SYNOPSIS
hccontrol |
[-hN] [-n
HCI_node_name] command
[parameters ...] |
DESCRIPTION
Thehccontrol utility connects to the specified Netgraph
node of type HCI or the first one found if none is
specified and attempts to send the specified command to the HCI Netgraph node
or to the associated Bluetooth device. The hccontrol
utility will print results to the standard output and error messages to the
standard error.
The options are as follows:
-h- Display usage message and exit.
-N- Show Bluetooth addresses as numbers. Normally
hccontrolattempts to resolve Bluetooth addresses, and display them symbolically. -nHCI_node_name- Connect to the specified HCI Netgraph node.
- command
- One of the supported commands (see below). The special command
helpcan be used to obtain the list of all supported commands. To get more information about a specific command usehelpcommand. - parameters
- One or more optional space separated command parameters. Many commands
require a remote device address as one of the parameters. The remote
device address can be specified as BD_ADDR or a name. If a name was
specified then the
hccontrolutility will attempt to resolve the name via bt_gethostbyname(3).
