Hi,

Did someone tried to connect CC2560-PAN1313 kit to general laptop Bluetooth module, to avoid using z430-rf2560 usb stick?

and how?

Thanks.

    Kepie,

    The laptop should be able to discover the module. However, I do not believe it will be able to link up to it without a bit of software adjustment.

    When the MSP430 software is looking to make a link connection, it is looking for a specefic host, in this case it is something like "blue-msp430". If that is not the host device, it will not pair up.

    If you play around with this, and make any progress. I would be interested in hearing your feedback on this.

    Kepei,

     

    As Jason correctly said, you need to change the name of the BT Dongle/Device on your PC to have the name "BlueMSP-XXXX" where XXXX are 4 random Hexadecimal digits. For example, "BlueMSP-34AB"

    In some cases, changing to "BlueMSP-DemoXXXX" is needed. If the first one doesn't work, please try the second suggestion.

    Thanks Jason and Gustavo,

    Changing only the name of the bluetooth device built in laptop does not work,

    the message "SPP connection from Non BlueMSP device is not allowed " still shows up;

    BTW, is there any reference or document about this SPP program? It is too tough a work to understand the whole thing by reading most of the codes.

    Thanks

    Kepei,

     

    What name are you trying to use? Are you trying to connect to an EZ430 or PAN13xx?

    There is a developer's guide available with a lot of information:

    Thanks Gustavo,

    I got them working now. Several points:

     The program verifies the prefix characters of the device name, which must initials with "BlueMSP-Demo"... I just used "BlueMSP-Demo" at last.

     Board cannot find computer. Laptop start the connection.

     The program requires paring code "0000"

    Now I could receive data with HyperTerminal.
