I need to communicate between an embedded system and a Windows computer using
Bluetooth. I've got the embedded end under control, using a Pirani BT-serial
module. My problem is on the Windows end. I want to use a USB-BT module, like
the Linksys USBBT100. The Linksys module presents a virtual COM port for
Windows applications. My Windows application needs to run on an unattended
Windows computer in a factory environment, to receive data from my embedded
system and store it.
To test the feasibility of this approach, I have two computers. One has the
Linksys USB-BT module installed, and it will play the role of the host. The
other computer's serial port is connected to the Pirani module and it stands in
for the embedded system that will eventually be connected to the Pirani.
