2.3.1 Common Options
All of the services have some common settings. Even though the options are the same, in
each case they are specific to the service being configured on the individual tabs.
The common options are listed under the About this service heading on each individual
service tab. They are:
•
Enable service: check this option to have the service start when BTW-CE
initializes. When this option is enabled the service is enabled and “listening” for
connection attempts when Bluetooth is enabled.
• Authorization required: check this option to require that each attempt to
establish a connection be individually authorized. When Authorization is enabled
and a remote device attempts to connect to this service, BTW-CE asks if the
connection should be permitted (see also Section 3.2.2.2, Permissions).
•
Authentication (PIN) required: check this option to require a Personal
Identification Number (PIN code, also called a password or passkey) or a Link
Key from the remote device before allowing the connection.
When this option is enabled and a remote device attempts to establish a
connection, the Bluetooth Passkey screen (Figure 7) appears. Enter the passkey
to allow the connection to proceed, or tap the OK button to deny permission for
the connection.
If the notification is ignored, the connection attempt will time out (fail).
• Encryption required: check this option to require that all the data exchanged
between this device and the remote Bluetooth device be encrypted.
Encryption depends on the key that is used for Authentication; if Authentication
is not enabled, Encryption will not be available.
Only the data exchanged by the Bluetooth devices is encrypted.
The individual services, and their unique options, are explained in the remainder of this
section.
