Using the HCI Terminal Application
The HCI Terminal application (included on the BPA105 Bluetooth Protocol
Analyzer product software disk) provides a hardware interface similar to the
interface provided by an AT terminal application when communicating with a
modem. The HCI Terminal application provides control of the BPA105
Bluetooth Protocol Analyzer in piconet member mode. This is similar to using
the Bluetooth Neighborhood from the Software Suite. For further information on
this product, refer to the documentation available on disk.
