Bluetooth
9.1 Introduction
“ Bluetooth ” is one of Wireless Technologies. The aim of Bluetooth technology is tended to a
low cost, low power, and short-range radio product. The idea to develop Bluetooth is for replacing
physical cable connection in amount of mobile or portable devices.
Any two Bluetooth devices made as a Master-Slave structure creates a Bluetooth piconet
network. A single Bluetooth piconet has one Master and at most seven active Slaves. The
Bluetooth connection is only established between the Master and a Slave in a single piconet. Any
two Slaves in a single piconet cannot create a Bluetooth connection.
9.2 Bluetooth Dongle installation
To use a Bluetooth wireless radio, it is required to install a Bluetooth dongle on each Ministation
that consists of a network and to set up a dongle driver.
Your purchased Ministation provides 2 USB ports. Insert a provided Bluetooth dongle into any
one port inside of Ministation. ( A Bluetooth dongle is an option when Ministation is purchased.)
When Ministation with Bluetooth is purchased, a Bluetooth driver is already installed. But when
you install the Window again, or you do not buy HDD, install the driver by yourself.
(Caution) It is advisable to use a Bluetooth in an open area. Networking may not work best under
the condition of many walls or obstacles.
9.3 Install Level One Bluetooth Software
Insert the Bluetooth Software CD into CD-ROM drive. If the Auto-Run function of CD-ROM is
enabled(in Windows, the default setting of this funcion is usually enabled), installation program will
start automatically. If not, you can utilize the Windows Explorer to browse Cd content and run
Setup.exe manually.
