BTPIN-QT(1)

NAME
btpin-qt - graphical Bluetooth PIN Client

SYNOPSIS
btpin-qt [-a address] [-d device] [-l len] [-p pin] [-s path]

DESCRIPTION
The btpin-qt program is used to interactively respond to PIN requests from the bthcid(8) daemon for the purposes of pairing Bluetooth devices. When started, btpin-qt will sleep, and when requests are received, will display a dialog for the user to enter or generate a PIN.

The options are as follows:

-a address
    Only respond to requests from the remote device address. The address can be specified as BD_ADDR or a name. If a name was specified, the btpin-qt utility attempts to resolve the name via bt_gethostbyname(3).

-d device
    Only respond to request from the local device address. The device can be specified by BD_ADDR or device name.

-l len
    Set the default length of random PIN. The default length is 4.

-p pin
    The default PIN to display. This PIN may be up to 16 bytes in length, and if no default is given, a random PIN will be displayed each time.

-s path
    Specify path to the control socket. The default path is /var/run/bthcid.
