NAME

       hciattach - attach serial devices via UART HCI to BlueZ stack

SYNOPSIS

       hciattach [OPTIONS] <tty> <type|id> [speed] [flow] [sleep] [bdaddr]

       hciattach -1

DESCRIPTION

       hciattach(1)  is  used  to  attach  a  serial UART to the Bluetooth stack as HCI transport
       interface.

OPTIONS

       -i     Send break

       -n     Don't detach from controlling terminal.

       -p     Print the PID when detaching.

       -t timeout
              Specify an initialization timeout. Default is 5 seconds.

       -s speed
              Specify an initial speed instead of the hardware default.

       -l     List all available configurations.

       -r     Set the HCI device into raw mode. The kernel and bluetooth daemon will ignore it.

       -h, --help
              Show help options

ARGUMENTS

       show   This specifies the serial device to attach. A leading /dev can be omitted.

              Examples: /dev/ttyS1 ttyS2

       type|id
              The type or id of the Bluetooth device that is to be attached, i.e. vendor or other
              device specific identifier.  Currently supported types are

       speed  The  speed specifies the UART speed to use. Baudrates higher than 115200bps require
              vendor specific  initializations that are not implemented for all types of devices.
              In general the following speeds are supported:

              Supported  vendor  devices  are  automatically initialised to their respective best
              settings.

       flow   If the flow is appended to the list of options then hardware flow control is forced
              on  the  serial  link  (CRTSCTS). All above mentioned device types have flow set by
              default. To force no flow control use noflow instead.

       sleep|nosleep
              Enables hardware specific power management feature. If sleep  is  appended  to  the
              list  of  options then this feature is enabled. To disable this feature use nosleep
              instead. All above mentioned device types have nosleep set by default.

              Note: This option will only be valid for hardware which support  hardware  specific
              power management enable option from host.

       bdaddr The bdaddr specifies the Bluetooth Address to use. Some devices (like the STLC2500)
              do not store the Bluetooth address in hardware memory.  Instead it must be uploaded
              during  the initialization process. If this argument is specified, then the address
              will be used to initialize the device. Otherwise, a default address will be used.
