Command Line
"<Filename>.exe" /install /quiet /log "<Filename for Logfile.txt>" 

Any problem can be found in the log file.

2.3.1. AirID Integration

There are two possible options for integration of AirID which can be used:
  1. Complete integration of AirID driver and AirID Central functionality into the third party app
  2. Only integration of AirID driver into the third party app and usage of AirID Central app in addition (interaction of the apps via keychain)

Depending on the form of integration, the Bluetooth pairing process will be done within the third party app (1.) or within the AirID Central app (2.).

For both option a smart card middleware within the third party app is required to use the smart card provided by AirID.
