- New License Enforcement;
- No need to activate over the Internet
- Install on as many PCs as you like
- Premium Maintenance updates performed in seconds
- Audio Extraction now accounts for silence
- OBEX over L2CAP
With FTS4BT 10.2.1.0, Frontline is introducing new, simplified license protection. Bluetooth ComProbe hardware can now be authorized, removing the requirement to activate FTS4BT over the Internet. This allows you to have FTS4BT on as many PCs as you’d like, with the air sniffing hardware serving as your authorization key. This works with your existing air sniffing hardware. A small file is loaded into the Bluetooth ComProbe, using a tool provided with FTS4BT 10.2.1.0. To request your file, all you need to do is to send the BD_ADDR (sometimes referred to as the MAC Address) of your Primary Bluetooth ComProbe to activate@fte.com.
For full details on the update process, please refer to Renewal Instructions.
Frontline includes two BR/EDR ComProbes
with every FTS4BT package, one Primary
ComProbe and one Secondary. We’ve seen a
proliferation of devices using Interlaced
Page Scan, and synching to those devices
requires a pair of ComProbes. Rather than
requiring our customers to buy an additional
ComProbe, we’re including both at no extra
charge.
For our customers who already own FTS4BT,
and would like to purchase a Secondary
ComProbe, Frontline is offering these at 50%
off of the list price of US$500 until March
31, 2010. Please contact
sales@fte.com
for more information.
- Firmware 60 – Bug fixes, support for

packets going between the two devices

The 802.11 Add-on comes with Wi-Fi sniffing hardware and capture
both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi data to a single file. It displays
Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on the new Coexistence View so that the
interaction between the two technologies may observed and
analyzed.
- Now supports AVRCP 1.4
- Secure Simple Pairing messages are captured and FTS4BT
computes the Link Key from the data in the messages if one or
both of the devices under test is in debug mode. FTS4BT can also
decrypt messages if the Link Key is provided by the user during
the capture process. For more information on SSP, please read
our
Secure
Simple Pairing White Paper.
Free Viewer
The Free Capture File Viewer may be
installed by downloading the installer above
and selecting File Viewer when prompted. No
serial number is required to install the
file viewer.
ComProbes
New Bluetooth ComProbes are available now at no
charge to FTS4BT users with a current Premium
Maintenance agreement in place. These new
ComProbes remove the requirement for
authorization codes to tie a ComProbe to a
specific serial number, so any probe may be used
with any FTS4BT installation. Multi unit
licenses are no longer required.

Improving Air Sniffing
Synchronization
If you are having problems synching
consistently, please upgrade your ComProbe to the current (blue and
white) model. Synchronization has been improved markedly over
earlier versions of the probe.
If you already have the new
ComProbe, but have older firmware, please download FTS4BT version
9.3.6.0 above.
Instructions for updating firmware are in the Upgrading Your
Bluetooth ComProbe document in the Setup folder under your FTS4BT
desktop folder.
If you have the new ComProbe and
are still experiencing problems, please read our
