hi, i want to ask a few questions
1. is nokia digital pen (bluetooth pen) have a standarized service id?
2. and do all the nokia bluetooth pen have the same id? if so, what is the id?

i need the id to use it directly in the server so that it automatically connect just to the bluetooth pen everytime i start the application.
can it? or i may be miss something?

i'll receive any answer even not the best one.

thanks for the help. i really need the answer quickly since it almost the deadline of my project. thx again.

Hi,
could you please describe what you are trying to do in more detail?

Are you developing an Internet server application using the Anoto SDK or are you trying to communicate with the pen from a phone application?

hi magnus,

i'm trying to communicate with the pen from a phone application. i want my application can catch(intercept) the image (in binary form) which is sent from the pen (before/after the image goes to inbox) and save the binary form of that image. but first of all i want that everytime i start my application (which is on the phone), it (the phone) directly connect to the pen.

i have read BTObex example. the server side is the side which is act as a receiver side. i think that all i have to do is change the server side of the example so that it can act/perform as the way i hope.

to connect directly to the pen every time it started need the bluetooth address of the pen. if all the pen have the same address/service id, all i have to do is to change the server to connect directly to the pen (not advertise it services). but if every pen have it's own id, do i have another way?

also, do you know how to catch the image to the application and save it's binary form?

thx for the help

Hi,
The pen always initiates the Bluetooth connection so you can not connect to it from your application. The GIF file is created in the pen.

I am quite certain that you can catch the GIF file and parse it to your application. It is possible to catch objects before the inbox and you can also create recognisers for file types. Not sure if you can override the default GIF association though. I believe there are examples and documentation of this somewhere on the Forum.

What do you mean with "binary form"?

hi,

The pen always initiates the Bluetooth connection so you can not connect to it from your application, ----> eventhough we know the address of the bluetooth?

binary form is the bytes that we received.

have you ever read the bluetooth obex example from symbian sdk documentation? from the example, the receiver side always advertise its address and services whenever it active. i want to know how can i make sure that the pen is connected to my apps?

can i know the bluetooth address? if can, how?

btw, about the example, if you found it, please tell me.

thank you very much.
