Using a Serial Port Connection
The use of a Bluetooth wireless serial port connection is identical to the use of a physical
cable serial port connection between two devices. As with a physical connection, the ap-
plication that will use the connection must be configured to use the correct serial port.
To determine the communications port assigned to the
Bluetooth serial port:
1. Tap the
Bluetooth icon near the lower right corner of the Today screen, then select
Bluetooth Settings > the Services tab.
2. Select
Serial Port from the services area, and then tap Advanced.
3. The
Outbound COM Port is the lower listing on the screen. You must configure the
application that will use the
Bluetooth Serial Port to send data to this port.
For more information about configuring your application's
Outbound COM port, refer
to the application's documentation.
