Step 6

When the piconet is established, the "Sync" light on the front of
Merlin Mobile will change from flashing to solid, indicating that
Merlin Mobile is fully synchronized to the piconet and is currently
recording all traffic within that piconet.

Note

If the "sync" light on the front of Merlin Mobile does not change from
flashing to solid it means that Merlin Mobile did not synchronize with the
piconet when it was established.

Additional Settings

Force Re-synchronization

"Force Re-Synchronization" forces Merlin Mobile to re-synchronize at the
beginning of each "Sync & Record," "Passive Sync & Record," or "Sync &
Record" operation. By default, "Force Re-Synchronization" is disabled
(i.e., unchecked).

Unchecking the "Force Re-Synchronization" checkbox tells Merlin Mobile
to use its existing data on Bluetooth devices, thereby bypassing the
synchronization process and saving a few seconds from the beginning of the
trace. If you know that Merlin Mobile’s data is correct, you can uncheck
this checkbox and cause Merlin Mobile to use the existing data. If the data
is incomplete or incorrect, however, Merlin Mobile will automatically
perform a refresh.

To examine Merlin Mobile’s Bluetooth data, open Device List: View
>Device List
.

Follow Master/Slave Switch

If enabled, this option allows Merlin Mobile to follow a role switch between
a Master and Slave. This capability allows Merlin Mobile to keep track of
changes in a device’s role when it changes from one role to another.

Merlin Mobile is able to follow a role change by listening to the Slave
device’s Bluetooth clock and hop frequency as soon as it becomes a Master.

Match Clock Rate

Match Clock Rate is a useful option if the Master device’s clock is
inaccurate. Match Clock Rate causes Merlin Mobile to do a General Inquiry
to determine the Page Target's clock rate prior to synchronizing to the
piconet. If unchecked, Merlin Mobile will begin piconet synchronization
without first doing a General Inquiry.

This option only works with Page Sync and Record mode.
