Abstract: A method and system are provided in which a Windows Portable Devices (WPD) driver installed and executed on a central device enables one or more applications on that device to interface with a peripheral device, such as a Bluetooth low energy (BLE) device. The peripheral device may utilize a Generic Attribute Profile (GATT) to interface with the WPD driver. Through the WPD driver, the central device may access, transmit, receive, and/or modify information associated with the peripheral device and/or control the peripheral device. The information associated with the peripheral device may include services, characteristics, and/or descriptors. A WPD device and objects that logically or virtually represents the peripheral device may be generated to map attributes of the WPD device to services and/or characteristics associated with the peripheral device. More than one WPD device may be available when multiple peripheral devices are represented in the central device.

Abstract: There is provided a method for use by a computing device for automatically establishing a dial-up connection to a network through a mobile device. The method includes establishing a communication link with a mobile device. For example, the mobile device can be a cellular telephone and the communication link can be a Bluetooth communication link. The method further includes receiving network identification data from the mobile device, where the network identification data indicates the type of the network, e.g., Global System for Mobile (“GSM”) communications or Code Division Multiple Access (“CDMA”). The method further includes configuring a dial-up connection entry in the computing device and configuring connection entry in the mobile device based on the type of the network, and establishing the dial-up connection to the network using the dial-up connection entry.

Abstract: A photoelectric control structure for a linear transmission device, including a mount, a transmission gear mounted on the mount and coupled to a motor, a photoelectric circuit board mounted on the mount and having a phototransistor and an infrared light emitting diode which controls the phototransistor, a light chopper turned by the transmission gear to intermittently block light from the light emitting diode toward the phototransistor, and a chopper cover fastened to the mount and covering the light chopper and the photoelectric circuit board for protection, wherein when the motor is started, the transmission gear is driven to turn the light chopper, causing light to intermittently pass through to the phototransistor, and therefore the infrared light emitting diode intermittently drives the phototransistor to send a pulse wave signal to the signal input terminal of a satellite antenna allocator.

Abstract: A photo chopper circuit consisting of a photo chopper, an overvoltage detection/control device, a power switch, and a protective diode for connection to the power supply line, voltage detection line, and ground terminal of a satellite antenna allocator, wherein if the photo chopper is erroneously connected to the voltage line of the satellite antenna allocator for motor drive or the power supply line of the satellite antenna allocator, the overvoltage detection/control device is turned on to switch off the power switch or, the protective diode reverses flow of voltage to protect the photo chopper.
