Serial Port Bluetooth Module

Introduction


This module is an easy to use Bluetooth SPP (Serial Port Protocol) module, designed for transparent wireless serial connections.

The Serial port Bluetooth module is fully qualified Bluetooth V2.0+EDR (Enhanced Data Rate) 3Mbps Modulation with complete 2.4GHz radio transceiver and baseband. It uses CSR Bluecore 04-External single chip Bluetooth system with CMOS technology and with AFH(Adaptive Frequency Hopping Feature). It has a footprint as small as 12.7mmx27mm. Hopefully it will simplify your overall design/development cycle.

Model: WBT20101B

Features


Hardware features

  • Typical -80dBm sensitivity
  • Up to +4dBm RF transmit power
  • Low Power 1.8V Operation ,1.8 to 3.6V I/O
  • PIO control
  • UART interface with programmable baud rate
  • Integrated antenna
  • Edge connector

Software features

  • Default Baud rate: 38400, Data bits:8, Stop bit:1,Parity:No parity, Data control: yes. Supported baud rate:

9600,19200,38400,57600,115200,230400,460800.

  • Use CTS and RTS to control data stream.
  • Given a rising pulse in PIO0, device will be disconnected.
  • Status instruction port PIO1: low-disconnected, high-connected;
  • PIO10 and PIO11 can be connected to red and blue LED separately. When master and slave are paired, red

and blue led blinks 1time/2s in interval. While disconnected only blue led blinks 2times/s.

  • Auto-connects to the last device on power as default.
  • Permits pairing device to connect as default.
  • Auto-pairing PINCODE:”0000” as default
  • Auto-reconnect in 30 min when disconnected as a result of beyond the range of connection.

Application Ideas


  • Remote controller
  • Wireless communication

Cautions


  • While using with Crowduino/ Arduino, set the operation voltage to 5V. Else use a proper logic level converter.
  • While using with USBSerial Adapter, set the operation voltage to 5V
  • Command to change baud rate is persistent even after reset. Hence remember the baud rate for next use.

Commands to change default configuration

1. Set working MODE

\r\n+STWMOD=0\r\n Set device working mode as client (slave). Save and Rest.
\r\n+STWMOD=1\r\n Set device working mode as server (master). Save and Rest.

Note: \r\n is necessary for operation and the value of are 0x0D 0x0A in Hex. \r and \n represent carriage-return and line-feed(or next line),

2.Set BAUDRATE

\r\n+STBD=115200\r\n Set baudrate 115200. Save and Rest.
Supported baudrate: 9600, 19200,38400,57600,115200,230400,460800.

3. Set Device NAME

\r\n+STNA=abcdefg Set device name as “abcdefg”. Save and Rest.

4. Auto-connect the last paired device on power

\r\n+STAUTO=0\r\n Auto-connect forbidden. Save and Rest.
\r\n+STAUTO=1\r\n Permit Auto-connect. Save and Rest.

5. Permit Paired device to connect me

\r\n+STOAUT=0\r\n Forbidden. Save and Rest.
\r\n+STOAUT=1\r\n Permit. Save and Rest.

6. Set PINCODE

\r\n +STPIN=2222\r\n Set pincode “2222”, Save and Rest.

7. Delete PINCODE(input PINCODE by MCU)

\r\n+DLPIN\r\n Delete pincode. Save and Rest.

8. Read local ADDRESS CODE

\r\n+RTADDR\r\n Return address of the device.

9. Auto-reconnecting when master device is beyond the valid range (slave device will auto-reconnect in 30 min when it is beyond the valid range)

\r\n+LOSSRECONN=0\r\n Forbid auto-reconnecting.
\r\n+LOSSRECONN=1\r\n Permit auto-reconnecting.

Commands for Normal Operation:

1. Inquire

a) Master
\r\n+INQ=0\r\n
\r\n+INQ=1\r\n
b) Slave
\r\n+INQ=0\r\n
\r\n+INQ=1\r\n

When +INQ=1 command is successful, the red and green LEDS blink alternatively.

2. Bluetooth module returns inquiring result

\r\n+RTINQ=aa,bb,cc,dd,ee,ff;name\r\n Serial Bluetooth device with the address “aa,bb,cc,dd,ee,ff” and the name “name” is inquired

3. Connect device

\r\n+CONN=aa,bb,cc,dd,ee,ff\r\n Connect to a device with address of "aa,bb,cc,dd,ee,ff”

4. Bluetooth module requests inputting PINCODE

\r\n+INPIN\r\n

5. Input PINCODE

\r\n+RTPIN=code\r\n
Example: RTPIN=0000

6. Disconnect device Pulling PIO0 high will disconnect current working Bluetooth device.

7. Return status \r\n+BTSTA:xx\r\n xx status:

  • 0 - Initializing
  • 1 - Ready
  • 2 - Inquiring
  • 3 - Connecting
  • 4 - Connected

(Note: This is not a command, but the information returned from the module after every command)
