Piconet Architecture Setup in a Bluetooth Enabled Computer Environment
Original Post: masters and slaves (eGroups Msg.)
Date: 2000-07-24
Assuming a computer was equipped with all bluetooth enabled
peripherals.How is this configured, as single/multiple piconet(s) , and
thus who is master and who is slave?
2 (slightly) differing answers given:
The BT unit attached to the CPU should become the master and will
control all the slaves (which are peripherals). So that the BT at the
CPU could contact all the other devices without switching the piconet.
If required, the devices may switch roles at any time.
The BT unit who wants to be Master becomes Master of the piconet it
formed. It is all up to the unit itself (perhaps controlled by the
application running on the unit).
