Hi,
this does not really fit this thread - but maybe i will just continue here as the setup is the same as before...?
I am just trying to connect to the same head i sucessfully connected wired before but now via Bluetooth on Mac:

- did set up a new connection to a new Bluetooth adaptor on the Macbook.
- connected to this adapter (i can see him in the System Profiler and in the System Preferences/Bluetooth with Status "connected").
- did the same "ls /dev" as before with the wired connection and got the name of the adaptor as "/dev/tty.SerialAdaptor-DevB-1" and pasted that into the SERIAL connection in Papywizard.

When i try to "connect to hardware" in Papywizard the adaptor status changes from "unconnected" to "connected". But: Papywizard does not get the connection going and times out...

Any idea what to try next?

Hi Frederic, no it is Papywizard v2.0.0-1.

Peter

Hmmm??? too fast :-) for me.

Could you try to use a terminal emulator,

I have iTerm running logged in as user now.

and connect to the serial port,

How do i do that?

after established the connection with the bluetooth device, and with the Merlin connected?

If you mean the Merlin connected with the BT adaptor - it is, yes.
If you mean the connection between BT adaptor and the Mac - it is also connected, yes.

Peter

PS: another thing to add maybe: to establish a connection between the adaptor and the Mac i have to click "connect to hardware" in Papywizard which tells me after a short time that it could not connect to the hardware and goes into simulation mode. My Mac is nevertheless telling me that it is STILL connected to the BT adaptor (which also has the LED status "ON"). When i quit Papywizard the connection is dropped and the LED on the BT adaptor is blinking again.

Hi Peter,

Could-you explain shortly the connections from your Mac and the Merlin ?
Mac -> Bluetooth (internal or external, if external Model ?)-> Bluetooth (Model ?) -> Merlin ....

Those are important info's for helping you !

Thanks

Hi Peter, .... (Frederic and Andrew)

This will help of course !

This BT adaptor from Andreas Böhme is excellent, I have one in test at this moment and , "big secret", it will probably become "the reference" for PapyMerlin in Europe after some modifications that Andreas and myself are discussing at this moment !

But, as such, without configuration, it could not work for Papywizard !!! AND THIS IS PROBABLY THE REASON OF NOT WORKING ( to Frederic !)

Some of the reasons are:
- Baud rate at 19500, PapyMerlin need 9600 !
- Should be connected to a 5V power supply, and Papywizard deliver 12 Volts ... YOU COULD BURN THE MODULE IF CONNECTED DIRECTLY !!!

Other reasons exist but are not so important !

What I suggest to you, if you don't have yet done the configuration (or burned the module ! ) , is to wait that I come with the results and recommandations of my study ... Next week ,this will be posted in the forum ! And in principle, without major issues, Andreas will produce a first serie of 10 "preserie" pieces strictly adapted to PapyMerlin... let us say that those modules will be availlable within approximatively 3 weeks, but I want send one "pre-serie" to Frederic and one to Andrew for "green light" !

Don´t panic :-)

I ordered this little device for  some extra Euros with the following modifications:

- set to slave
- set to 9600 Baud
- directly connectable to 12V

So - that should not be the problem.

Peter

No - i know i did not "panic" - just kidding...

Do you have any idea where to look why this is not working correctly?
I assume you are just busy with that - maybe i could help with a "Real world test" somehow?

I can't seem to find any reference to this Bluetooth adapter.  Is there any place to find out more about it?
