BTHSET(1) BSD General Commands Manual BTHSET(1)NAMEbthset — Bluetooth Headset utility
SYNOPSISbthset [-v] [-c command] [-m mixer] [-p file] [-s channel]
bthset [-h]
DESCRIPTION
The bthset utility is used to access a Bluetooth Headset with the
btsco(4) audio device. It opens the mixer(4) device and creates the con‐
trol connection to the headset, then conducts volume settings each way.
When bthset receives a SIGUSR1 signal, it will start sending RING codes
to the headset until the headset button is pressed or a SIGUSR2 signal is
received. If the headset is ringing and bthset receives a button press
notification, the specified command (if any) is executed.
When the server channel is specified with the -s option, instead of open‐
ing the control connection, bthset will listen on the channel for incom‐
ing connections from the Headset and register as Headset Audio Gateway
with the local SDP server.
The options are as follows:
-c command
Specify an optional command to be executed when the headset
responds to ringing with a button press event. This defaults to
the contents of the BTHSET_COMMAND environment variable, if set.
-h Print usage message.
-m mixer
Specify the path to the mixer device. This defaults to the con‐
tents of the BTHSET_MIXER environment variable, or /dev/mixer if
not set.
-p file
Write the PID to file so that other programs can find us later.
This defaults to the contents of the BTHSET_PIDFILE environment
variable, if set.
-s channel
Register with the local SDP server as a Headset Audio Gateway and
listen for connections on the given RFCOMM server channel.
-v Be verbose.
EXIT STATUS
The bthset utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
