The default value of 0x0 would accept all remotes. For non-zero values, each bit set in the parameter would filter the device address corresponding to that bit, e.= g. 0x1 would filter address 0x0, 0x80000000 would filter address 0x1f, etc. Cheers, - Udo --Sig_/Mka7ID8Tb7CjMiIr9Gh3a7o Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAknLzWIACgkQnhRzXSM7nSnkcQCbBeWKW2FNgGLQipKL13UmmDOv 7nQAni1M9XaV544fhJb1D/1CbaYndy2J =hCXk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/Mka7ID8Tb7CjMiIr9Gh3a7o--
