This manual covers installation and configuration of the WindConnect II for use with computers, pocket PCs
(PDAs), or mobile phones that have either embedded
Bluetooth

Bluetooth
technology. A troubleshooting section is also provided in the event that your
WindConnect II does not perform as specified.
The WindConnect II supports the following profiles:
Serial Port Profile (SPP)
Object Push Profile (OPP)
Hardcopy Cable Replacement Profile (HCRP)
Basic Printing Profile (BPP)
Basic Imaging Profile (BIP)
The WindConnect II can be used with devices that use

NOTE: Some sending devices will automatically time out after a few minutes of inactivity. Other sending
devices will keep the connection active until forced to disconnect.

sending device.
