The CATC BTTrainer™ Bluetooth™ Exerciser is a member of CATC's industry-leading
line of high performance, serial communication protocol analysis tools and test equipment.
Preceded by CATC's BTTracer™, a Bluetooth Protocol Analyzer, BTTrainer has been
designed as an intelligent Bluetooth wireless technology device that can be used as a
verification and validation tester or as an engineering debug and analysis tool. Through its
software interface, designers and test technicians will be able to quickly and easily issue
protocol commands and test sequences to analyze or validate designs to ensure compliance
to the Bluetooth specification. BTTrainer can be used in conjunction with the BTTracer
protocol analyzer, allowing for real-time captures of test sequence results, as is required by
the Bluetooth SIG to provide evidence of product compliance to the specification.
1.1 Applications
BTTrainer is a combination of hardware and Microsoft® Windows®-based application
software. The hardware/software combination is capable of acting as a standard Bluetooth
master or slave device within a piconet. By allowing this capability, BTTrainer can be used
to establish or participate in a piconet and to send or receive data within the piconet.
Through BTTrainer’s Profile Wizard, users can quickly and easily manage Bluetooth
wireless traffic generation. Additionally, via its Command Generator, BTTrainer can issue
individual Bluetooth commands to a device under test, allowing a designer to focus his or
her effort on a specific function or group of functions related to the device. Furthermore,
users can quickly create test sequences with Script Manager, thus eliminating the difficulties
normally associated with the creation of complex test sequences.
1.2 BTTrainer User Interface
The BTTrainer user interface consists of the Main window, the Logs window at the bottom
of the screen, and the Device Status window on the left side of the screen.
The application’s primary tools are run within the Main window: Profile Wizard, Command
Generator, and Script Manager.
Each tool offers a different means of generating traffic.
Note: Only one tool can be run at a time.
• Profile Wizard is a point-and-click tool for creating connections and transferring data
between BTTrainer and other Bluetooth devices. This tool requires little Bluetooth
wireless technology experience and allows you to generate Bluetooth traffic without
having to execute specific Bluetooth commands.
• Command Generator is a tool that presents a menu of protocol commands that can be
selected and executed in virtually any sequence. Command Generator thus offers maxi-
