Connections Properties — INITIATOR MODE
When to connect
•
Connect automatically
: Select
for the CSA to connect
automatically.
Note: If you check
Connect
automatically
, the CSA will
need to receive a software
command to initiate a
connection.
•
Only when DTR is
asserted by the local
host
: Check ONLY IF
you know that the
local host sends DTR
(Data Terminal
Ready) signals. If you
are not sure, uncheck
the box.
Important!
If you check
Only when DTR is asserted by local host
, the CSA will only
initiate connections after receiving DTR signals from the local host. If you
are not sure whether your local host sends DTR signals, or if you have
trouble connecting, UNCHECK this box.
If you enable
Connect automatically
but disable
Only when DTR is asserted
by local host
, the CSA will always automatically try to connect to the
target device. If the target device is within range, you may have trouble
using the Socket CSA Configuration Utility, because the CSA has already
connected to the target device. If you are experiencing these problems,
move the target device about 10-30 meters away (outside the Bluetooth
range), in order to break the connection.
Notifications
•
Notify local host of
Bluetooth
events
: Select ONLY IF you know your
local host can accept notifications of
Bluetooth
events. Some devices
cannot accept such notifications and will malfunction.
•
Do not generate notification:
Select if your local host cannot accept
notifications of
Bluetooth
events, or if you are not sure whether or not
your local host can accept them.
Note: Notifications may be useful if you are writing custom software for
the CSA. Your software would decide how to process notifications.
