I’m out of my league with a Bluetooth to TTL Serial connection and I need to help please.
Basics:
OS - Windows 7 Pro
Bluetooth software - Toshiba Bluetooth Stack
Bluetooth Dongle - USB Kingston Micro Bluetooth Dongle
Bluetooth receiver on remote Serial device - Roving Networks RN-42SM
TTL Serial device - telescope
The RN-42SM powers up and I can make a connection to it. I can use the serial terminal program, Terra Term, to communicate with the RN-42SM so I know that part works. When I try to use the application to connect to the serial device I get the error message that the application cannot communicate with the device (telescope). From a terminal in Wind 7 I typed “mode.com6” which is the virtual com created by my Bluetooth software, from this I see the following:
baude rate = 19200
parity = none
data = 8
stop bit = 1
to = off
xon = off
odsr = off
octs = off
rts = off
idsr = off
What I need is:
baude rate = 9600
parity = none
data = 8
stop bit = 1
to = off
xon = off
odsr = off
octs = on
rts = on
idsr = off
How do I make this change? I have gone through all the settings for the Bluetooth software but I did not see any way of making the needed changes to the com6. Thank you.
