Introduction
This article describes how to install and configure a Bluetooth device in Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2).
Note If you install a Bluetooth adapter that is not supported in Windows XP SP2, follow the recommendations that
the Bluetooth adapter's manufacturer provides.
Installing a Bluetooth adapter that is on the list of supported adapters for Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2
(SP2) is only a matter of connecting the device. No configuration is needed before you make the connection.
When you install a supported Bluetooth adapter in Windows XP SP2, the adapter becomes active together with the
following Microsoft components:
• Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator
This component enumerates Bluetooth devices and capabilities.
• Bluetooth Device (Personal Area Network)
This driver supports Personal Area Network (PAN) connections between devices.
• Bluetooth Device (RFCOMM Protocol Transport Driver Interface [TDI])
This component supports dial-up networking (DUN). It also supports other types of connections between
devices.
• Bluetooth Support Service (BthServ)
This service maintains and updates device pairing information. It also performs other functions that are
related to Bluetooth features.
These components are available in Device Manager after you install a Bluetooth adapter. Other drivers and
components are also installed.
1. Configuration and devices
You can use the Bluetooth Devices item in Control Panel to configure Bluetooth settings. By using Bluetooth
Devices, you can do one or more of the following:
• Add or remove a device.
• View the properties of a device.
• Change your Bluetooth options.
• Add a COM port.
In Bluetooth Devices, the Devices tab shows all the devices that are currently configured on your computer. By
using the Devices tab, you can add a device, remove a device, or view the properties of a device.

2. Device properties
When you view the properties of a Bluetooth device, you see the following information:
• The device type
• The hardware address of the Bluetooth adapter
• The date and time of the last connection
• Information about whether a passkey is used for pairing with the device
You can also change the name that Windows uses for the device. This change also affects the name that is used by
the Bluetooth File Transfer Wizard and by Add Modem.
The Services tab shows information about the services that the device supports. For example, when a Bluetooth
phone or a personal digital assistant (PDA) is connected to your computer, this tab may show COM ports that are
available for synchronization. This tab may also show Internet dial-up networking connections. You can also select
the services that you want to use.
3. Options
The Options tab in Bluetooth Devices provides options that control how devices discover and connect to your
computer. The main option is Turn discovery on. This option lets devices discover your computer so that you can
make a connection.
Other options on this tab include the following:
• Allow Bluetooth devices to connect to this computer
This check box controls whether any devices can connect to your computer. If this check box is cleared, no
devices can connect to your computer.
• Alert me when a new Bluetooth device wants to connect
This option controls whether you receive notification when a device tries to connect to your computer. If this
check box is cleared, you do not receive notification.
Other options on the Options tab let you turn on or turn off the Bluetooth icon in the notification area and restore
default settings.
4. Discovery
Typically, your Bluetooth-enabled computer will discover other devices. Therefore, you only have to turn on the
Turn discovery on option when your computer acts as a device. For example, you might want to turn on this
option when your computer is connected to another computer by a Personal Area Network (PAN). When computers
are connected by a PAN, one of the computers must have discovery turned on.
By default, discovery is not turned on in Windows XP SP2, because a discoverable Bluetooth device may be less
secure than a device that is not discoverable. We recommend that you keep the Turn discovery on check box
cleared unless you want another Bluetooth device to discover the computer. When the connection is complete, the
Add Device Wizard turns off discovery automatically.

5. Adding a COM port
You can add an incoming port that receives a connection from a Bluetooth device, or you can add an outgoing port
that makes a connection to a Bluetooth device. To connect to a Bluetooth device using a COM port, follow these
steps:
1. Use the port configuration options in Device Manager to set the COM port configuration.
For the correct data rate and for other settings, see the documentation for the program that you want to
use over the connection.
2. Set the COM port in the program to the port number that is specified on the last page of the Add Bluetooth
Device Wizard.
This port number is also listed on the COM Ports tab in Bluetooth Devices.
Bluetooth devices that use a COM port require special programs on your computer. These programs are typically
included with the device. You can also obtain these programs from the device manufacturers. To set up your
program to use a COM port, follow the instructions in the program documentation.
6. Hardware
The Hardware tab in Bluetooth Devices lists the Bluetooth devices that are installed on your computer. This is the
same list that is shown in the Bluetooth Radios category in Device Manager. When you select a device in the list and
then click Properties, you see the same device properties as you would see in Device Manager.

7. Adding a device
When you add a Bluetooth device to your computer, address information is exchanged. Sometimes, access keys
are also exchanged. This process is known as pairing or bonding the two devices. When you add a device, one of
the devices must be discoverable. Some devices let you turn discovery on and off, and others are always
discoverable. For example, some mouse devices are always discoverable.
When you use Bluetooth to connect two computers, the computer that is added as a device must have discovery
turned on. You can turn on discovery by using the Options tab in Bluetooth Devices.
Steps to take on the computer
To add a device, follow these steps on your computer:
1. In Bluetooth Settings, click Add.
2. In the Add Bluetooth Device Wizard, click to select the My device is set up and ready to be found check box, and then
click Next.
Note You cannot click Next until you click to select the My device is set up and ready to be found box. A device that has
discovery turned off cannot be detected during a search.
When you click Next, your computer searches for any discoverable devices that are in range. When the search
is complete, the devices appear in the wizard.
3. Select a device to add, and then click Next.
After you select the device to add, you can enter a passkey for the device. A passkey is a code that is used to
control access to a device. Using a passkey may help improve the security of your connection. However, the device
that you add may not require a passkey.
When you enter the passkey, your computer tries to connect to the device to verify the passkey. When you connect
to another computer, you receive a message that the computers are trying to connect.
Steps to take on the device
When you have completed the steps on your computer, enter the passkey on the Bluetooth device. If the device
is another computer, this computer displays a message that indicates that you are requesting a connection. Follow
these steps on the computer that you are adding as a Bluetooth device:
1. Click in the message that indicates that you are requesting a connection.
The Add Bluetooth Device Wizard starts and provides a field for entering the passkey.
2. Enter the passkey. You may also choose to have a passkey generated for you.
When the passkey is verified, the connection is complete. The device is now visible on your computer. If the device
is another computer, its computer name is visible on the first computer.
On the last page of the Add Bluetooth Device Wizard, you can turn discovery off on the computer that you add as
a device. By default, the option to turn discovery off is selected so that the computer does not remain discoverable
at all times.
After a device is added
After a device is added, it appears in Bluetooth Devices. You can view the device properties to examine the services
provided, to change the name of the device, or to gather other information. You can also establish connections.

8. Joining a Personal Area Network
Personal Area Networking (PAN) provides ad hoc networking between Bluetooth devices. All devices that you want
to network must support PAN to create a PAN network. To join a PAN network, you can use any one of the following
methods:
• Click the Join a Personal Area Network option in the Bluetooth taskbar icon menu.
• Double-click the Bluetooth Network Connection icon in the Network Connections item in Control Panel.
• Click View Bluetooth network devices in the Network Tasks pane in Network Connections.
Each of these methods opens the Bluetooth Personal Area Network Devices dialog box. This dialog box shows
a list of devices that you can connect to. You can also add or remove devices from this list by using the options at
the bottom of the dialog box.
To make a connection, click the device that you want to connect to, and then click Connect. When the connection
is complete, TCP/IP networking is available between your computer and the other device. (If you click a device that
you are already connected to, the Connect button becomes a Disconnect button.)
Note When both PAN devices in a connection are Windows XP-based computers, the connection is a point-to-point
connection, and you cannot use one computer to act as a router to a local area network (LAN) or to the Internet.
To do this, you need a network access point (NAP).
Windows uses Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) to assign addresses to the computers in an ad hoc network.
When APIPA is used, the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is not needed. To view the APIPA address,
type ipconfig at a command prompt, and then press ENTER. You receive output that is similar to the following:
Ethernet adapter Bluetooth Network Connection:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
Autoconfiguration IPAddress. . . : 169.254.143.66
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.0.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . :
The General tab on the Status dialog box shows the connection speed and the packet transmission information
for the connection. The Support tab is the same as for other network connections. By using the Support tab, you
can view information about IP addressing information, obtain details about the connection, or repair the
connection.

After you select a device, you can configure the device by using Phone and Modem Options. To connect to the
Internet, you can create a new connection in the Network Connections folder.
Notes on modem support
• Windows XP automatically generates a passkey for the connection between the mobile phone and your
computer. You can use this passkey or enter one of your own. Passkeys can have up to 16 characters. The
passkey must be entered within 30 seconds, or authentication may not succeed.
• Some mobile phones already have a passkey. If your phone has a passkey, enter the passkey in the
Bluetooth Connection Wizard.
• Bluetooth is not a secure wireless technology. Your data may be visible to other devices or computers that
are in range.
• If your mobile phone does not support dial-up networking, you cannot install the phone by using the Add
Hardware Wizard. To install the phone, use Bluetooth Devices.
• When a mobile phone is connected as a modem, it appears in Device Manager as a modem.
10. Adding a printer
Windows XP SP2 supports Bluetooth printers. You can use the Add Printer Wizard to access printer features. To
start the Add Printer Wizard, click Start, click Printers and Faxes, and then click Add a printer.
When you select A Bluetooth printer in the Add Printer Wizard, your computer searches for Bluetooth printers.
When your computer locates a printer, you can select it to install. To install the printer, you have to install drivers
for the printer, just as you do for any other type of printer.
When the printer is installed, the printer port appears as a Bluetooth virtual printer port on the Ports tab of the
printer's Properties dialog box.
