Template:FMB Blue-tooth settings

General functionality

General functionality configures Blue-tooth to work in slave mode. This mode allows any external device to connect to FMB1YX.
Parameter BT Radio allows enabling or disabling Blue-tooth. There are three different settings:

• Disabled – Blue-tooth functionality will be disabled.
• Enable (hidden) – Blue-tooth functionality will be enabled, external devices will be able to connect to FMB1YX, but no devices will be able to detect it.
• Enable (visible) – Blue-tooth functionality will be enabled and any external device will be able to detect and connect to FMB1YX.
  Local Name parameter lets user declare a visible name of FMB1YX to external devices.
  Local PIN parameter lets user configure Blue-tooth PIN of FMB1YX device.
  

FMB1YX Blue-tooth has several different Security Modes:

• PIN only – only Local PIN will be reacquired to complete connection to FMB1YX.
• PIN + MAC list – PIN and Authorized Devices MAC List will be checked against to allow connection to FMB1YX. If the external device MAC ID is in the list and correct Local PIN is entered then connection will be established, otherwise FMB1YX will reject connection.
• MAC list only – only Authorized Devices MAC List will be checked when trying to connect to FMB1YX. If external device MAC ID is in the list then connection will be established, otherwise FMB1YX will reject connection.
• None – neither Local PIN nor Authorized Device MAC List will be checked.

Auto connection functionality configures FMB1YX as master device, which allows connecting FMB1YX to an external device. FMB1YX currently supports these modes:

• None – disables auto connection functionality.
• Hands Free or OBDII – FMB1YX starts searching for an external hands free headset. If FMB1YX finds a device which matches user defined External MAC or External Name then FMB1YX will try to pair with that external device. If the external device asks for PIN then FMB1YX will send user defined External PIN. After successfully pairing FMB1YX will connect to paired device.
• Data Link – BT Data link mode is enabled by Configurator Data Link parameter: when Data Link is configured and FMB has a link with the server, paired device can send messages via Blue-tooth SPP profile directly to the server. Messages will be encoded by codec12.

FMB1YX supports ONE connection at a time. FMB1YX can see up to 10 available devices. If there are more than 10 devices, the list may change with each new scan.

External Name parameter works as a substring, which allows user to enter a part of the full external device name. For example, if external device name is "HandsFreeHeadset" and user enters "HandsFree" in External Name parameter window, then FMB1YX will be allowed to connect to an external device named "HandsFreeHeadset".
