Bluetooth to Serial Adapter
Frequently Asked Questions
The Beagle Software
Bluetooth to
Serial Adapter allows you to use serial hardware with your Bluetooth
equipped laptop or desktop computer. Here are some answers to questions we get
asked:
Make sure that the software and adapter are using
the same COM port
Change the COM port number for software and
adapter
Look for a conflict with a another program or
device
Try a different program to verify adapter
functionality
Try installing the adapter on a different
computer
Does your adapter work on every computer?
In our experience the adapter works on a
majority of hardware for the supported operating systems. There are cases where the adapter will not work with
the existing hardware or software.
What if my serial device has a male
connector (with pins)?
Our adapter ships with a 9-pin male plug. This
is the same connector found on the back of computers with a serial port. If
your serial device also has a male plug then you need to use the supplied
9-pin
gender changer. This is a double ended female to female connector that will
allow you to plug your device into the adapter.
