Changing a local service’s properties
Earlier, we discussed about the five property settings that each of the local services would
have. Here, we’ll show you how to change a local service’s properties and what the options
are.
To change a local service’s properties:
1. Open the Bluetooth Configuration Panel by right-clicking the
Bluetooth Tray
icon
on the Windows system tray. Select
Advanced
Configuration
from the submenu.
The Bluetooth Configuration Panel is displayed.
2. Click
the
Local Services
tab.
3. Double-click the service name.
4. Select the appropriate boxes or leave them cleared, depending on what you want
CREATIVE BLUETOOTH SOFTWARE to do.
Startup Automatically:
enabled by default. When enabled, it starts the
service when CREATIVE BLUETOOTH SOFTWARE initializes. If
Startup
is
disabled, you can still start the service manually.
Note:
To start the service manually at a later time, simply right-click the
service and select
Start
from the pop-up menu.
Security Connection:
enabled by default. When enabled, it using service
with security connection. It requires confirmation by the server operator
before a remote device is allowed to connect to this service. See the detail
information for security type below.
Service Name:
enter a service name (no more than 99 alphanumeric
characters) in this field. In most cases, a service name is supplied by
default. However, in environments where there is more than one device of
the same type or one device provides more than one service of the same
type (this is only possible with the Bluetooth Serial Port service), the service
name can be customized.

To stop a local service, right-click the service and select
