WHAT'S IN THE BOX BTM41x Development Board USB Cable Whip Antenna (only for BTM410) Bluetooth(R) USB dongle Software CD - EZURiO Terminal - FTDI USB to RS232 driver - BTM41x datasheet - Laird Technologies Bluetooth(R) line card Updated datasheets and firmware are available at www.lairdtech.com/wireless. Additionally, you need a Windows PC running Windows XP SP2 or later. BLUETOOTH USB DONGLE INSTALLATION 1. Uninstall all third-party Bluetooth stacks, drivers and devices from your PC. 2. Plug the Laird Technologies USB dongle into the PC. Windows XP SP2 detects the device and opens an installation window. 3. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the standard Microsoft Bluetooth driver. 4. Open the Windows Device Manager. 5. Verify that the Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator and TDK Bluetooth USB Adaptor are installed. Figure 1: Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator and TDK Bluetooth USB Adaptor are present Note: You must have at least Windows XP SP2 to install the Microsoft Bluetooth 2.0 driver for the Laird Technologies USB Dongle. Windows Vista SP1 and Windows 7 support Bluetooth 2.1. Microsoft does not provide a Bluetooth 2.1 driver for Windows XP. Since the USB dongle only supports Bluetooth 2.0+EDR, it does not have Bluetooth 2.1 functionality on Windows Vista or 7.

Enter the following commands: AT&F* // reset to factory defaults ATS512=4 // make device discoverable and connectable ATS0=1 // auto answer after 1 ring AT+BTK="1234" // set the pin code AT&W // save the settings to flash memory ATZ // software reset the device. AT+BTIN // scan for discoverable Bluetooth devices AT+BTW<Bluetooth ID of USB dongle> 3. On the PC, a pop up balloon appears saying "Incoming connection." Enter your passkey ("1234" in the example above, set with AT+BTK). Your devices should now be paired. 4. Go to Control Panel > Devices > COM port tab and add an incoming COM port. 5. Use the EZURiO Terminal to open the incoming COM port. 6. Notice that the CSR and DSR LEDs are red on the EZURiO Terminal. 7. Send the following command to the module: ATD<Bluetooth ID of the USB dongle> (The ID is found by searching for discoverable devices using the AT+BTIN command.) 8. Connection is auto-accepted by the PC. If CSR and DSR LEDs are green, the connection is active. 9. Use ^^^ to escape to command mode and enter ATH to hang up the connection.
