BT-210 uses Bluetooth communication to allow the modules to interact via serial communication (UART). The compatible products are shown below: (Please refer to the compatible part for instructions on how to connect the device.)

Caution Following products are not compatible with BT-210.

  • Remote Controller : RC-100, RC-100A
  • Controller : CM-100, CM-5, CM-2+
  • Communication module : BT-410, BT-410 Dongle

Example

CAUTION : Please be sure to connect the device while the controller is turned off. Damage may occur if the device is connected while the power is turned on.

Communication Mode

Utilizes a pairing mechanism that allows reliable 1:1 communication.

1:1 Communication

BT-210 Setting

Setup

  1. Download example “c_Serial_Serial2_Converter” from Arduino or f_SerialUSB_Serial2_Converter” from OpenCM IDE for the OpenCM-9.04.

    With references to add “OpenCM9.04” Board Manager to Arduino IDE

    When using Arduino IDE

    WARNING : OpenCM IDE is not updated anymore. It is recommanded to use Arduino IDE as OpenCM IDE isn’t maintanined anymore.

    When using OpenCM IDE

  2. Connect the BT-210 to the OpenCM9.04, then run Tera Term.

  3. Once connection is complete baud rate can be any.

  4. Go to Setup->Terminal and check local echo.

  5. Enter ! in terminal and if OK is returned, BT-210 is in Command Mode. Enter AT and if OK is returned, now BT-210 is ready for the setting.

  6. Once setup is completed, reconnect the BT-210 with the controller. The picture shows BT-210 is set as a Master.

AT Commands

The following are AT terminal commands for the BT-210

NOTE:
If an error comes in the cmd, input ”!”(Shift+1) to restart writing.
If the command fails or does’t move to the next step, input “AT(at)” or ”!”, then re-input.
If the BT module is not detected, then the controller or firmware needs to be restored.

  1. System reset Enter ATZ press the Enter key and the BT-210 resets.if settings have changed the mode will change upon reset.

  2. Mode change
    • Use this command to switch between master and slave modes for the BT-210.
      • AT+BTROLE=M -> Master mode
      • AT+BTROLE=S -> Slave mode
    • Afterwards enter ATZ to reset.

    MASTER Mode

    SLAVE Mode

  3. Peripheral device search This is possible only in master mode. Enter AT+BTINQ followed by the Enter key the device class comes as 0x1F00(SPP).

  4. Connecting devices (pairing) Once devices have been found they can be connected via its 12-digit hex MAC address. for example a device with MAC address of abc2-ff-123458 enter ATDabc2ff123458 (ignore the – sign). When asked for pin code enter 0000.

  5. Change pin code
    • AT+BTKEY=digit Pin Code
    • To change pin code follow the procedure below.

    • then enter AT+BTKEY (ignore the = sign)

  6. Output current device class Output of SPP (serial port profile) 0x1f00

  7. Change Bluetooth device name AT+BTNAME = for name change

  8. Device Under Test (DUT) mode Under this mode the device is a “test” device and not suited for applications.

    Enter AT+BTDUT then ATZ (make sure is in slave mode) To get out of DUT mode enter AT+BTDUT one more time then ATZ

  9. Change Baudrate AT+BTUART,baudrate,parity_bit,stop_bit Example AT+BTUART,57600,n,1
