The SonarMite Bluetooth 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
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 Bluetooth 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.
The remote device will “discover” other Bluetooth devices. The Bluetooth
device will appear as “SMnnnnnn” (where nnnnnn is serial number).
The remote device will need to “Pair” with the SonarMite Bluetooth. The pin
number is then entered.
The remote device will connect to the serial port service of the SonarMite
Bluetooth Serial Terminal.
A virtual “Outgoing” communications Comm port will then generally be
created and the application can then talk over this port to any connection to the
SonarMite Bluetooth Serial Terminal.
WHEN CONNECTED THE RED LED WILL ILLUMINATE AND
FLASH CONTINUOUSLY
