ADAPTER PROPERTIES

48       string  Address [ro]
49               The Bluetooth adapter address (MAC).
50
51       string  Alias [rw]
52               The Bluetooth adapter friendly name.
53
54       uint32  Class [ro]
55               The Bluetooth class of device.
56
57       boolean Powered [rw]
58               Switch an adapter on or off. This will also set the
59               appropiate connectable state.
60
61       boolean Discoverable [rw]
62               Switch an adapter to discoverable or non-discoverable
63               to either make it visible or hide it.
64
65               If the DiscoverableTimeout is set to a non-zero
66               value then the system will set this value back to
67               false after the timer expired.
68
69               In case the adapter is switched off, setting this
70               value will fail.
71
72       boolean Pairable [rw]
73               Switch an adapter to pairable or non-pairable.
74
75               Note that this property only affects incoming pairing
76               requests.
77
78       uint32  PaireableTimeout [rw]
79               The pairable timeout in seconds. A value of zero
80               means that the timeout is disabled and it will stay in
81               pareable mode forever.
82
83       uint32  DiscoverableTimeout [rw]
84               The discoverable timeout in seconds. A value of zero
85               means that the timeout is disabled and it will stay in
86               discoverable/limited mode forever.
87
88               The default value for the discoverable timeout should
89               be 180 seconds (3 minutes).
90
91       boolean Discovering [ro]
92               Indicates that a device discovery procedure is active.
93
94       list    UUIDs [ro]
95               List of 128-bit UUIDs that represents the available local
