Attempting to connect to Bluetooth device

[cirrusio]

Hello all,

I have limited (read "no") experience with attempting to connect to Bluetooth devices using Labview.  What I have here is a pulse oximeter (Nonin 9560) that measures a patients pulse ox and heart rate.  This data is transmitted via Bluetooth. 

So, I am not really clear on how exactly to connect this device.  I am able to search for and discover the device using the "Bluetooth Discover" VI.  This properly returns the address of the device.  I have even been able to "Bluetooth RFCOMM Search Discovery" VI to obtain a UUID using the address obtained from the discover function.  However, even with all of this information, I have been unable to use the "Bluetooth Open Connection" to open a connection to the device with this information.  The connect function simply returned error 54 - an ill-formed address.

On the hardware side, I am using a Rocketfish Micro Bluetooth Adapter on a Dell Lattitude E6320 using Labview 2012.  Any help or suggestions would be useful.

Thanks, Matt

Hi Matt, 

      If you haven't already, I would recommend checking out the Bluetooth examples included with LabVIEW as they can be a good place to begin.

If you have seen the examples, double check that your system has all of the requirements necessary for Bluetooth communication in LabVIEW.

This guide might also provide some useful information to help you get started: How Do I Make a Bluetooth Device Work with LabVIEW?
