QL 320 User’s Guide 23
than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless
devices such as mobile phones.
“Bluetooth” is a worldwide standard for the exchange of data
between two devices via radio frequencies. Bluetooth radios are
relatively low powered to help prevent interference with other de-
vices running at similar radio frequencies. This limits the range
of a Bluetooth device to about 10 meters (about 32 feet).
In order to exchange data, two Bluetooth enabled devices
must establish a connection. Bluetooth software is always run-
ning in the background, ready to respond to connection requests.
One device (known as the
master
or the
client)
must request a
connection with another. The second device (the
slave
or the
server
) then accepts or rejects the connection. A Bluetooth en-
abled QL 320 will normally act as a slave, but in theory any Blue-
tooth device can be either a master or a slave. This miniature
network is sometimes referred to as a “piconet” and can consist
of several Bluetooth enabled devices.
Each Bluetooth QL 320 has a unique Bluetooth Device Address
(BDA) loaded into its Quick Link module when manufactured.
A Typical Bluetooth Connection Sequence
In this simplified sequence “Joe’s Terminal” is a Bluetooth
ready hand held terminal running an application that needs ac-
cess to a printer.
1. Joe’s Terminal performs a search of its “piconet” (a Device
Inquiry) and determines that there are four Bluetooth devices in
the vicinity.
2. Joe’s Terminal queries each of the four nearby devices to
determine which services they provide (a Service Discovery).
The Bluetooth enabled QL 320 “Sandy’s Printer” offers the print-
ing service.
3. Joe’s Terminal sends a print connection request to Sandy’s
Printer.
4. Sandy’s Printer evaluates the request and determines that
Joe’s Terminal is permitted to use the print service,
but only if the
correct password is submitted
.
5. Sandy’s Printer queries Joe’s Terminal for the password (Au-
thentication).
6. Joe’s Terminal returns the correct password and the print
connection is established.
7. After Joe’s Terminal is finished printing it disconnects with
