Serial Port
The Bluetooth Serial Port Profile (SPP) provides Bluetooth enabled devices with a virtual
serial port, so that they can connect to each other wirelessly via Bluetooth instead of a
serial cable.
BlueSoleil supports four Bluetooth Serial Ports for outgoing connections and two
Bluetooth Serial Ports for incoming connections.
Connect to a Bluetooth enabled device
1. Connect to the device’s Serial Port Service.
2. Use ActiveSync or any software that uses a serial connection.
Note:
• Serial Port Auto-Connection function
Once a target device is assigned to a specific serial port, every time that an
application opens that port, BlueSoleil will automatically connect to the target
device. Every time that an application closes the Bluetooth serial port, BlueSoleil
will stop the connection. To see which devices are assigned to which COM ports,
go to Tools → Configurations → Quick Connect…
• Some applications only allow you to use a limited range of COM port numbers. If
the application does not allow you to use a COM port number assigned by
BlueSoleil, you will not be able to use BlueSoleil with your application.
