Bluetooth Configuration
Bluetooth is a wireless radio communication standard designed for use over short ranges (within 10 m). This 
chapter describes how to use the Bluetooth interface on the AG-STAR.
4.1
Bluetooth Wireless Technology on the AG-STAR receiver
Bluetooth wireless technology is configured on the AG-STAR’s internal COM2 port. After your computer is 
configured for Bluetooth operation, use HyperTerminal or NovAtel Connect to communicate through COM2. 
To log data over the Bluetooth port, specify COM2 as the output port (e.g. 
log com2 bestposa ontime 1
).

1. Power on the AG-STAR.
2. On the computer, double-click the Bluetooth icon in the notification area, see Figure 9, Bluetooth Icon
The Bluetooth Devices window opens, see Figure 10 on page 28.
