bluetooth comunication with non labview device (cell phone)

[Xurde]

    Hello everybody,

my question is "simple" so I'll get to the point:

It is possible to make a Bluetooth conection between a labview program and another program in other device?


I want to send commands from a program in my cell phone (Pyhon) to my PC (labview), and I haven´t found information of how to do it.

If  answer == YES  {

How?;

Thanks;

}


else   {

I'm done...  ;

Thanks for saving me hours looking for the way to do it....

}

Hi Xurde,

it is possible if both components have bluetooth. Which part do you want to write (the labview side or the other one)? Did you check the provided LabView examples?

Hi Mike, and thanks for your help

I'd need to write both sides, but it'd be enought sending commands from the phone (programmed with java or python..) to the PC, labview.

I've checked the examples in labview, but they are about connecting 2 labview programs, and everything I've found is about the same, 2 PCs with labview, or 1 PC and 1 PDA with labview...  I've run the server bluetooth example and tried to discover the bluetooth with a simple program from my phone, and it discovered it but when connecting it crashes reporting an error.

Let me ask you something, when you said it is possible, are you sure? or it's you suppose it is possible?

I really need to first know if it's possible, so I'll not waste my time, this project is driving me crazy...


Thanks!

Somebody have any solution ?

I have the same problem...

I have a labview server bluetooth  and I need communication with the phone client based on java.

The person posted the question 2 years ago and is not a regular on the forum, so you may not get your answer.

It seems feasable, and I can't think of why it would not work.  However, I've never tried it so I cannot claim that it can be done.

If you do find out something, please post in this or a new thread.

Thanks!

We were able to succesffully communicate with BT printers using the LabVIEW BT primatives. However, we had to uninstall the deviceand adapter specific BT drivers before it would work. For example, if you are using a BT adapter on a PC you should remove its drivers. Leave the Windows default drivers installed.

Hi Dea Mark,

i have already done it and successfully able to discover devices, mobile phone and services using labview but unable to open BT connection with Mobile phone and also me dont know what and which format of text of files mobile (S40 platform) are able to accept and view. Kindly advise me accordingly. If you guys have some ready made VIs for communicating with Mobile Phones BT module kindly send on this platform.

Sorry I can't be of much assistance with cell phones. Our experiences with BT here is limited to printers.
