Understand Bluetooth Connections - Nokia 5120 - Cell Phone - AMPS User Manual

• UNDERSTAND BLUETOOTH CONNECTIONS

Your PC's Bluetooth adapter includes connection management software used to manage the various types of Bluetooth connection
options. This software also allows you to customize how your PC communicates with other Bluetooth devices.
Bluetooth connection options
The Bluetooth connection options between your PC and other devices may include:
• COM port/serial port connection
• Dial-up networking (DUN) connection
• Fax connection
• Local area network (LAN) connection
• Transfer of files (FTP)
• Sending/receiving of business card (v.card format)
Virtual COM ports
Your Bluetooth adapter's connection manager software may install a "virtual" COM port for each of the communication options
listed above. Please make a note of the COM port number assigned to the various types of connections, as this information may
be vital when troubleshooting Bluetooth connection problems (should they occur).
Wireless modem drivers
Your Bluetooth adapter's connection manager software may install modem drivers for use with Microsoft Windows Dial-up
Networking (DUN). During the installation, a new Bluetooth modem device is added to your system.
Please use this device when creating DUN configuration for use with your phone. Performing the wireless modem setup using the
Nokia Bluetooth modem drivers is not necessary with your Bluetooth device and may cause interference with your existing
Bluetooth connection manager software.
Please refer to your Bluetooth device's documentation for more information on Bluetooth connections and DUN.
Establish a Bluetooth connection
The request for a Bluetooth connection is always initiated from the PC (not from the phone).
The connection management software from some manufacturers also allows you to initiate the correct type of Bluetooth
connection manually. Other manufacturer's connection management software may detect Dial-up networking or PC Suite's request
for a Bluetooth serial connection and initiate Bluetooth communications automatically.
Please refer to your Bluetooth device's documentation for more information on establishing a Bluetooth connection between your
PC and phone.
