&lt;p&gt;Yes, the devices should be able to connect and pair regardless of capabilities. As part of the security procedure, there is a negotiation of the highest possible security level that is supported by both devices.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Depending on the SDK and particular example, there may be additional settings that you can enable for requiring a certain security level. Apart from that you can always terminate the connection from the application if you do not get the wanted security level.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;br /&gt;Terje&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
