User's Manual
In the above example, the traveller and his/her counterpart correspond to the devices, the
languages to the profiles, and the dialogues between the two people to the services. The
former example refers to a situation where a service can be performed because the
devices support a common profile, whereas the latter example refers to a situation where
a service cannot be performed because a common profile is not supported.
In other words, you will be able to use Bluetooth devices that have a profile supported by
a PC (the Bluetooth Utility in this case).
If the profiles belonging to the device are not supported by the PC, the functions
corresponding to those profiles will not be able to be utilized. Also, a device can only be
used if its profiles are supported by the PC.
