Sync Method

To record Bluetooth traffic, Merlin Mobile needs to synchronize to the
piconet under observation. Merlin Mobile does not participate in the piconet
and behaves as a passive listener. It needs, however, to communicate briefly
with the devices in the piconet to learn the Master clock and frequency
hopping sequence.

Sync Method options let you configure how Merlin Mobile synchronizes to
the piconet under observation. There are three options:

Sync and Record

Passive Sync & Record

Page Sync & Record

Note

If the selected Hop Sequence is "Reduced Hop" or "Single Frequency," the Sync
Method is set to "Test Mode" and cannot be modified by the user.

To the right of the Sync Method menu are two menus which let you select
or enter address for the devices in the piconet:

Master Address - Presents a drop-down list of Master devices found
previously. You can also enter address values in this box.

Page Target -- Presents a drop-down list of Page Target devices found
previously. You can also enter address values in this box.

Between the two text boxes is the following button:

- Swaps the Master and Page Target addresses.

When to Use the Different Piconet Recording Modes

Page Sync & Record is the preferred option and should be used whenever
possible. If Page Sync & Record can not be used, then Sync & Record
should be used. Passive Sync and Record should be used only if the first
two options can not be used.
