Interfacing Bluebee with PC

Postby sssk30 » Sat Mar 21, 2015 1:25 pm

Hi there, I am making a wireless and portable gait monitoring system using bluetooth as its main communication method. The bluebee would be placed on the transmitter end while the PC would be using reading the results from its build-in bluetooth.

Components for Transmitter end
1) SN-IMU5D-LC
2) SKXBee
3) Bluebee
4) BBfuino

Using these components, is it possible for me to read and capture value from the serial port itself?
As for wired connection to my laptop I am able to capture and save serial port value using coolterm.

Hi sssk30.

Yes, it is possible. Once you paired the bluetooth, you should get the bluetooth COM port.

I followed the example from this link http://tutorial.cytron.com.my/2014/05/07/uploading-arduino-sketch-to-bbfuino-via-bluebee/ however, I am not able to get the bluebee device to work.

When i plug in my SKXBee to my laptop, this is what i see Image

It comes in as other devices. Is there a way to change this?

It seem you did not install the USB driver for SKXBee, please refer to the User's Manual of SKXBee.
