Outgoing Port acts as a serial port that can be used to connect to a list of Bluetooth devices
(one at a time), but you have the freedom to switch on-the-fly.

The

Outgoing Port

checkbox allows you to create the Outgoing port. When the port is

created, the

Outgoing tab lists the port name.
The Outgoing list dialog box displays a list of services marked as ‘Outgoing’. The * column
indicates the currently selected service. You can tap on Unselect to reset the current selec-
tion, or you can tap on Select to make a selection. The Remove button deletes the service
from the outgoing list.
The Prompt menu determines the behaviour of the pop-up Selection menu. Choosing Ev-
erytime causes the Selection menu to be displayed each time an outgoing port is created. If
you choose Once, the menu is displayed only when a partner service is not selected.
To display the Selection menu at any time:
•

Press [CTRL] [ALT] [F1], and switch the partner Bluetooth device.

If a connection to a partner device already exists, the connection is dropped and another con-
nection to the newly selected device is created instantly without disrupting the application
that has opened the outgoing port.

vation menu).
