Configure the Headset Service
From the Notification area, at the far right of the taskbar, right-click the
Bluetooth icon, select Advanced Configuration > Local Services, and
then double-click the Headset service.
Set the common configuration properties of the service, and then click
OK.
Usage Example with a Bluetooth Telephone
From the Bluetooth phone, search for devices that offer the Headset Service, select the Headset
Service on this computer, and then select Connect.
Note:
Individual Bluetooth phone manufacturers may use different terminology to describe the
Headset Service, but the word audio and/or headset should be in the description - refer to the
documentation included with the Bluetooth phone for assistance.
If the Headset Service has Secure Connection enabled, a PIN code and Authorization will be
required to complete the connection.
When the phone successfully connects to the Headset Service:
In the Notification area, at the far right of the taskbar, the Bluetooth icon
will be a blue field with a green insert (if another Bluetooth connection
existed before this connection was established, the icon would have
already been this color).
A notification balloon will appear briefly above the Bluetooth icon with a
message similar to:
Bluetooth Connection Successful
Bluetooth device My Bluetooth Cell Phone is connected to the Headset
service on this computer
The Headset Service now monitors the phone and displays a notification balloon over the
Bluetooth icon in the Notification area, at the far right of the taskbar when an incoming call is
detected. Click the balloon to acknowledge the notification, and then, in the Incoming Call dialog
box, click the Accept button to accept the call.
The audio signal from the phone is re-routed to the audio output device (speakers or earphones)
on the computer, and the microphone on the computer provides the audio input for the phone. To
reject the incoming call, when the Incoming Call dialog box is displayed, click the Reject button.
Network Access
The Bluetooth Network Access service enables a remote Bluetooth device to access a Local Area
Network that is physically attached to this computer or allows a remote device to become part of
an ad hoc network provided by this computer.
After this computer has been configured to provide the Network Access service to other Bluetooth
devices, it will not be able to use the Bluetooth Network Access service provided by another
Bluetooth device without being re-configured. In other words, this computer cannot be both a
Bluetooth Network Access server and a Bluetooth Network Access client at the same time.
