I’d like to have the BlueSMiRF call me rather than me call the BlueSMiRF.
When BlueSMiRF is detected, it is assigned two COM ports COM3 outgoing, COM 4 incoming in my case.
After pairing the device once with
AT+BTPAR=1, 001583BF86AC, which returns a long number and windows says it is fine after I follow a few steps…
I establish the connection with:
AT+BTCLT=001583BF86AC, 1 (service 1 is “serial” service of my USB dongle)
This makes the radio light on steady AND windows says that it is connected to the Sparkfun BT device
The terminal connected to the inputs of the BlueSMiRF responds to the BTCLT command with OK
However, it does not appear to enter data mode. Subsequent typing is not echoed, however typing “ATI” and hitting enter results in “ERROR” as does any string.
AT+BTSRV=1 also responds OK however subsequent typing does not result in a reply from the BlueSMiRF, which corresponds to the expected behavior of the device.
During these operations I am connected in another terminal to COM4.
My goal here is simple.
Boot the BlueSMiRF. With it hard wired to a serial port.
Send AT commands to make a connection to my computer.
See what I type on the first terminal on a second terminal.
I have a good reason for wanting to do the connection ‘backwards’. Forward works fine.
I’ll keep trying but I’m fresh out of ideas right now, so I’m hoping someone else has done this already.
