Definition of new DIAC values

Original Post: DV Packet (eGroups Msg. ) Date: 2000-09-21

    DIAC's (Dedicated Inquiry Access Code), are used when you wish to inquire for certain, specific types of devices. These DIAC are not defined by the Bluetooth SIG , as they are implementation specific and used for manufacturers to enable their devices to quickly locate and identify devices from the same manufacturer. 

    The Baseband spec (pp.147) give more information about DIAC's and their definition/assigning:  "There is a block of 64 contiguous LAPs reserved for Bluetooth inquiry operations; one LAP common to all Bluetooth devices is reserved for general inquiry, the remaining 63 LAPs are reserved for dedicated inquiry of specific classes of Bluetooth devices...... The reserved LAP addresses are tentatively chosen as 0x9E8B00- 0x9E8B3F. The general inquiry LAP is tentatively chosen to 0x9E8B33."
