle or

Bluetooth CF card and whether the device is powered up. Bluetooth USB

dongles can be detected automatically if they are in the IVT known device list

(If you are using a device of a new model, please contact IVT so that the model

can be added to the list). Some Bluetooth CF card device cannot be detected

automatically. Users need to configure the parameters in the menu Tools |

Bluetooth Device... to enable the device.

How can I find my

Bluetooth

device information?

On the center ball, my device, right click and select Properties... on the popup

menu. In the My Bluetooth Device dialog box, there are device names,

device addresses, device manufacturers, device HCI and LMP (Link Manager

Protocol) versions and editions.

Can't find the remote device you want?

First, please check whether the remote device is in discoverable mode. If the

remote device is set to non-discoverable, other devices cannot find it. Second,

please check whether the remote device is within the radio range. Bluetooth

devices have 3 classes. Class 1 devices are high power devices. Their

transmission range are 50-100 meters. Class 2 and class 3 devices are low

power devices. Their transmission range are 10-20 meters. If you still cannot

find the remote device, you can (1) find the device from the history list, so that

you can add it directly to the Main Window. Do this via Tools | Add Device

from History.... (2) If the device is not in the history list, you can also add a

new device directly by inputting the remote device address. Do this via Tools |

Add New Device....

Can't find the remote device's services?

First, please verify that whether the remote device is in connectable mode. If

the remote device is set to non-connectable, other devices cannot connect

to it.

Second, please verify whether the remote device is within the radio range.

Third, please check whether the remote device has connections already.

Currently, some Bluetooth devices do not support scatter net. That is, the

device has limitations in supporting connection among multi-devices at the

same time. It is recommended that users try to connect one to one if the

connection cannot be set up.

Fourth, please verify whether both sides have input the right Bluetooth

passkey if any side is at security level High. The Bluetooth passkey must be

the same at both sides. If both sides have set Fixed Passkey (the default

passkey) and the passkeys are different, the connection cannot be set up

because of the authentication failure.

Authentication Authentication is the process of verifying "who" is at the

other end of the link. Authentication is performed for devices. In Bluetooth this

is achieved by the authentication procedure based on the stored link key or by

pairing (entering a PIN).

Authorization Authorization is the process of deciding if device X is allowed

to access service Y. This is where the concept of "trusted" exists. Trusted

devices (authenticated and indicated as "trusted"), are allowed to access

services. Mistrusted or unknown devices may require authorization based on

user interaction before access to services is granted.

Bluetooth Bluetooth is an open specification for a cutting-edge technology

that enables short-range wireless connections between desktop and laptop

computers, personal digital assistants, cellular phones, printers, scanners,

digital cameras and even home appliances on a globally available band

(2.4GHz) for worldwide compatibility. In a nutshell, Bluetooth unplugs your

digital peripherals and makes cable clutter a thing of the past.

Bluetooth Authentication Bluetooth authentication is the procedure to

verify whether another Bluetooth enabled device has the right to access your

computer. During this procedure, a Bluetooth passkey is asked for on both

connection sides. If the passkeys are the same, the authentication procedure

is a success and the connection can be setup. If the passkeys are different,

then authentication fails and the connection cannot be set up.

Bluetooth Authorization Bluetooth authorization is the procedure to verify

whether you are going to allow (authorize) other Bluetooth enabled devices to

use Bluetooth services on your Bluetooth enabled devices. This procedure

functions in Bluetooth security Mode 2 and applies only to your Bluetooth

services. Every Bluetooth service in your BlueSoleil has the setting of

authorization. And there is an authorization devices list for every service, which

records the devices that you have authorized. The user can change the

authorization status for each device.

Bluetooth Connection Bluetooth functions are in the model of

Client/Server. One Bluetooth device provides services, and another Bluetooth

device uses these Bluetooth services. After connection, a Bluetooth link is set

up between two devices, and the link is called a Bluetooth connection. Users

can disconnect the connection after finishing his job on Bluetooth.

Bluetooth Connection Shortcut Connection shortcut is used for saving

time in searching devices and browsing services. After a connection is

established, it can be saved as a shortcut. The shortcut can be used later to

re-establish the connection, without searching the remote Bluetooth devices

and browsing services. After a connection is setup, the connection can be

saved as a shortcut, which can be used later without searching Bluetooth

devices or browsing services.

Bluetooth Device Bluetooth devices are addressed in two ways: (1) When

referring to the local device configuration, a Bluetooth Device is the local

Bluetooth hardware which can be a USB dongles, a UART device, a PCMCIA

card or a BCSP device. The user is expected to select the interface of his

Bluetooth device in his configuration. (2) When referring to the Bluetooth

application, it is the Bluetooth system as a whole, e.g. a Bluetooth modem,

Bluetooth mobiles or a Bluetooth PDA etc. My PC together with the BlueSoleil

and the Bluetooth dongle would also be addressed as a remote Bluetooth

device by other Bluetooth devices.

Bluetooth Device Address A unique 48-bit address that distinguishes

between different Bluetooth transceivers. Every Bluetooth device has a unique

address so that other devices can find it and communicate with it. The address

appears in the form of 00:03:20:00:0D:0A.

Bluetooth Device Class According to the Bluetooth standard, every

Bluetooth device is assigned a device type, which is represented in device

class. The Bluetooth device class is three bytes in length in the form of

04:01:00. On the computer side, the class may be Server, Desktop or Laptop.

Users will be asked to select it during the first time starting.

Bluetooth Device Inquiry To use Bluetooth, the user has to find the

remote device first. The searching procedure is called device inquiry. There

are two kinds of inquiry procedure, named General Inquiry and Limited Inquiry.

General Inquiry will find all the Bluetooth devices in general discoverable mode

and limited discoverable mode. Limited Inquiry will find only the devices in

limited discoverable mode.

Bluetooth Dongle A Bluetooth device which can be added onto a PC or a

notebook to make it Bluetooth enabled. Typically a USB device.

Bluetooth bonding A user initiates the bonding procedure and enters a

passkey to create a paired relationship between two devices. This differs

from the authentication procedure where the user is requested to enter a

passkey during the establishment of a link.

Bluetooth Passkey In the Bluetooth authentication procedure, a Bluetooth

passkey is requested on both connection sides. The same Bluetooth passkey

should be input on both sides. If the passkeys are the same, the authentication

procedure is successful and connections can be setup. If the passkeys are

different, the connection and authentication will fail.

Bluetooth Peripheral Device This is the implementation of the Bluetooth

Human Interface Device profile (HID). By using HID, a Bluetooth peripheral

input device such as Bluetooth mouse or keyboard can interface with the host

PC remotely.

Bluetooth Security Bluetooth security is an important part for the wireless

communication technology. Illegal access to your computer can be rejected.

There are three levels of security: Low, Medium and High. In Low level, there

is no security check. In Medium level, remote Bluetooth devices can browse

your services. Security is set on every service. The service can be set to

request or not request for authentication and authorization. If you request for

authentication, the remote device will be asked to enter the same passkey as

the one in your PC . Otherwise, the Bluetooth passkey is not asked. If

authorization is set, the remote device has to be in the authorized devices list.

If not, there will be a dialog to ask the user to confirm whether you are going to

allow a remote device to use a services of the local device.

Bluetooth Service A Bluetooth device may offer certain functions for

other Bluetooth devices to use. These functions are called Bluetooth services.

For example, a Bluetooth mobile phone can offer 4 services, which include

synchronization, dial-up networking, file transfer and serial port. In BlueSoleil,

some services are started automatically and other services need to be started

manually before using. The user can also stop a service.

Bluetooth Service Browse A remote Bluetooth device can provide one or

more Bluetooth services. To use the services that the remote device provides,

the user has to find the services first. This is called service browse.

Connectable Bluetooth devices can be connectable or non-connectable.

When the device is connectable, other devices can connect to it.

DHCP The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is an Internet

protocol for automating the configuration of computers that use TCP/IP.

Encryption When a Bluetooth link is encrypted, data are encrypted into

unreadable data using a secret key or password before they are sent over the

air. Data are decrypted after they reach the remote device.

General Discoverable Bluetooth devices have 3 modes: General

discoverable, Limited discoverable and Non-discoverable mode. A Bluetooth

device will respond to a General Inquiry if it is in general discoverable or limited

discoverable mode.

HID A Human Interface device such as keyboard and mouse.

ICS Internet Connection Sharing. For more detailed information about ICS,

please refer to the help topic Internet Connection Sharing of Microsoft

Windows.

Limited Discoverable Bluetooth devices have 3 modes: General

discoverable, Limited discoverable and Non-discoverable mode. In Limited

discoverable mode, a Bluetooth device will respond to a General Inquiry or a

Limited Inquiry.

LAN Access Point One of entities defined in the LA profiles, the LAN

Access Point acts like a router between a Bluetooth piconet and an external

network.

NAP (Networking Access Point) A network access point is a unit that

contains one or more Bluetooth radio devices and acts as a bridge, proxy, or

router between a Bluetooth network and some other network technology

(10baseT, GSM, etc).

NAT Network address translation, which is used to re-map IP's from one

address range to another range of network addresses.

Non-connectable A Bluetooth devices can be connectable or

non-connectable. When it is non-connectable, other devices cannot connect to

it. This is used in BlueSoleil only when the user does not want other device to

connect to their computer.

Non-discoverable Bluetooth devices have 3 modes: General discoverable,

Limited discoverable and Non-discoverable mode. In Non-discoverable mode,

a Bluetooth device will not respond to any inquiry so no device can find it.

Non-pairable A Bluetooth device can be pairable or non-pairable. When it

is non-pairable, it will not accept a bonding request from other devices;

Pairing Devices Pairing allows you to avoid entering access information

each time a connection is set up. Paired devices share a unique Link Key,

which they exchange each time they connect.

PIM Personal Information Management.

Radio Signal Strength Bluetooth works on 2.4G ISM band. The radio

signal is stronger when the remote device is closer or the remote device has a

higher radio output. The radio signal is weak when the remote device is distant

or the remote device has a weak radio output. The strength of the remote

device's radio signal affects the quality of the communication of the two

Bluetooth devices. When the radio signal is weak, the Bluetooth data

transferring speed is slow. However, if the two devices are too close and the

radio signal is too strong, the Bluetooth data transferring speed is also slow

because the "sound" is too loud to "hear". The radio signal strength is always

referred to as RSSI in Bluetooth.

Remote Bluetooth Device All the other Bluetooth enabled devices are

called remote Bluetooth devices in the term of my Bluetooth device. They

could be a Bluetooth modem, Bluetooth mobiles or a Bluetooth PDA etc.

Trusted Device Device having unrestricted access to all services on the

server.
