The I/O is NOT 5V tolerant.<cr> = Carriage Return (ENTER key, 0x0D), <cr_lf> = Carriage Return + Linefeed (0x0D0A)3 DriversThe Dongle and the DevBoard both require virtual COM port drivers, which can be obtained from: http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm. Windows will automatically locate and install these drivers.4 Documentation and Firmware UpdatesModule documentation and firmware updates can be downloaded from: http://www.blueradios.com/forum.5 Quick Start Using Windows and HyperTerminal5.1 Terminal Setup1. Plug the Dongle into an available USB port on your PC and a red power led will come on. Follow the prompts to install the device and be sure to note the COM port that has been assigned to the Dongle. The assigned COM port number can be found in Device Manager under Ports.2. Open a new HyperTerminal session named “Master-Dongle”, with factory default settings (do not echo characters or append any additional line feeds). Connect to the COM port assigned to your Dongle at 115200, 8-N-1, with hardware flow control.3. On the DevBoard set the power switch to the USB position and then connect the provided USB cable to the USB connector labeled “UART”. Plug the cable into an available USB port on your PC and the red VBUS led will come on. The PIO5 led will also start pulsing every 2 seconds, indicating the module is discoverable. The DevBoard will install two COM ports, the port with the higher number is the one you will be using. 4. Open another new HyperTerminal session named “Slave-DevBoard" withfactory default settings (do not echo characters or append line feeds). Connect to the COM port assigned to your DevBoard at 115200, 8-N-1, with hardware flow control.5. To verify communication with each module, type “AT<cr>” in each terminal and the module will respond OK.COMMAND: AT<cr> RESPONSE: <cr_lf>OK<cr_lf>6. Read and record the Bluetooth Address from the DevBoard by typing “ATA?<cr>” in the DevBoard terminal. COMMAND: ATA?<cr> RESPONSE: <cr_lf>OK<cr_lf><cr_lf>ECFE7EXXXXXX<cr_lf>5.2 Making a Low Energy (LE) Connection1. If you are using a Dual Mode module, make the DevBoard discoverable by typing “ATDSLE<cr>” in the DevBoard terminal. (Single Mode modules are LE discoverable by default.)COMMAND: ATDSLE<cr> RESPONSE: <cr_lf>OK<cr_lf>2. Next, try to discover the DevBoard from the Dongle by typing “ATDILE<cr>” in the Master-Dongle terminal.COMMAND: ATDILE<cr> RESPONSE: <cr_lf>OK<cr_lf>The Dongle will respond with multiple discovery events depending on how many LE devices are in the area.By default the module does an active scan discovery, so up to 2 events may print for each discovered device.

The 12 characters in the third field of the response are the remote module’s Bluetooth Address. 3. Once you have discovered your DevBoard you are ready to connect to it. In the Master-Dongle terminal, type “ATDMLE,XXXXXXXXXXXX<cr>”, filling in the X’s with the DevBoard’s address.COMMAND: ATDMLE,ECFE7EXXXXXX<cr> RESPONSE: <cr_lf>OK<cr_lf>4. Once connected, both modules will send a CONNECT event, showing the address of the remote device. ABRSP event will also be sent, signaling that the modules are in BRSP data mode. At this point data can be sent by typing into either terminal.EVENT: <cr_lf>CONNECT,0,1,0,ECFE7EXXXXXX<cr_lf>EVENT: <cr_lf>BRSP,0,1<cr_lf>5. To disconnect, first type “+++<cr>” into either terminal. This escape sequence will take the module out of BRSP data mode and put it into command mode. COMMAND: +++<cr> RESPONSE: <cr_lf>OK<cr_lf>Next, type “ATDH,0<cr>” and the connection will be terminated.COMMAND: ATDH,0<cr> RESPONSE: <cr_lf>OK<cr_lf>EVENT: <cr_lf>DISCONNECT,0,0<cr_lf>A disconnect event will also print from the remote module as well.EVENT: <cr_lf>DISCONNECT,0,1<cr_lf>5.3 Making a Classic Bluetooth (CB) Connection – Dual Mode Only1. Dual Mode modules are CB discoverable by default, so the DevBoard can be discovered by typing “ATDI<cr>” in the Master-Dongle terminal.COMMAND: ATDI<cr> RESPONSE: <cr_lf>OK<cr_lf>The Dongle will respond with multiple discovery events depending on how many CB devices are in the area. Only one event will be sent per device, as opposed to up to 2 for LE.EVENT: <cr_lf>DISCOVERY,1,ECFE7EXXXXXX,000000,-045,3,EIR_DATA<cr_lf>After 10 seconds, or the maximum number of devices have been found, the module will send a DONE event:EVENT: <cr_lf>DONE,0,1<cr_lf>2. To make a CB connection, type “ATDM,XXXXXXXXXXXX<cr>” in the Master-Dongle terminal, filling in the X’s with the DevBoard’s address.COMMAND: ATDM,ECFE7EXXXXXX<cr> RESPONSE: <cr_lf>OK<cr_lf>3. Once connected, both modules will send a PAIRED event, followed by a CONNECT event, showing the address of the remote device. An SPP event will also be sent, signaling that the modules are in SPP data mode. At this point data can be sent by typing into either terminal.EVENT: <cr_lf>PAIRED,ECFE7EXXXXXX,1<cr_lf>EVENT: <cr_lf>CONNECT,0,0,0,ECFE7EXXXXXX<cr_lf>EVENT: <cr_lf>SPP,0,1<cr_lf>To disconnect, first type “+++<cr>” to take the module out of SPP data mode and put it into command mode. Then type “ATDH,0<cr>” and the connection will be terminated.COMMAND: +++<cr> RESPONSE: <cr_lf>OK<cr_lf>COMMAND: ATDH,0<cr> RESPONSE: <cr_lf>OK<cr_lf>EVENT: <cr_lf>DISCONNECT,0,0<cr_lf>A disconnect event will also print from the remote module as well.EVENT: <cr_lf>DISCONNECT,0,1<cr_lf>
