    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!

    certificates in the Windows Cert ificate Store, and allows you to import, delete, and view these certificates. 
    Workabout Pro4 checks that the ce rtificate has been digitally signed by a certification  authority that the Worka-
    bout Pro4 explicitly trusts. Thi s option is used in conjunction  with 802.1x authentication to enhance Workabout 
    Pro4 security.
    • In the  Control Panel , choose the Certificates icon.
    Your Workabout Pro4 has certificates preinstalled in the comput er. My Certificates  is the repository for the 
    personal certificate store on the device,  Other Authorities is the repository for the int ermediate certificate store, 
    and  Trusted Authorities  is the repository for the Trus ted Root certificate store.  
    						
    							Configuration 3 - 17
    You can import or remove certificates, and view certificate inf ormation for any listing, including names, dates, 
    serial numbers, etc.
    For a detailed description about  Certificate setup for both the server and client-side devices (Workabout Pro4 
    Hand-Held Computers), refe r to the following web site:

    Data Transfer between Workabout Pro4 and a PC 
    Data transfer options vary slight ly depending on the type of operating system installed in your PC. 
    For Windows XP SP2 operating systems or earlier, Microsoft
    ® ActiveSync® connectivity software can be used 
    to connect your Workabout Pro4 to PCs. 
    If the Windows Vista
    ®, Windows 7 or later, operating system is installed in your PC,  ActiveSync is not required 
    to transfer data between your  Workabout Pro4 and your PC.
    By using a single bay U SB cradle with your Workabout Pro4, you can connect to a PC with a cable to:
    • View Workabout Pro4 file s from Windows Explorer.
    • Drag and drop files between the W orkabout Pro4 and the PC in the same way that you would between 
    PC drives.
    • Back up Workabout Pro4 files to  the PC, restore them from the PC to the hand-held again, etc.
    Using Microsoft ActiveSync
    To install ActiveSync, follow the step-by-step instructions provided with the program’s setup wizard. For details, 
    go to the following web site and  type the name into the search box: 
    http://www.microsoft.com/d ownloads/en/default.aspx 
    NOTEIf you use a serial port to conn ect devices like the Workabout  Pro4 to your desktop computer, the 
    connection may not succeed becau se ActiveSync has trouble connecting at non-default baud 
    rates.
    To work around this problem, set the ActiveSync baud rate on th e desktop to use the same baud 
    rate as the device. You can set t he baud rate by editing the registry on the desktop host com-
    puter, as detailed in the steps  outlined at the following website:
