3 - 12 Workabout Pro4 (Windows Embedded CE 6.0) User Guide Servers When a remote Bluetooth device initiates a Bluetooth connection to the Workabout P ro4, the remote device is considered the Bluetooth master and the hand-held, the Bluetooth slave. In order for the remote device to connect to the hand-held, the Workabout Pro4 must offer a servi ce in the form of a server. The Servers tab allows these services to be enabled and configured. There are t hree server services available: Serial, Scanner and OBEX OPP . Serial server enables the Serial Port P rofile server; a Serial Port can be selected from t he drop-down menu. You can assign either a BSP or a COM prefix from the drop-down menu. BSP (Bluetooth Serial Port) was created by Microsoft to allow Bluetooth to have its own serial prefix in order to free up virtual COM prefixes as these are limited and are widely used. Scanner server enables a Serial Port Pro file server and then relays it to the Scanner Service (SCS). This is used for Bluetooth barcode scanners that operate in client mode. SCS opens the se rver port and handles the scanner input. OBEX OPP server enables the Object Push Profile server. A warm reset mu st be performed on the Workabout Pro4 after a change is made to this option. The OPP Server allo ws other Bluetooth devices to send files to this device. • Tap on the check box to activate the server. Mode NOTE Even after a Serial Port Profile server is created, an applicat ion must open the created port before a remote device can connect.
Configuration 3 - 13 Tu r n o n Bluetooth activates the Bluetooth radio. Discoverable determines whether the Workabout Pro4 is visible or invisible to other devices. Printer Port allows you to assign and enable a virtual outgoing COM port selected from the drop-down menu to communicate with a paired Bluetooth printer. Keep in mind that when a port is chosen, the printer must be on and connected to the c hosen port for a remote device to be able to connect. • Select a port within the Printer Port drop-down list, e.g. BSP1: •Check the Printer Port check box. • Open the Device tab and tap on Scan. • Tap-and-hold each Bluetooth Printer device entry and then select Pair, key-in the Pass code (if needed) and then tap Done. DO NOT select any services! • Close the Bluetooth Manager. • Select the Bluetooth device to prin t to — you will need to ke y-in (or programmatically raise) the following key sequence [CTRL] [ALT] [F1]. • You can now select the Bluetooth device to which y ou wish to print.
