Bluetooth link to replace serial cable for OOPic



Hi,

I have an oopic II+ microcontroller with RS232 level converters and I
am currently programming it with a serial cable connected to my PCs
COM1 port. I want to replace the serial cable with a Bluetooth link to
allow wireless dat transmission between the PC and the robot as it
executes my program.

I have the HPU-100 USB Bluetooth dongle and HPS-120 RS232 transceiver
from Total Robots (http://www.totalrobots.com/access_files/wcm.htm).
However, I cannot get the two to communicate. I have the HPS-120
connected to the DB9 connector of the RS232 converter board, and it is
receiving power etc ok. I have installed all the drivers for the USB
dongle, but it always shows up that it can't find any bluetooth
devices. It does show up in device manager that I have the drivers
correctly installed so that should not be the problem.

Has anyone used these modules (or similar) before and can tell me if
I'm missing something obvious?

Thanks,
Niamh
