Visible only bluetoothnames of a Team to a Supervisor

Post by Yass »

Dear Cspro Team,

Please is it possible to restrict the number of bluetooth devices visible to a supervisor when syncing with Interviewer via Bluetooth. It a bit confusioning at training where a number of Bluetooth names are visible to a supervisor. I think it possible using the function BluetoothName but how to go around it. I have seen similar in a DHS program that only members of a team are visible to a supervisor but they use a third party utility not Cspro.

Please if it possible kindly help me go around this thanks.

It is not possible to filter the list of Bluetooth devices. If you know the name of the device you want to connect to you can connect directly without displaying the list by passing the device name in the call to synconnect(). So if you know the names of the devices of the team members you could display those names using accept() and then connect directly to the one that they choose. However, this would not take into account which devices were actually within range. It would always list all the devices of all the team members.
