[Bluez-users] Problem making bluetooth device locatable

[Santhosh N]

Hi All,

I have a bluetooth USB dongle connected to our embedded device. I am 
having problem in making my embedded device locatable by other devices. I 
am able to scan the list of devices in the vicinity from my device. I have 
made sure that PSCAN and ISCAN are enabled. Inspite of that my embedded 
device is not locatable by other devices.

The output of "hciconfig" is:
hci0:   Type: USB
         BD Address: 00:02:72:01:C3:A0 ACL MTU: 192:8 SCO MTU: 64:8
         UP RUNNING PSCAN ISCAN
         RX bytes:151 acl:0 sco:0 events:15 errors:0
         TX bytes:42 acl:0 sco:0 commands:10 errors:0

Please let me know, how can I proceed further in fixing this issue. I am 
using linux kernel 2.6.20 and bluez-libs/utils 3.9.

Thanks in advance,
-- 
N Santhosh

Hi Santhosh,

you should add a line to hcid.conf in the device block:

  device {
      ...
      discoverto 0;
      ...
       }

This disables the timer that normally shuts the window
allowing for external discovery. Make "man hcid.conf"
to learn more.

Regards,    Mats E A
