D-Link DBT-120 [27/62] Information synchronization

The default location of your business card and the location where received items

are placed can be configured in the Bluetooth Configuration Panel.

To send, receive or exchange an object:

On the client, in the Folders panel of My Bluetooth Places, right-click the Inbox

icon of the remote device. Select an option from the pop-up menu. Business cards

are sent, received or exchanged without further intervention.

To send Calendar Items, Notes, and Messages, navigate to the folder that

contains the item you want to send, select the item, and then click Open.

Information Synchronization

The Information Synchronization service is used to synchronize information (e.g.,

a Personal Information Manager database) between a Bluetooth client and a

Bluetooth server.

Bluetooth Software supports synchronization with devices that support IrMC v1.1

and exchange the v2.1 vCard format.

Four data types are supported:

• Business cards

• Calendar items

• Email messages

• Notes

The first time Information Synchronization is used with a new application it may

take a few minutes to synchronize the database; the data from both devices must

be merged, duplicate entries deleted, and then the updated database copied back

to both devices.

Subsequent uses of Information Synchronization, for the same application, are

much faster— only the changes that have been made since the databases were

last synchronized must be exchanged.

Microsoft Outlook is the only Personal Information Manager supported in this

release of Bluetooth Software. Outlook permits duplicate entries, so all duplicates

may not be exchanged in the synchronization process.

Note: Only Outlook’s default contacts folder is synchronized. Items in sub-folders

are not synchronized. Items that are moved from the default folder to a sub-folder

will appear to have been deleted when the next synchronization takes place.

Use Information Synchronization

• On the client, in the Folders panel of My Bluetooth Places, select Entire

Bluetooth Neighborhood.

• In the right panel of Entire Bluetooth Neighborhood, right-click anywhere

except on a device name and select Refresh from the pop-up menu.
