area, at the far right of the taskbar. If the notification balloon is ignored, the connection request
will time out and fail.
• Notification only - this type of notification does not affect access in any way; it is solely for
information purposes to let you know that a connection has been established.
Example
: Both Authentication and Authorization request notifications are controlled by whether
Secure
Connection is enabled for an individual service. An example of how notifications might
work when a remote
device attempts to access a service on this computer, if all notifications are
enabled:
• Authentication - a balloon notification (audio optional) prompts you for a PIN code. If the PIN code
does not match the code entered on the remote device, the connection will not be allowed. After
the
remote device has been authenticated this notification will not appear again, unless the paired
relationship is broken. If the paired relationship is broken, the devices must re-pair.
• Authorization - a balloon notification is displayed and/or a sound file provides audio notification
that a remote device is attempting to access a Bluetooth service on this computer. Click the
balloon to
proceed. A dialog box prompts you to enable the connection only once, or to allow
this device to use
the service every time.
• After a connection has been authorized, an additional visual and/or audio notification may
be displayed (if enabled). This notification is for information only to inform the operator that a
connection has been established.
