The first screen that displays shows the current state of the adapter’s settings.
If any settings have been modified by the user following the instructions above, then this list will differ from the default (factory) settings
Selecting option 2 from this menu shows the original factory settings for the product (if viewing for the first time). The one item that will be different for each individual product will be the local device setting. This setting is unique for each individual Bluetooth device in existence and cannot be changed.
Selecting option 3 from this “Settings” menu allows the current user settings to be used to update the “factory” settings, providing some level of protection from losing application configuration settings during a device reset when the reset button is activated.
A warning message will appear to ask the user to be sure that the default settings should be changed. This is not something you really want to do unless you’re sure you have the settings as you want them and are sure you can remember them, as there is no way back from here…
Selecting option 4 from the “Settings” menu above allows the user to restore the device to its default settings. Be sure to take a note of, or print these settings, as you will need to ensure that the next time you attempt to communicate with your Adapter you use these new settings. Remember that the original factory settings may have been updated using the previous menu.
4.2.7. Disabling Interactive Menu
Some RS232 devices (GPS devices for example) emit a continuous stream of data regardless of whether a cable is connected. When no Bluetooth connection exists, this data can actually appear as commands to the menu and change settings that render the Adapter inoperable. Disabling the menu, stops the Adapter being unwontedly re- configured in this manner.
Selecting option 5 from the main menu displays the following Disable Interactive menu.
Selecting ‘y’ or ‘Y’ from this menu means that no further interaction with the menu will be possible until the device has been completely reset to it’s factory defaults by performing a “long” reset from the reset button.
