The Device Search and Device List Pop-Up Menu tools offer shortcut
methods for steps that are commonly performed at the beginning of the
connection process. They can be used for some commands that would
otherwise need to be done in Command Generator.
6.1 Device Search
Merlin's Wand can perform an inquiry to find local Bluetooth wireless
technology devices via the Device Search tool. Information about the
devices that are found are then shown in the Device List.
To perform a Device Search:
Step 1
Open the Device Search dialog by clicking the Device
Search icon
on the toolbar or by selecting Tools > Device
Search from the menu bar.
The Device Search dialog will open.
Device Search presents the following search options:
Search Time -- Sets the duration of the inquiry, in seconds. The default
search time is five seconds.
Number of Responses -- Sets the maximum number of responses for
which data should be collected. The default number of responses is ten.
Read Remote Device Name -- Selecting this option will cause Merlin's
Wand to collect name information from the remote devices it finds. This
option is not selected by default.
Note : The reading of names occurs after the search has finished; therefore, processing
the entire search will take longer if this option is selected. For example, if the
Search Time is set to 5 seconds, and 30 devices are found within 5 seconds, the
entire search process will take much longer than 5 seconds because each device
will be contacted individually and asked for its name. This could add considerable
time to the search, especially if some of the devices found in the search have gone
out of range or been turned off.
