Naming your local device
Before you start communicating with remote users, you should select the name that you want your device to present itself with when discovered by remote devices. To do so:
- On the Bluetooth menu, click Bluetooth Neighborhood Properties:
The following dialog box opens:
- At the top of the dialog box, click the tab Settings.
- In the item Bluetooth Device Name, type the name you want your device to present itself with when discovered by devices, for instance “Adam”:
- Click OK.
Other Bluetooth devices discovering your device will now see it as “Adam”.
For information on the item Bluetooth Device Class in the dialog box shown above, see the section “Bluetooth Neighborhood properties” – “Settings”.
