PIC16F877A interface Sparkfun Bluetooth SMD Module WRL-08474

PIC 16F877A interface Sparkfun Bluetooth SMD Module WRL-08474

Hello, I am an engineering student working on a project based on Remote Data Display System using bluetooth for wireless communication. Below, I have described the project contents and its working in precise.

My project consists of 2 parts; the transmitter side consists of PC or LAPTOP along with a Bluetooth DONGLE and the receiver side consists of a Bluetooth UART MODULE, Microcontroller and lcd. So, the aim of my project is to type the characters on PC using Hyperterminal and transmit it wirelessly to the receiver Bluetooth UART module and display it on the lcd with the help of microcontroller(PIC16F877A).

However i m having few doubts based on it as follows:-

  1. I have seen the features of the above mentioned Bluetooth MODULE but would like to clarify whether it can be compatible with PIC16F877A microcontroller which i 'll be using as Host to control this module so as to detect remote devices and to receive data.

  2. Can i directly interface my PIC to this Bluetooth MODULE at the receiver side?

  3. Can i create or establish connectivity with the transmitter side USB Dongle from this receiver side Bluetooth MODULE via. PIC…?

  4. Can i get an example of a command to be sent in C language via PIC to control this Bluetooth MODULE?

  5. At transmitter side, can i use any Bluetooth USB dongle to transmit characters to WRL-08474 or do i hve to use Bluetooth Dongle v1.2 to be compatible with the receiver side?

Thanks…

Hi ananth u have done project on WRL08474 wright… i need ur help regarding this module. Am not able to establish the connection between the module and PC… I have used pic 16F877A + wrl08474 in one end and PC at the other end… could you please help me in this
