I'm a beginner with Bluetooth. I'm trying to use Bluecove with Java. I would like to communicate with a device which is already connected/paired to my computer (such as retrieving device battery levels). The problem is that I can't find the connected device.
I know I can have the local device, retrieve devices etc, but I can't have the connected device. I'm using the code found here.
I am ready to try another library if needed.
In BluetoothDevices.java :
import javax.swing.*;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.List;

/* DefaultListModel to attach it with JList */
private DefaultListModel defaultModel;
/* Map to get device details list */
private Map<String, List<String>> mapReturnResult = new HashMap<String, List<String>>();
/* Map to identify device on user click of JList */
private Map<Integer, List<String>> mapDevicePosition = new HashMap<Integer, List<String>>();
public BluetoothDevices() {
initComponents();
defaultModel = new DefaultListModel();

As you can see, I tried to get the all PREKNOWN devices for LocalDevice. Here, I can find every Bluetooth devices I have already connected to my computer but I can't know if it is connected.
Here is the output :

The device I want to use is Parrot ZIK 2.0 V2.05.
In the linked library docs they claim the following:
Hope these two examples in test classes will help too.
