Frontline® X240
is capable of capturing and demodulating all RF channels and packet
types defined in all released Bluetooth specifications and beyond. The user is not required to
specify the addresses of the devices to be captured or their roles (master or slave) during
the connection lifetime. Prior to capturing the data the user does not need to enter any
information (PIN, OOB, long term key, link key) used to encrypt or decrypt data. X240
provides live capture of all 79 Classic Bluetooth channels or 40 Bluetooth low energy
channels storing data for both live and post-capture analysis. This quick start guide provides
sufficient information to begin data capture. Detailed hardware and software information is
contained in the Wireless Protocol Suite Hardware and Software User Manual. The manual
is available on FTE.com.
