Service discovery
Before trying to establish a link to a remote device, it may be useful to know which services the device facilitates. To find out, you can carry out service discovery.
Double-click the remote device in the main window list view, for instance the one named “Bluetooth Client Device”:
When the service discovery has been carried out, the list view will show the services that the remote device supports:
In some cases, it may not be possible to carry out service discovery. There could be a number of reasons for this: The remote user may have set up his device to reject link establishment attempts (cf. “Trust”), the distance between the two devices may be too far, etc. If service discovery (or any other activity) is not carried out successfully, a message box will let you know what went wrong.
