The BluWAVE PCB Serial Terminal encapsulates all of the Bluetooth™ protocols on
a single chip, providing a simple serial interface to the host, therefore removing any
need for software drivers or experience in developing wireless technology.
Autoconnect to remote slave device with optional PIN code. If PIN code not specified
then no authentication is used. The unit will retry connections when the connection is
dropped and at power up. (WC master mode). AT+BWAL[=nn] Autolisten. Listen for
an incoming connection. The unit will resume listening when the connection is
dropped and at power up. (WC slave mode). The optional value indicates the timeout
for the listen.
Bluetooth - actual range of the device.
The device uses Bluetooth class 1. The range will depend on the other Bluetooth™
device that it is connected to. It will also depend on the physical environment ie)
obstructive walls and the type of walls the signal will need to go through and on the
antenna that is fitted. Assuming it is connected to a class 1 device then the maximum
range should be between 50 and 150 meters.
Connecting to another Bluetooth™ PC/PDA
The BluWave Serial Terminal will connect to any Bluetooth™ enabled device
supporting SPP. This can be in MASTER mode, where the terminal initiates the
connection, or SLAVE mode, where the remote device initiates the connection. The
method of connection will vary depending on the remote device. However, generally
the other device will perform a four stage process.
1.
The remote device will “discover” other Bluetooth devices. The BluWave
device will appear as “BluWave”.
2.
The remote device will need to pair with the BluWave. The pin number is then
entered.
3.
The remote device will connect to the serial port service of the BluWave
Serial Terminal.
4.
A virtual communications port will then generally be created and the
application can then talk over this port to the BluWave Serial Terminal.
Version 3 - WHEN CONNECTED THE GREEN/BLUE LED WILL
ILLUMINATE CONTINUOUSLY
