4.3 BLUETOOTH EXCHANGE FOLDER This is the highest-level directory on this computer to which a remote Bluetooth device has access. Devices that have been granted access to this computer’s Bluetooth Exchange Folder also have access to all sub-folders contained within that folder and all files in those subfolders. NOTE: The Bluetooth Exchange Folder is shared by the PIM Item Transfer and the File Transfer services and can be configured from the Properties page of either of those services.
4.5.2 General Configuration All of the built-in Bluetooth applications allow you to rename the application and to require a secure connection when using the application.
4.5.4 Bluetooth Serial Port Overview The Bluetooth Serial Port application allows this computer to establish a wireless serial connection with a remote Bluetooth device. The applications on both this computer and the remote device must be configured to send and receive data to and from the respective communications port (COM port) assigned to the Bluetooth serial port. The wireless serial connection may then be used by the applications as though a physical serial cable connected the devices.

4.5.9 Network Access Overview The Bluetooth Network Access application makes it possible for this computer: To connect to a Local Area Network via a physical connection on a remote Bluetooth device. or To connect to an ad hoc network provided by a remote Bluetooth device. The type of network connection that is available is determined by the configuration of the remote Bluetooth device.
4.5.10 PIM Synchronization Overview The PIM Synchronization Application is used to synchronize the Personal Information Manager (PIM) database of this computer with the PIM database of a remote Bluetooth device. The supported PIMs are: Microsoft Outlook Microsoft Outlook Express Lotus Notes. The supported data types are: Business cards Calendar items Email (with or without attachments) Notes.
Synchronize Lotus Notes-this item type will be synced with its matching entry in Lotus Notes, regardless of the PIM that contains this entry on the remote device. If a matching Notes entry does not exist, it will be created. NOTE: All choices are not available for all items. For example, “Note” items can only be synchronized in Microsoft Outlook, therefore Lotus Notes and Outlook Express do not appear as options in the “Notes” item shortcut menu.
new name. Enable or disable secure connection. To enable secure connection, place a checkmark in the box. How your business card is handled when it is requested by a remote device. The Send My Business Card options are: Choose a business card as needed-each time a remote device requests your business card you must select a card from your PIM. If you ignore the request the remote device will receive a timeout notice.
4.5.12 Printer Overview The Bluetooth Printer application allows this computer to use a Bluetooth printer. Once a Bluetooth printer has been properly installed it can be used from this computer in the same way as any other printer would be. Configure The Bluetooth Configuration Panel > Client Applications > Printer > General tab provides options to configure: The application name—to change it, highlight the existing name and enter the new name. Enable or disable secure connection.
4.6.1 Notifications Overview There are three types of notification: Authentication request, also called a PIN code request—this notification appears automatically in a balloon over the Windows system tray if a Personal Identification Code is required before a connection can proceed. An audio file can also be associated with the notification. Authorization request, also called a connection request—this type of notification can be visual, audio, or both.
To preview the sound file, click the play ( ) button. 4. Click OK to close the service's property dialog box. 4.6.2 Audio Gateway The Bluetooth Audio Gateway service allows this computer to use a remote Bluetooth device’s microphone and speakers as this computer’s input and output devices. For example, if this computer has voice recognition capabilities, a Bluetooth headset might be used as the audio input device.
4.6.4 Dial-up Networking Service The Bluetooth Dial-up Networking service makes it possible for a remote Bluetooth device to use a modem that is physically connected to this computer. The remote device can then access the Internet or log on to a remote network. Configure the Dial-up Networking service: From the Windows system tray, right-click the Bluetooth icon, select Advanced Configuration > Local Services, and then double-click the Dial-up Networking service.
