This chapter describes the Bluetooth

pro les recognized

by the Microsoft drivers installed on your Field PC. Drivers

determine which devices your Field PC can communicate

with. If you are using an external Bluetooth CF or SDIO

card and you installed a new driver speci c to this card

(recommended), consult the documentation that came with

the driver for instructions about its pro les.

Note: Bluetooth cards are not recognized by modules with

integrated Bluetooth. For general instructions about using an

integrated Bluetooth module, see Chapter 8.

This chapter is organized by Bluetooth pro le, each of which

is brie y described below. Instructions for using each pro le

to create Bluetooth partnerships follow.

• Serial Port Pro le (SPP). Similar to a serial cable, this pro le

acts as a liaison between two devices, such as the Field

PC and a GPS receiver, using virtual ports. (These ports

are described in the previous chapter.)

• Dial-Up Networking (DUN). Lets you connect to a

computer through a cell phone or a Bluetooth-enabled

modem.

• Human Interface Device (HID). Allows you to

communicate between the Field PC and a Bluetooth

keyboard or mouse.

• Object Push Pro le (OPP). This pro le lets you exchange

 les like data, audio, business cards, appointments, and

contacts. Similar to the well-known object exchange

pro le (OBEX).
