Hello,

could some one please tell me if there is a way to reduce the timeout time
? e.g. to 2 ?

I would like to do this, because I like to find out what the link
quality and rssi of a device is. As
my bluetooth hardware only supports 1.1 and not 1.2 I have to connect to
the device first in order to find out the above information. As my list of
BT devices I would like to find the above info out about is constantly
growing I have a problem with the hcitool cc timeout, as I do:

hcitool cc BT-address
hcitool lq BT-address
hcitool dc BT-address

If the device is in range the three commands are very quick, but if the
device is not in range the connect command takes a long time till it times
out.
So my question is, is there a way to reduce the timeout time ? e.g. to 2
sec. ?

Thank you very much for your help.

Cheers,
Phil
