Audio Gateway link establishment
In the previous section, we took a look at the
principles behind various ways of using the Audio
Gateway service. Whichever of the mentioned
applications you want to use, you need to
establish a Bluetooth Audio Gateway link between
your computer and Bluetooth enabled headset.
The link can be established by both devices.
To establish the Bluetooth Audio Gateway link
from the Bluetooth Neighborhood: Either drag the
local Audio Gateway service to the icon in the list
view symbolizing your headset. Or carry out
service discovery on the headset first, then drag
the local Audio Gateway service to the remote
Headset service:
Now, enable the audio (sound): Right-click either
the icon for the Audio Gateway in the Local
Services bar or the icon for the remote service in
the list view. Select Enable audio.
When the audio is enabled, the Bluetooth link is
making use of two profiles: Headset and Generic
Audio. Or, in other words, in addition to the Audio
Gateway service, your Bluetooth link involves the
Audio service.
You now have a Bluetooth link between your
computer and headset. Put on your headset and
participate in a NetMeeting, listen to music, or
make a phone call!
If you want to maintain the Audio Gateway link but
disable the sound, you can do so by
disconnecting the Audio link (i.e. the link involving
the Audio service), cf. the section "Disconnecting"
.
This may be convenient if for example while you
are listening to some music, a colleague enters
your office to talk to you. Now, to turn off the
music while talking to your colleague, disconnect
the Audio link. When you are ready to continue
listening to the music, simply enable the audio as
described above.
Note: You can make settings for automatic
enabling of audio on link establishment and for
sound quality; please see the section “Headset
settings”.
