About Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology capable of
exchanging information over a distance of about 30 feet without requiring a physical
connection.
Unlike infrared, you don't need to line up the devices to beam information with
Bluetooth. If the devices are within a range of one another, you can exchange
information between them, even if they are located in different rooms.
Note:
When connected to your Bluetooth headset, press the headset multi-function key to use
VoiceSignal’s Voice Dial feature.
Bluetooth Service Profiles
Actually, the Bluetooth specification is a protocol that describes how the short-range
wireless technology works, whereas individual profiles describe the services
supported by individual devices. Profiles reduce the chance that different devices
will not work together.
Your phone supports the following profile service:
•
HSP
: Headset profile
The HSP describes how a Bluetooth enabled headset should communicate
with a computer or other Bluetooth enabled device such as a mobile
phone. When connected and configured, the headset can act as the
remote device’s audio input and output interface.
•
HFP
: Hands-free profile*
HFP describes how a gateway device can be used to place and receive
calls for a hands-free device. A typical configuration is an automobile
using a mobile phone for a gateway device. In the car, the stereo is used
for the phone audio and a microphone is installed in the car for sending
outgoing audio of the conversation. HFP is also used for a personal
computer to act as a speakerphone for a mobile phone in a home or office
environment.
•
SPP
: Serial Port profile
SPP defines how to set-up virtual serial ports and connect two Bluetooth
enabled devices.
