Starting anyRemote
Bluetooth connection
- Run anyRemote with
-s bluetooth:XX
command line option, where XX is a channel number. Default channel is 19. You could choose other bluetooth channel instead of 19. (Alternatively it is possible to add commandMake(var,Device,by_value,bluetooth:XX);
to the(Init)= ...
command sequence.) - So, run
anyremote -f .../some_cfg_file.cfg -s bluetooth:XX
- Run the client in the phone.
- Start search in the client. Then connect to anyRemote server when it found.
- See examples in cfg-data/Server-mode and cfg-data/Bemused-emulation directories to understand how to write custom-made configuration files.
Network connection
anyRemote can accept incoming connection from network, so if You start it with -s tcp:5197
command line option it will be
possible to connect to anyRemote from phone through GPRS or Wi-Fi connection.
anyremote -f .../some_cfg_file.cfg -s tcp:5197
You can choose another port then 5197.
If You plan to connect to anyRemote through network, then it needs to manually specify address to connect in
the client. It should be in form socket://_your_ip_address_:_port_
. Be sure You have run anyRemote with -s tcp:_port_
in this case.
IR connection
anyRemote can work through IR connection if java realization in cell phone support access to IR port. In this case start
anyRemote with -s local:/dev/ircommX
command line option, where /dev/ircommX
is device corresponding to
IR adapter of PC.
anyremote -f .../some_cfg_file.cfg -s local:/dev/ircomm0
If java realization in cell phone supports access to IR port, then after search process there will be found
peer with name like comm:IR0
