Overview of Bluetooth virtual COM ports

Some programs can connect only though a serial (COM) port. This can be true even if the device itself is
Bluetooth-enabled. To make it possible for such programs to use a Bluetooth connection, you must set up a
virtual COM port. Once created, this virtual port can be used like any other COM port. You can use a virtual
COM port for programs that, for example, or to connect to a Bluetooth-enabled printer.
Here are some examples of how to use incoming and outgoing virtual COM ports.

Outgoing COM port

You have a program on your device that cannot use Bluetooth directly but can print to a serial (COM) port.
You can create a Bluetooth partnership with a Bluetooth-enabled printer, and then set up an outgoing COM
port (for example, COM 1). The program can then send print data to COM 1, which reaches the Bluetooth-
enabled printer.

Set up an outgoing Bluetooth COM port

The New Outgoing Port menu command is available only if one or more Bluetooth-connected devices
support serial (COM) connections.
Make sure that your device is currently connected to the other device via Bluetooth.
