Bluetooth virtual COM

ports

Some application programs connect using a virtual COM port

(serial port) when making a Bluetooth connection. To make a

connection possible for such programs, you must fi rst set up

a virtual COM port on the Field PC. Once created, this virtual

port can be used like any other COM port. For example, you

can use a virtual COM port for programs that connect to a

GPS receiver. You can also use it to connect to a printer that is

enabled with Bluetooth technology.

When setting up a virtual COM port, you must specify if the

COM port is an outgoing COM port or an incoming COM

port.
