bluetooth project

[kudamushedhe]

i am working on a project i have to do simulation on labview using bluetooth comunication i have managed to add bluetooth device and located it using my computer,but on labview i dont know how to go about it .

my project is to simulate angle changes of human arm in labview using wireless comunication,everything on my master side is fine, i am using arduino uno and bluetooth shield(labview will me my slave) ,all i need in labview is to show the chnges in angles reading from my blueetoth device ,i am using a bluetooth dongle and windows 7 and i have installed the hyperterminal.exe from windows xp disks.

Afaik, LabVIEW will always be considered a master when using LIFA.  LabVIEW controls the Arduino, not the other way around.  LIFA requires a serial port for communication.  Also, if the Bluetooth shield requires special Arduino code to work then you cannot use LIFA for it.  You would have to create custom LabVIEW code for your application.

hi nathan

on the above mentioned project i am suppose to view the change in voltage values in labview, i have worked with my arduino uno and bluetooth shield and i can send the voltage values to the computer 2m away and viewing them on hyperterminal so now i want these values to appear in labview.

So what is your question?

hi nathan

my problem is everytime i try to discover my bluetooth shield i get this message

Error 59 occurred at Bluetooth Create Listener in BT search.vi

Possible reason(s):

LabVIEW:  The network is down, unreachable, or has been reset.

I've never used Bluetooth with Arduino but LIFA is designed to use a serial port.  Therefore, the device must be registered by the system device monitor as a serial COM port.  LabVIEW, when using LIFA, will not need any Bluetooth VIs.  If somebody else knows otherwise, let us know.

effectively, for example if a Bluetooth device is installed in the rodenador, after installing the controladore creates a COM port in the device manager of the system, use the following computer transmitting device (master)

then we emperejar devices when I did this link Use the next device in the receiver (slave)

when they are matched, since we configure the control labview VISA COM port with the transmitter
