7.1.2 Start Configuration :
Device Mode (default is slave )
Depending on the applications, there are two states which Bluetooth to Serial Adapter can operate in
DATA mode. They are Master and Slave states. If you are using a USB Bluetooth Dongle to pair with
a Bluetooth to Serial adapter, then Bluetooth to Serial Adapter can be set to either Master or Slave
state. If you are using two Bluetooth to Serial Adapter to pair together, then one of them shall be set to
Master and another shall be set to Slave.
Master - Trying to link with other Bluetooth devices.
Slave - Waiting to be linked with other Bluetooth devices.
Master state :
If you choose this state, then you
must
enter Bluetooth MAC Address of the
remote
Bluetooth device
(e.g. 000000000000) which this Bluetooth to Serial Adapter will be pairing and connecting with.
Default is none.
Note :
Remote Bluetooth Address can be found by searching
your Bluetooth to Serial Adapter
as shown in page 20.
Slave State : (Default)
Bluetooth to Serial Adapter can be found by searching
Bluetooth Device
on PCs. If it is disabled, then it can not be
found. This feature will prevent other Bluetooth host or
devices to create a link with it accidentally if it has already
been configured to pair with another device before.
