Even though the setup procedure will be different for each of them, the basics
remain the same. The two major steps are: discovering a Bluetooth device and
assigning a communication port number to the discovered device. The data
collection software will then call the assigned port number to receive the data from
the SXblue receiver.
In this section, we will give some examples of setting up Bluetooth communication
with various computer and device. One key element to remember is that the
SXblue receiver does not require any password (often called pairing, secure
connection, authentication, passkey, passcode, etc). This feature must be disabled
in the options of the driver you are using.
Note – The SXblue does not require any password/passkey for secure
connection. This feature must be disabled in the driver configuration of your
Computer or device.
A passkey of “12345678” has been programmed in the receivers in case a
Bluetooth driver absolutely requires a secure connection.
1.3.2.1 Android OS
Android version 5.1 has been used for this Bluetooth connection procedure. Steps
are similar with other version of Android OS. The following screenshots show how
to properly handle the configuration steps to connect SXblue receiver with your
device.
