Bluetooth connection to RS232 converter

[chas183 0]

Does anyone have a good recomendation for a serial bluetooth adapter? What I would like to accomplish is to download perameters to a Sick scanner from my laptop. Would a Bluetooth serial adapter at my DB9 (Laptop) be needed and another at the Sick? Is it possible to use the internal Bluetooth (Laptop) with a purchased serial to Bluetooth adapter? Currently looking at this device Iogear GBS301 Bluetooth Adapter Kindest Regards, Chas183

Promi have one - I use them with my Omron PLCs. You may need to check that there is 5VDC on the appropriate pin though to power the 232 side. Have had up to 7 PLCs connected while I was sitting out in the barbeque area of a client smoking and drinking coffee - no one had a clue what I was doing - good that way.

Do you have a part number or a place to purchase? Kindest Regards, Chas183

Omron sell them - I think it is the SD202 - good for 100 metres. You either need to plug in the power supply or have 5V on one of the pins. Here is a link to a manual. http://sena.com/download/manual/manual_promi_esd-v2.0.0.pdf
