Examples

Example Program that configures a HC05 / HC06 Bluetooth module and then allows a data connection to be established and utilised.

Incoming data will be displayed on an LCD.

Outgoing data is assigned and sent using a keypad component. HC05 Example

Macro reference

	SetPairKey
Sets the Bluetooth pair key stored in the Bluetooth module's ROM. Commands must be sent before Bluetooth communications are estabished e.g. right after power on and initialisation.
- STRING	Key
Four digit pair key e.g. "0000" or "1234"
- VOID	Return

	SendString
Sends out a string of bytes from the UART interface.
- STRING	Data

- VOID	Return

	SendCommand
Sends a command string to the HC05/HC06 module.
- STRING	Command

- VOID	Return

	SetBaud
Sets the Bluetooth baud rate stored in the Bluetooth module's ROM. Commands must be sent before Bluetooth communications are estabished e.g. right after power on and initialisation.
- BYTE	Baud
1=1200, 2=2400, 3=4800, 4=9600, 5=19200, 6=NA, 7=38400, 8=57600, 9=115200
- VOID	Return

	SendNumber
Sends out a number as an ASCII String from the UART interface.
[[File:]] -	Number

- VOID	Return

	SendChar
Sends out a single packet from the UART interface.
- INT	Char

- VOID	Return

	SetName
Sets the Bluetooth Friendly name stored in the Bluetooth module's ROM. Commands must be sent before Bluetooth communications are estabished e.g. right after power on and initialisation.
- STRING	Name
Name you wish to provide to the module
- VOID	Return

	ReceiveString
Attempts to receive a string of bytes from the UART interface.
- BYTE	Timeout

- BYTE	NumBytes

- STRING	Return

	Initialise
Sets up the RS232 peripheral, must be called at the start of your program or at least before you start calling any other RS232 macros.
- VOID	Return

	ReceiveChar
Attempts to receive a single packet from the UART interface.
- INT	Timeout
Time to wait for valid data before returning, 0=Dont wait, 255=Wait forever.
- INT	Return

Property reference

	Properties
	Comms Settings
	Data Bits
Number of data bits
	Return
Return data width from Receive macro. 8-bit data mode always returns a byte ranging from 0-255, 255 could mean a timeout or could be a valid data. 16-bit data mode rereturns 0-255 for valid data, 256 for a timeout, return data must be stored into an INT or UINT variable.
	Echo
Echo selection
	Baud Options
Baud rate option selector
	Baud Rate

	Connections
	Channel
UART Channel selector Software channels are bit banged using generic I/O pins but are not as reliable as hardware channels. Hardware channels use the selected peripheral on-board the target microcontroller.
	Use TX
Selects if the Transmit pin is used by the component. Yes: The TX pin is active and used to transmit data for the UART. No: The TX pin is disabled and free to be used as general I/O.
	TX
Pin to be used for Transmit data
	Use RX
Selects if the Receive pin is used by the component. Yes: The RX pin is active and used to receive data for the UART. No: The RX pin is disabled and free to be used as general I/O.
	RX
Pin to be used for Receive data
	Use Flow Control
Flow Control (Handshake) enable or disable. On: Two I/O pins are used to control the flow of data in and out of the device. Off: Flow control is disabled.
	Simulation
	Label
Textual label shown on the component I/O flasher
	Scope Traces
Selects if the scope traces are automatically added to the data recorder window or not. Simulation - draws an approximation of the UART data onto the scope trace. ICT - sets up the scope trace for incoming data and adds UART packet decoding at the correct BAUD.
	Console Data
Selects if the console data is automatically generated or not
	Console Columns
Number of characters that can be displayed on a single line of the console.
	Data Source
Simulation data source used to allow the component to connect to various remote devices Nothing - Simulation data is ignored COM port - Routes the communication data to and from a physical or virtual COM port API - Routes the communication data via a data injector component on the Panel.
