= Device identification =
 
After the File system is up 'hciconfig' should show the connected bluetooth module.
<pre>root@var-som-mx6:~# hciconfig
hci0:  Type: BR/EDR  Bus: UART
        BD Address: 50:72:24:11:EF:B0  ACL MTU: 1021:6  SCO MTU: 180:4
        UP RUNNING PSCAN
        RX bytes:701 acl:0 sco:0 events:44 errors:0

</pre>
The hcitool can be used to show the Bluetooth MAC address of the Bluetooth module with the respective hci connection. Type help to show commands.
<pre>root@var-som-mx6:~# hcitool dev
Devices:

= Managing bluetooth =
 
You can manage bluetooth with bluetoothctl, type 'bluetoothctl' and enter the interface. Type help to show commands.</br>
For connecting a device do the following:</br>
<pre>
$ bluetoothctl
[bluetooth]# power on
[bluetooth]# default-agent
[bluetooth]# pairable on
 
Push the connect button in the device
 
[bluetooth]# scan on
 
Copy mac address
 
[bluetooth]# scan off
[bluetooth]# pair <mac address>
 
Approve pairing on Device if required
 
[bluetooth]# trust <mac address>
[bluetooth]# connect <mac address>
[bluetooth]# quit
</pre>
 
For example when connecting a microsoft bluetooth mouse the following is done:</br>
<pre>
root@var-som-mx6:~# bluetoothctl

= File Transfer =
 
Sending a file from the board to the bluetooth device using the obex transfer.
 
1) First, establish connection to the device as described above.</br>
2) Start obex daemon and obexctl. Type help to show commands. <pre>
$ export DISPLAY=:0.0
$ /usr/lib/bluez5/bluetooth/obexd &
$ obexctl
</pre>
3) connect to Device 
<pre>[obex]# connect <mac addr>
</pre>
4) Send a file from obexctl to the device 
<pre>[<mac addr>]# send <file>
</pre>
5) Once it's done, close the session <pre>
[<mac addr>]# disconnect
[<mac addr>]# quit
</pre>
