A method for data transfer includes establishing a first wireless connection between a transceiver and a handheld device, the transceiver initially operating in an peripheral role and the handheld device operating in a central role; switching a role of both the transceiver and the handheld device in response to establishing the first wireless connection, the transceiver module switching from the peripheral role to the central role, and the handheld device from the central role to the peripheral role; and establishing a second wireless connection between the transceiver and the handheld device subsequent to the switching.
