attached.

5. Connecting to/from BL-521 over Bluetooth.

There are 3 ways BL-521 can be connected vi a Bluetooth.

a) Client/Server Pair: 2 BL-521’s, configured to perform a “true” cable replacement.

b) Server: Connecting TO BL-521 from a remote Bluetooth device (Factory Default)

c) Client: BL-521 is the Bluetooth device which initiates the connection

This section details all 3 methods.

5.1. “Cable Replacement”

One of the strongest features of BL-521 is that 2 of them can be configured to connect to each other and thus

behave almost exactly as a cable. This configuration is very straightforward and is detailed below.

For BL-521’s to connect as a pair, one of the devices needs to be configured as a client device, and one as a

server. As the factory settings for BL-521 are “Server” it follows then that only 1 of the BL-521 pair needs any

alternate configuration from that supplied.

It is advisable that you first configure the communications settings for each BL-521 so that they are suitable for the

devices into which you are plugging them. When configuring a pair of BL-521’s the Communications parameters

(e.g. baud rate) of each BL-521 do not have to match each other’s, only that of the devices into which they are

connected.

Each BL-521 has a unique Bluetooth Address (BD_ADDR). This is printed on a label on the base of every product,

but is also accessible from the “View Current Settings” menu detailed above.
