Bluetooth Remote Wake Test

Note  This content applies to the Windows Logo Kit (WLK). For the latest information using the new Windows Hardware Certification Kit (HCK), see Windows HCK User's Guide on the Windows Hardware Dev Center.

Type: Automated Test

Overview

This test performs the basic validation of remote wake functionality supported by Bluetooth radio. The support for remote wake was enabled in the Windows Vista Feature Pack for Wireless and this test ensures the compliance with Bluetooth 2.1 specifications.

Details

The test comprises of a client and server applications which runs on two separate machines. The test installs the Bluetooth HID simulator on the server machine to simulate it as a keyboard device. The client pairs with the server (keyboard) and then sends a packet to the server to simulate a key press event after 60 seconds, The client machine then goes to S3 state and waits for the key press event from server. The test passes if key press event wakes the client from S3. However, if key press event is missed by client, the timer wakes the system up after 3 minutes and the test fails. In case timer wakes the system, the test application receives PBT_APMRESUMEAUTOMATIC event. If key press event wakes the system from S3, the test application first receives PBT_APMRESUMEAUTOMATIC event and then PBT_APMRESUMESUSPEND event.

Running Bluetooth Remote Wake Test

<All test cases return PASS or FAIL. Review the test results in the log file for specific details about failures.

When the test completes, review the logs to see if the test passed. The client machine should take between 60 seconds and 3 minutes to wake up. The test logs should have events PBT_APMRESUMEAUTOMATIC and PBT_APMRESUMESUSPEND in that order

The test might return SKIP if...>
