1.2 Bluetooth basics

Bluetoothisastandardizedtechnologyforthewirelesstransmission of data using radio systems in the frequency range of 2.4 GHz(2.402...2.480GHz).Thisfrequencyrangecanbeusedaroundtheworldwithoutalicense.Bluetoothdevicesuselow-powertransceiversforshort-rangetransmissionofdata.BTdevicesmaycommunicatewitheachotherwhentheyarewithintherangeoftransmission:

BT Class Minimum output power Maximum output power Range of transmission

1 1mW 100mW 100meters

2 0.25mW 2.5mW 10meters

3 n/a 1mW 1meter

The BT Option is a Class 2 device with a range of 10 meters.Pleasenotethattherangeisatheoreticalvalue.Objectsbetweendevicesmayreducethetransmissionrange(especiallythickwalls,metalobjects,etc.).Furthermore,devicesneedtobeinthereceivingrange,i.e.youmayconnectaClass1device(range100meters)toaclass2device(range10meters)butthedistanceisthenlimitedtothereceivingrangeofthelowerpowereddevice(itthiscaseto10meters).

The2.4GHzbandisacommonlyusedtransmissionfrequency(e.g.forwirelessphones,babyphones,wirelessaudioandvideotransceivers,wirelessLANadapters,etc.).Topreventinterferencewithsuchdevices,Bluetoothdividesitsbandwidth(2.402...2.480GHz)into79channelsandcontinuouslyswitchesbetweenthem.Thisprocedureiscalled“frequency hopping”andtakesplaceupto1600timespersecond.

TheveryfirstofficialimplementationoftheBluetoothstandardwasversion1.0.Unfortunately,version1.0wasnotverystableandmanyearlyusershadalotoftroublewhensettingupBTconnections.Versions1.1and1.2remediedthemajorityoftheseproblemsandprovedtobestable.MostofthecurrentlyavailableBTdevicessupportBluetooth 1.2andsodoestheBTOption.Laterimplementationssuchasthe2.0orhigherstandardmainlyboostthetransmissionspeedwhichisnotanissueformanyusersastypicalBTapplicationsdonotneedtotransferhugeamountsofdata.

AllBTdeviceshaveauniqueidentificationcodethatcannotbechanged,namelytheBT device address.TheBTdeviceaddressisatwelve-digithexadecimalfigure,whichisrepresentedas“01:23:45:67:89:AB”.Sincethedeviceaddressisextremelyunmanageablefornormaluse,allBTdevicesalsohaveanamewhich,inmanycases,canbeeditedbytheuser.ThedeviceaddressandnameofaBTdevicecan(inadditiontootherdevicedata,suchassupportedprofiles,etc.)berequestedbyotherBTdevices.

1.3 Bluetooth security features

LikeallradiotransmissionsBluetoothwouldbeinherentlyinsecurewithoutprovidingadditionalsecurityfeatures.Infact,Bluetoothisconsideredtobeverysafeassumingappropriateconfigurationofitsbuilt-insecurityoptions.Theseinclude:

– Visibility option:ManyBTdevicesmaybemadeinvisibletootherBTdevices.Infact,aBTdeviceneedstobevisibleonlyupontheinitialsetup(theso-called“pairing”)whenitneedstobeseenbytheotherdevice.Oncepairinghastakenplace,therespectivedataisstoredlocallyinbothdevicesandfurthercommunicationcantakeplacewithoutrequiringvisibilityasbothdevicesalreadyknoweachotherandhaveestablishedatrustedrelationship.ItisstronglyrecommendedtomakeaBTdeviceinvisibleexceptwhenvisibilityisrequired,thushidingitsaddressfromotherunits.ThatiswhythedefaultsettingoftheBToptionis“Invisible”.

– PIN codeandAuthentication:Usually,BTdevicesrequiretoexchangeaPINcodebeforepairingcantakeplace.InmostcasesthePINcodesetatthefactorycanbechangedbytheuser.NotethatthePINcodeofbothunitsmustmatch,otherwisenocommunicationwillbepossible.AuthenticationistheprocessofexchangingPINcodes.Withauthenticationenabled(thisistheBTOption’sthefactorysetting),aBTdevicerequiresotherBTdevicestosendtheirPINcodebeforegrantingcommunication.

– Encryption: For secure transmission, thedataexchangedbetweenBTdevicesmaybeencrypted. Ifencryptionisactive,otherBTdevicesmaypossiblymonitorthedatabuttheycannotuseit.NotethatencryptionrequiresaPINcode(whichisusedforencryption).

1.4 Bluetooth services and profiles

EveryBTdevicehasaparticularscopeofuse(e.g.acellularphoneoraBTprinter).BTprofilesreflecttheusecasesofadevice(e.g.wirelesstelephonyorwirelessprinting).Forinstance,thereareprofilesforprintingorforfiletransferviaFTP.Uponpairing,aBTdevicecommunicatesitsprofilesandtheappropriateservices.Theexchangeofdataispossibleonlyifatleastonematchingprofile/serviceisavailableandactivatedonbothunits.TheBTOptionsupportsthe“Serial Port Profile”(SPP)offeringservicesforexchangingdataviaaserialRS232Cinterface(whichisthenredirectedtoBluetooth).TheactualnamingoftheSerialPortProfiledependsonthemanufacturerandthedevice,forMettler-Toledodevicesitiscalled“SPPdata”.PleasenotethatsomeBTdevicesrequireauthenticationviaaPINcodebeforecommunicatingtheservicesavailablefromthem.

1.5 Client vs. Server (communication roles)

ForcommunicationaBTdevicemayeitheractas“Client”(alsocalled“Master”)or“Server”(alsocalled“Slave”).InBTterminology,aclientistheactivepart,i.e.theonethatsearchesforotherdevices,determinestheservicestobeusedandactivelymanagesthecommunication.Theserverhasapassiverole,it justcommunicatesitspresenceanditsbuilt-inservices,i.e.theserverwaitsfortherequestsreceivedfromaclientandanswersthem.Assoonasaconnectionisactive,theservercannotansweranyotherconnectionrequests.For every connection the BT Option may be configured to be the client or the server.ThefollowingfigureshowsatypicalconfigurationwheretheBToptionistheclientofaprinterconnectionandtheserverofahostconnection:

4. This step is required only if the BT Option acts as the client (master) for the current connection:Querytheservicesavailablefromtheselecteddeviceandchoosetheserviceforserialtransmissionofdata(madeavailablebythetheBT Serial Port Profile).Notethatthenamingofthisservicedependsonthedevice(e.g.forsomeMettler-Toledoperipheralsitiscalled“SPPdata”).Ifthisserviceisnotavail-ableyoucannotconnecttothatdevice.NotethatsomeBTdevicesmayneedtoknowthePINcodeoftheBTOptionbeforedisplayingtheirservices,inthiscaseperformstep5first.

5. This step is required only if the BT Option acts as the client (master) for the current connection:Proceedto“pairing”(establishingatrustedrelationshipbetweenthedevices)byenteringthePIN code.NotethattheBTOptionandtheperipheraldevicemustusethesamePINcode.

6. Checktheconnection,thencarryoutfurtheradjustments,asneeded.
