hciattach

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

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

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.
