Before trying to establish a link to a remote

the device facilitates. To find out, you can carry
out service discovery.
Double-click the remote device in the main
window list view, for instance the one named

When the service discovery has been carried out,
the list view will show the services that the remote
device supports:
In some cases, it may not be possible to carry out
service discovery. There could be a number of
reasons for this: The remote user may have set
up his device to reject link establishment attempts

other activity) is not carried out successfully, a
message box will let you know what went wrong.
