Step 2 Under General Recording Options, select "Passive Sync & Record."
Step 3 Under the Modes tab in Recording Options, enter the address for the
piconet’s master device.
Step 4 Make up an address for Merlin II and enter it into the Page Target
address in the Modes tab in Recording Options. Make sure you do
not select an address for any other local device.
Step 5 Press the record button on the toolbar in Merlin
II to start a recording session.
Step 6 If necessary, have Master "discover" Merlin II through a General
Inquiry.
Step 7 From the Master device, initiate a page to Merlin II address. This
action will enable Merlin II to synchronize to the piconet. However,

This will cause the Master to time out in this request.
Step 8 At the end of this sequence, the green Sync light will go on solid,
recording will begin and activity will be displayed on the status bar
in the bottom of the analyzer screen.

and beginning the operation without an established piconet. The following
steps show the process.
Step 1 Turn the Master device on and the slave device off. You need the
slave device turned off so that Merlin II can take its place in the
piconet.
Step 2
Enter the slave’s address into Merlin II’s "Page Target" field in the
Modes tab in the Recording Options dialog box.
Step 3 Run "Passive Sync and Record." The Master will then page the
slave’s address and Merlin II will be able to sync.
Step 4 When Merlin II synchronizes to the Master, turn the slave back on.
When the Master re-pages the address the slave is admitted into the
private network. Since Merlin II is passive in this mode, the slave
and Merlin II do not conflict over the shared address. Merlin II is
