User manual

4. The BD Address is not editable because it is the unique Bluetooth

wireless device address embedded in the firmware. All Bluetooth

wireless enabled products use the BD Address to establish

communication links.

5. The Operating Role may be set to Master or Slave (See Section 5.5

for terminology). It may be changed only if your Shark is not

currently connected via Bluetooth

wireless technology– i.e. the

Bluetooth

light indicating connection to another Bluetooth

wireless enabled device on this screen is off. The default is Slave

mode (see #2).

6. The Security Mode may be Enabled or Disabled. By enabling

security, you can force incoming connections to authenticate to the

security PIN. The default is Disabled. If you select Enabled,

your PIN on your Master device must match your PIN on your

Slave device to establish a Bluetooth

wireless connection

between the two devices (i.e. blue light on).

7. The Security PIN may be changed if the device is not currently

connected via Bluetooth

wireless technology (see #2), or if

security is currently disabled (see #6). If you change the PIN, DO

NOT FORGET IT. Customer support cannot recover a lost or

forgotten PIN. The default PIN is "default" (no quotes).

8. The Baud Rate is the speed used for serial communication over

The Shark's serial port. Saving changes to the baud rate triggers

Shark Config to automatically reconnect using the new baud

rate. This reconnection is transparent to the user.

9. The Flow Control may be set to Hardware or None. In Hardware

mode, The Shark uses RTS/CTS to control the flow of

information. When set to None, although The Shark ignores the

flow control lines, it does assert RTS when a Bluetooth

wireless

connection is established. You may use asserted RTS to

activate/wake up your serial device. The default is None.

10. Select Refresh to download all the current settings from The

Shark. Use this to discard unsaved changes and revert back to the

current device settings.

11. Select Reset to reset The Shark settings to the factory defaults

except for the PIN and the Friendly Name.

12. Select Save to save all settings to The Shark. If you have made

any changes and want to keep them, be sure to save them.
