HUMAN INTERFACE DEVICE (HID) PROFILE
VERSION 1.0 ADOPTED
Abstract
This profile defines how devices with Bluetooth™ wireless
communications can use the HID Protocol initially to discover the
feature set of a HID, and then communicate with the HID. This profile
BLUETOOTH SPECIFICATION
HID Profile Page 2 of 123
further defines how a device with Bluetooth wireless communications
can support HID services over the Bluetooth protocol stack using the
Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol (L2CAP) layer.
