btpin — Bluetooth PIN utility

btpin [-d device] [-s path] {-p pin | -r [-l len]} -a address

The btpin utility is used to register a temporary PIN with the bthcid(8) daemon for the purposes of pairing Bluetooth devices. The PIN will be valid for 5 minutes or until used, whichever comes first.

The options are as follows:

address
Specify the remote device address. The address can be specified as BD_ADDR or a name. If a name was specified, the btpin utility attempts to resolve the name via bt_gethostbyname(3).
device
Specify the local device address. The device can be specified by BD_ADDR or device name. See btconfig(8) for a list of devices available. If no device is specified, the PIN will be valid for any local device.
len
Specify length of PIN to generate, where 1 ≤ len ≤ 16.
pin
The PIN to register. The PIN may be up to 16 bytes in length.
Generate a random PIN, the default length is 4 bytes.
path
Specify path to the control socket. The default path is /var/run/bthcid.

The btpin utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
