Title: Bluetooth Axon and vista
Post by: Klinger on June 12, 2009, 09:28:07 AM: I have a Axon mircoController and BlueSMiRF attached together with Uart0. I trying to talk with it with my vista computer. I can see the module and I attach to it but I cannot talk to it. I am using Hyper terminal private edition. I talking to the same com port number 5. But if I try and do anything it say "com5 unable to open please check setting". Then vista normal ask for a pin number to talk to the robot. I checked on the same baud rate.

Here is my coding just in case

uartSetBaudRate(0, 38400);

char cByte= uart0GetByte();

   while(1)
   {
   if(cByte =='1')
   {
   backward();
   }

thanks

I found the Password 1234now the green 'connected' Light is on
the Com5 error is not there. But I still cannot type anything in.

Try transmitting data instead. Do an rprintf("hello world"); and see what happens.

Also, your code should be this:

Code: [Select]
uartSetBaudRate(0, 38400); while(1) { char cByte= uart0GetByte(); if(cByte =='1') { backward(); } }

I put in the rprintf so but i just getting ASCII symbol on my screen and it is not listen to any commands that I type.

   while(1)
   {
   cByte=uart0GetByte();

   rprintf("Hello World \n");

   if(cByte =='1')
   {
      while(1)
      {

      backward();
      }
