for information purposes to let you know that a connection has been
established.
Example
Both Authentication and Authorization request notifications are
controlled by whether Secure Connection is enabled for an individual
service. An example of how notifications might work when a remote
device attempts to access a service on this computer, if all notifications
are enabled:
•
Authentication: a balloon notification (audio optional) appears to
prompt for a PIN code. If the PIN code does not match the code
entered on the remote device, the connection will not be allowed.
Once the remote device has been authenticated this notification will
not appear again, unless the paired relationship is broken and the
devices must re-pair.
•
Authorization: a balloon notification appears and/or a sound file
provides audio notification that a remote device is attempting to
access a Bluetooth service on this computer. Click the balloon to
proceed. A dialog box appears that offers the option of letting the
connection proceed this time only or to always allow this particular
remote device to use the service it is attempting to access.
•
Once a connection has been authorized, an additional visual and/or
audio notification may appear (if enabled). This notification is for
information only to inform the operator that a connection has been
established.
After two devices are paired (step 1, above), the authentication
notification will no longer appear when a connection is attempted.
If “Always allow…” is enabled during the authorization process
(step 2, above), the authorization notification will not appear on future
connection attempts. Connection notification (step 3, above) only
happens if it has been enabled on the Notifications tab of the individual
service being accessed.
Service Access Notification
“Notifications” lets you associate a sound (Windows *.wav file) and/or a
visual indication with access attempts by remote devices. A different
notification sound can be associated with each local Bluetooth service.
