About the Red-M Blade

The Red-M Blade is a simple and innovative accessory that adds a new level of flexibility to your Palm
TM
Vx handheld. Whether you are in the office or on t he road you can enjoy hass le-free, wireless connection to personal, corporate and public data.
TM
With a Red-M Blade and a Bluetooth
enabled mobile phone, you can access the Internet, and send and receive email. The connection is cable- free and there is no longer any need to carefully line up your P alm Vx handheld with your mobil e phone or PC to achieve a line-of-sight, infrared connection.
You can perform a wireless HotSync
®
operation to your laptop via your Red-M Blade instead of the usual Palm cradle. When away from the office, you can perform a remote HotSync operation via your mobile phone. The Red-M Blade also enables you to interact with other Bluetooth-enabled Palm Vx handhelds.
If your office has Bluetooth infrastructure installed, you can use your Palm Vx with the Red-M Blade attached in meeting rooms and other Bluetooth enabled areas to maintain connection to the corporate intranet o r Internet, to send and receive emai ls, and to update your calendar.

Red-M Blade - Bluetooth Clip-on for Palm Vx User Guide

Red-M Blade overview

This section lists the Bluetooth services provided by the Red-M Blade. It describes the additional options and menu items that you will find on your Palm Vx handheld following installati on of the Red-M Blade software. It also explains how to use device categories and the information used when you con nect to the Internet.

Bluetooth services

To enable the Red-M Blade to connect to a number of different types of devices, Red-M software supports three Bluetooth services:
LAN Access Use this service to connect to Bluetooth network
infrastructure.
Dial-up Networking Use this service to connect to a Bluetooth-enabled mobile
phone.
•Serial Use this service to perform a HotSync op erat ion with a
computer or to connect to another Palm Vx handheld to play games.

Additions to Palm Vx menus

When you have completed the software installation, you will find some additional items on your Palm Vx handheld System, Prefs
menus.
•the option Bluetooth has been added to the pick list in the upper-right corner of the System, Prefs screen. From the Bluetooth preferences screen you can set the default device categories for each Bluetooth service which enables you to automate your Bluetooth conne c ti ons (see Managing Bluetooth devic es below).
7
four Blueto ot h co nnec t ion c onf ig ur at io n s (Bt LAN Access, Bt Dial-up, Bt Serial and Bt Serial Host) have been added to the
Available Configurations list on the System, Prefs, Connections screen. Choose Connections from the pick list described
above to access this screen.
a new network service called Bt LAN Access on the System, Prefs, Network screen (choose Network from the pick list) . This is the service that is use d to connect to a Bluetooth-en abled local area ne twork.

Managing Bluetooth devices

Before your Red-M Blade can connect to any other Bluetooth device it must first discover other Bluetooth devices within range.
You can discover all Bluetooth-enabled devices within range of your Red-M Blade by performing a ‘device discovery’. Once discovered, you can move devices into categories such as Phones, Computers and Access Points, for easy management and automated con nection to each Bluetooth serv ic e.
Using categories
Each Bluetooth service (Dial-up, LAN access and Serial) has a default device category assigned to it. Whenever a Bluetooth connection is requested, your Palm Vx handheld will automatically connect to a device in the Bluetooth service’s default category. F or example, if you place your mobile phone into the Phones category, you can specify that each time you make a Bluetooth Dial-up networking connection, your Palm Vx handheld shou ld connect to a device in the Phones category. Similarly, if you put a Red-M Access Point into the Access Points category, you can specify that each time your Palm Vx handheld makes a LAN Access connection, it should connect to a device from the Access Points category.
8
Red-M Blade - Bluetooth Clip-on for Palm Vx User Guide
If a category contains multiple devices, the Red-M Blade will connect to the first avai lable device. This is use ful if, for ex ample, there are several LAN Access Points in your office to which you can connect.
File devices into categories using Bluetooth preferences screen 2.
When you have installed the Re d- M Blade software, the Phones, Access Points and Computers categories will already be available for you to use. You can add, delete and merge categories as required using the Edit categories option from the pick list on this screen.
Set the default device category for each Blue­tooth service by using Bluetooth preferences screen 1. You can also set the default device cat­egory to Prompt. If you do this, when the Palm Vx handheld needs to make a Bluetooth connec­tion, you will be asked whi c h ca te gory and/or device to which you want to connect.

Palm network service settings

When an application (for example, a WAP browser) on the Palm Vx handheld wants to use the network, the netw ork s ervice that will be used to make the connection will be the service that is displayed on the System, Prefs, Network screen.
Each network service has a Connection setting, which determines the physical network connection used. Connections are managed through the System, Prefs, Connection screen.
Red-M Blade software adds a network service setting called Bt LAN Access, with Connection set to Bt LAN Access. This is the network service that is used when you c onnect to Blu etooth LAN Access Points.
If you are connecting to an intranet or the Internet via a Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone, you must add a new network service and set Connection to Bt Dial-up. For more information, see Configuring a co nnection to the Inter net via a mobile phone on page 14.
When a network se r vice using Bt LAN Access or Bt Dial-up connection is used, the device used to make the conne c tion will
9
be one that is stored in the default device category for LAN Access or Dial-up respectively.
Your System, Prefs settings determine which Bluetooth - enabled device and which network service will be used to make the connection. The diagram below illustrates how the information on the Bluetooth and Network screens from System, Prefs settings is used when internet connection is made.

Attaching th e Red-M B la de

Before attaching the Red-M Blade, note down its Bluetooth address, which is pr inted on its front. Depending on your Bluetooth security settings, this may be required to identify the Red-M Blad e when connect ing to Bluetoot h services.
The Red-M Blade has a 10-pin connector at the bottom, which is identical to the one on your Palm handheld serial cradle. T o attach the Red-M Blade, simply slide your Pa lm handheld onto the Red-M Blade's connector as you wo uld for mounting in its serial cradle. Once connected, push the Palm handheld back towards the Blade until you hear a ‘click’.
