GETTING TO KNOW YOUR RS232 SERIAL ADAPTER
1). RS232 Connector:
DTE - Connect to any DCE device (Master/such as a modem).
DCE - Connect to any DTE device (Slave/such as a PC).
2). Mode Button:
Push it to change operation between Configure/Data Mode and Reset function.
3). Apply power to Bluetooth RS232 Serial Adapter by using the power adapter
accompanied.
4). Set the slide switch position to right (toward 9-pin connector).
(Option: Set it to left position (away from 9-pin connector) features NO DC Power
Adapter is needed. A DC power must be applied to Bluetooth Adapter through pin-9 of
RS232 connector).
5). A one-to-one RS232 Extension Cable allows you to extend the connection if needed.
FUNCTION OF LED
POWER LED
Power LED turns on when POWER is applied to Bluetooth RS232 Serial Adapter.
BLUETOOTH LED
Bluetooth LED is flashing quickly when Bluetooth is paired and linked.
Bluetooth LED is blinking when there is data transmitted/received between two
paired and linked devices.

MODE LED
MODE LED is ON when RS232 Serial adapter is staying at Configuration mode.
MODE LED is OFF when RS232 Serial adapter is staying at normal DATA mode.
RS232 SERIAL ADAPTER INSTALLATION
HARDWARE INSTALLATION :
There are two kinds of RS232 devices in the market :
DTE - Data Terminal Equipment (such as a PC).
DCE - Data Communication Equipment (such as a Modem).
Depending on what kind of the RS232 device your RS232 Serial adapter is going to
connect, you can choose appropriate DTE or DCE RS232 Serial adapter to work with it.
At DCE device side :
Connect a DTE RS232 Serial Adapter to the remote DCE RS232 device (such as a Modem).
At DTE device side :
Connect a DCE RS232 Serial Adapter to any DTE device, such as a PC.
Take a remote Modem for example, you can connect it with a DTE RS232 Serial Adapter.
While at PC side, you can either connect a DCE RS232 Serial Adapter to it, or If no DCE
RS232 Serial Adapter is available, you can also connect a Bluetooth USB dongle to your
PC.
SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
Before you use your RS232 Serial Adapter as a Cable Replacement tool, you must
Pair it with another Bluetooth device first. There is a software RS232 Serial Adapter
Utility–Cable Replacement Config Tool.exe which must be run first to configure your
Bluetooth RS232 Serial Adapter.
The utility is to prepare the hardware parameters for pairing, they are :
● Baud Rate
● Stop Bits
● UART Parity
CONFIGURING BLUTOOTH SERIAL ADAPTER
All the Bluetooth RS232 Serial Adapters must be configured first before they can be
used. The purpose of configuration is to pair two Bluetooth devices for an exclusive
connection between them, and pairing is done by utilizing Bluetooth Address and PIN
code.
In this application, we will show you how to transfer files between two PCs by using
Hyper-Terminal program. Each PC has a DCE RS232 Serial Adapter attached, and we still
keep their pairing PIN code to be 0000.
1. Configuring RS232 Serial Adapter on PC 1:
Step 1: Connect a DCE RS232 Serial Adapter to COM1 Port of PC1. Apply power to it.
Step 2: Push Mode Button until the MODE LED lights, then it enters Configuration Mode.
Step 3: Launch RS232 Serial Adapter UtilityCable Replacement Config Tool.exe on PC1.
Step 4: Select COM1 Port which RS232 Serial Adapter
is connected.
We assume it is the first time you are
configuring this RS232 Serial Adapter, you
can choose the default Baud Rate: 115200
Press Connect Button.
Step 5: If it connects successfully, the yellow light
appears, if the connection fails, the red light
appears.
While the connection is done, Cable Replacement
Config Tool loads all of the setting from the RS232
Serial Adapter.
Step 6: Select Master, enter Bluetooth MAC
Address of Remote device which will be pairing
and connecting with; input PIN code “0000”.
Click ADVANCE to change UART Baud Rate,
Stop Bits and UART Parity.
Step 7: Select UART Baud Rate, Stop Bits and
UART Parity.
Press OK button
Then press SET button
2. Configuring Serial Adapter on PC 2:
Step 1: Connect a DCE Serial Adapter to COM1 Port of PC1. Apply power to it.
Step 2: Push Mode Button until the MODE LED lights,
then it enters Configuration Mode.
Step 3: Launch Serial Adapter UtilityCable Replacement Config Tool.exe on PC2.
Step 4: Select COM1 Port which Serial Adapter is
connected.
We assume it is the first time you are
configuring this Serial Adapter, you can choose
the default Baud Rate: 115200
Press Connect Button.
Step 5: If it connects successfully, the yellow light
appears, if the connection fails, the red light
appears.
While the connection is done, Cable
Replacement Config Tool loads all of the setting
from the Serial Adapter.
Step 6: Select Slave, enter Bluetooth MAC Address of
Remote device which will be pairing and
connecting with; input PIN code “0000”.
Click ADVANCE to change UART Baud Rate,
Stop Bits and UART Parity.
Step 7: Select UART Baud Rate, Stop Bits and
UART Parity
Press OK button
Then press SET button
RESET function
If you can’t connect successfully with default setting, please press Mode Button for 5
seconds, MODE LED will blink one time, then RESET is done.
