2 – Basic Operations
2) Double-click on the icon for the device you wish to connect to. BlueSoleil will begin to
search for information about which services the device supports.
3) After the search, icons will be highlighted (yellow) at the top of the BlueSoleil Main Window
for services that are supported by the device. Verify that the service you want to use is
supported.
4) Right-click on the device icon. In the pop-up menu, click Connect, then select the service.
BlueSoleil will start the connection. Depending on the security settings of each device, you
may need to enter the same passkey on each device in order to bond the two devices.
5) A screen may appear asking if you want to set up automatic connections. Click Yes or No.
6) If you are connecting to a phone, your phone may ask if you want to ask the BlueSoleil
computer to your device list. Enter Yes and enter a passkey.
7) When the devices have successfully connected, the device icon in the Main Window will turn
green, and a green line will appear between the red ball and the device icon. A red dot will
travel along the green line from the client to the server. A signal strength icon will also
appear next to the device icon.
The BlueSoleil icon in the task tray will also turn green to indicate an active connection.
NOTE: A red check mark will appear next to the name of any device that you have
previously paired with your computer.
8) Depending on which services you are using, additional screens may appear, and/or you may
need to configure additional connection settings (e.g., user name, password, COM port
number, etc.). Refer to the instructions in Chapter 3, Bluetooth Profiles for your specific
service. After configuring the appropriate connection settings, you should be ready to use
your application.
9) To end a connection in the Main Window, right-click on the icon for a connected device. In
the pop-up menu, click Disconnect.
NOTE: You can only disconnect this way if your computer is acting as a client device. If
your computer is acting as a server device, then you can disconnect in BlueSoleil by clicking
View | Service Window, then right-clicking on the service icon. In the pop-up menu, click Stop
Service. Alternatively, you can disconnect from the remote device.
