Upon USB cable connection between the computer and the
Labdisc,
the
GlobiLab
software automatically detects the USB connection and begins communicating with
the
Labdisc
.
3.2 Bluetooth Wireless Communication
Before wireless communication with a
Labdisc
for the first time, the
Labdisc
should
be added as a device to the computer in a process called pairing. Pairing need be
done only once for each
Labdisc
, after which the computer stores the connection
information, including a unique name for each
Labdisc
. When no
Labdisc
is
connected via USB, the computer will automatically try to wirelessly connect to the
last connected
Labdisc
. To connect to a different or a new
Labdisc,
right click on
the Bluetooth icon in the
GlobiLab
status bar,
located at the
bottom right corner of the screen, then click on the
Labdisc
