This will display a serial port service called “Serial 01”
Double clicking this service (or right clicking and selecting the “connect” option), will create a COM port style
connection to the BL-521.
The screen shot below shows that the port in our example here is listed as COM25, although yours will most
likely be a much lower number than this.
This “COM” port is now available for any application to use to communicate with your device, or in our case, the
oscilloscope.
5.2.4. Connect your application to the COM port
In our initial testing at our labs, we used the HyperTerminal application included in Windows to open COM10.
Setting HyperTerminal to save data to a file called screen.bmp, and activating the hardcopy feature of the
oscilloscope, caused all data to be sent from the scope to the file as listed. This file could then be viewed using
any picture editing software and displays an exact screen copy of the oscilloscope. Instructions for using
HyperTerminal can be found in section 2.1 above
5.3. Client: BL-521 is the Bluetooth device which initiates the connection
The instructions in the above section for creating a “cable replacement” connection should be followed to place the
BL-521 into Client Mode in order to initiate a connection to a remote device.
