4) Wait several seconds until BlueSoleil reports the name of each device. 

5) If the device you want is not listed, make sure that the device is turned on and discoverable 
and try searching again. You have multiple options for starting another search: 

• 

If you start another search by double-clicking on the red ball or clicking My Bluetooth | My 
Device Inquiry or View | Refresh Devices, then the list of previously detected devices will not 
be cleared. 

• 

If you start a new search by pressing F5, then the list of previously detected devices will be 
cleared. 

NOTE: These are generic instructions for any type of Bluetooth enabled device. Refer to the 
instructions in Chapter 3, Bluetooth Profiles for specific details for the type of service you plan 
to use. 

Normally, a connection is initiated from the client. On the server side, start the service; on the 
client side, initiate the connection. 

2.4.1  Start the Service 
If you would like to use your computer as a server in a Bluetooth connection, you must first start 
(enable) the appropriate service(s) on your system. 

1) Access the Service Window. Click View | Service Window. 

2) If the icon for a service is highlighted (yellow), the service has already been started. If the icon 
is white, then you need to start the service in order to use it; right-click the icon. In the pop-up 
menu, select Start Service. The icon should now be highlighted (yellow). Serial Port icons will 
also report which COM port is assigned to them. 

NOTE: Icons will appear only for Bluetooth functions (profiles) which BlueSoleil supports in the 
Server device role. See the chart in Chapter 1.1, Bluetooth Functions. Depending on your system, 
multiple icons for Serial COM ports may appear. 

After you have started the service in BlueSoleil, now you are ready to initiate the connection 
from the remote device. For instructions, refer to the user documentation for the remote device. 

2.4.2  Initiate the Connection 
If you would like to use your computer as a client in a Bluetooth connection, make sure that you 
have started (enabled) the service on the remote device. Otherwise, BlueSoleil will not be able to 
discover the service and connect to it. For instructions, refer to the device’s user documentation.
