Hi all,
I am writing a simple bluetooth test to test 15 devices at a time. I am able to write vi's to query all the devices present and other simple vi's. Here is my problem though.......
I program each device under test with a temporary bluetooth address (00:00:00:00:00:01 through 00:00:00:00:00:0F). Then I assign a random name to the device. All I want to do is to query the specific address (i.e. 00:00:00:00:00:02) and compare the name I programmed it with the name I read from it.
I can't figure out an easy way to do this. Since their can be 15+ BT addresses floating around, I want to only locate that specific unit by address. I can't seem to figure out how to do that. I've put about 6 hours into this and I am getting nowhere.
I just want to clarify that the comparison portion isn't a problem, it is submitting the BT address and receiving the name back.
Please help,
Ryan

Hi Ryan,
Are you having trouble connecting to a device that has a specific address? If so, then I believe you would just use the Open Connection VI with the address that you're looking for. I'm not extremely familiar with Bluetooth commands, so I'm not sure which one will retrieve the name, but I imagine it's similar to the one that will change it.
