When two BWT-enabled devices are within range, they perform a service discovery during which they report a list of available profiles. If any of the profiles for the two devices match, they can connect and interoperate based on the matching profiles. Table 2 describes some of the BWT profiles built into HP notebook PCs, iPAQ Pocket PCs, and printers. Detailed instructions on performing the functions listed in this section are described in the documentation that accompanies each HP product.
