Part two: the Receiver
Last night I programmed the Bluetooth and XBee radio modules. I used PuTTy to send the commands to the Bluetooth module and x-ctu for changing the baud rate of the XBee. In PuTTy I entered each command one line at a time and it returned OK after each set except for the final command with returned "Reset" so I figured it worked. With the BT unit still plugged into my computer, I used my phone's BT setup menu and searched for devices. It found one named RocketTrack which told me I did it correctly.
farsidius,
You said you used PuTTy to configure the bluetooth module. What were the settings you used? I can't get a connection. The black screen comes up, but no keyboard response. My serial cable is on COM6, so I set that and changed the baud rate to 115200, to no avail. Any insight you could provide would be appreciated.
Also, I tried using telnet but couldn't get a connection there either.
Oh, one other thing... Any bluetooth device should see the bluetooth transmitter on the RX whether it's programmed or not, including an IPhone, right?
Thanks,
Darrell
