The serial RS-232 Interface is still very popular and thanks to the worldwide standards used in almost any industrial control and automation device, sensors, robotics a.s.o. , but cables are limiting the users freedom of movement or makes some special tasks impossible. This is where Bluetooth is the perfect wireless solution to get rid of disturbing cables. The BlueSerial Bluetooth adapters are active devices with integrated processors and could be used as a true RS-232 cable replacement solution after a one-time setup and pairing between two or more Bluetooth enabled devices. The BlueSerial adapters and OEM modules are working independant of any operating system and no software is necessary to connect even “dumb” devices such as sensors, measurement devices, automation controls a.s.o.

The BlueSerial adapters are perfect for industrial, medical or automotive applications within building controls, measurement devices, embedded systems, robotics a.s.o. The reliable and low power consuming wireless connection allows a RS-232 cable replacement with ranges up to 3.000 ft. and more depending of the Bluetooth radio Class (1 or 2) and the antennas used.

Because of the low radiation and highest security in data transfer, Bluetooth may be used in mediacl applications as well. The standard BlueSerial adapter comes in a matchbox sized plastic enclosure with a 9-Pin Sub-D RS-232 connector. The power could be supplied through Pin 9 from the connected device itself or using the power connector on the rear side together with a wall plug, a USB power adapter cable or a keyboard adapter cable. The power can be injected through a special RS-232 cable as well that offers a power connector for a wall plug supporting Pin 9 with the necessary power.

Another power option is using the BlueSerial adapters with integrated, rechargeable NiMH battery that lasts a working day without recharging. All our serial Bluetooth adapters and modules do not need any device driver software. After a one time setup procedure, the adapters are connecting to the paired devices immediate after power up.

BlueSerial RS-232 Bluetooth adapters and OEM modules

The BlueSerial Bluetooth adapters can be used for easy, wirless connections between any device with RS-232 interface. Using a PC, notebook or PDA, USB, PCI or PCMCIA / PC-Card Bluetooth adapters can be used as well using virtual COM ports and several simultanious wireless connections. No other serial Bluetooth adapter offers the same features as the BlueSerial versions for more comfort and easy setup: Automatic detection of the connected device and pinout of the RX / TX signals. The BlueSerial adapters can be used with or without handshake so they can replace simple 2 or 3 wire connections. The one-time-configuration can be done using the wireless Bluetooth connection without any preconfiguration as well. The adapters are available in a compact plastic enclosure with or without a rechargeable battery inside or as a small sized OEM board with 9pin SUB-D or PCB mount MicroMatch connector. The versions with built in battery can supply power to connected low power devices such as sensors as well.
