5.5.3 Human Interface Device

Overview

The Human Interface Device (HID) Application allows this computer to wirelessly use
one or more remote Bluetooth HIDs as input/output devices.

For example, the HID Application allows this computer to use a Bluetooth keyboard
and a Bluetooth mouse.

NOTE:

Some HIDs have multiple modes. Before establishing a connection,
be sure the HID is in the desired mode. For example, in the case of
an HID that can function as both a mouse and a laser pointer, be
sure the mode switch is set to

“Mouse” before attempting to con-

nect.

Once an HID connection is established, that connection will persist. If the computer is
shut down, when the computer is turned on again the connection will re-establish
automatically.

NOTE:

HIDs usually have a button, which is sometimes difficult to find,
that must be pressed before other Bluetooth devices can locate the
HID. Even after the button is pressed, the HID can only be discov-
ered for a limited time, and then the button must be pressed again.
The time period can be as short as 30 seconds or as long as 180
seconds.

Read the documentation that accompanies the HID before you
attempt to connect to the device.
