Com ports over bluetooth
Hi there,
We're trying to communicate with a PPC (O2 Orbit, windows mobile 5) using COM Ports over bluetooth which have done sucessfully, sending data in both directions. (VS2005 .netCF v2)
However, we're now trying to mointor the status of the RTS / CTS pin and although we can set it both ends, on the PPC end the status is not updated - does anyone have any suggestions?
We're using Bluetooth connecter from LM Technologies.
Thanks
Thanks for your reply - it's been very helpful in understanding why it's not working 
The reason we're trying to do this is to monitor the state of a serial pin on a very old device using a PDA - our plan was to wire the old device to the CTS pin on a bluetooth transmitter and monitor the signal across bluetooth using the virtual serial port connection.
Obviously this now won't work but does anyone have any suggestions as to how we might do it? Is there a piece of hardware we could but to take an on/off serial siganl and send it via bluetooth?
Thanks!
I like this kind of Things thanks for discuss this in the forum...could be helpfull for any
