RS-232 SERIAL ADAPTER
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 RS-232 Serial Adapter is going to
connect, you can choose appropriate DTE or DCE RS-232 Serial Adapter to work with it.
At DCE device side :
Connect a DTE RS-232 Serial Adapter to the remote DCE RS232 device (such as a Modem).
At DTE device side :
Connect a DCE RS-232 Serial Adapter to any DTE device, such as a PC.
Take a remote Modem for example, you can connect it with a DTE RS-232 Serial Adapter.
While at PC side, you can either connect a DCE RS-232 Serial Adapter to it, or If no DCE
RS-232 Serial Adapter is available, you can also connect a Bluetooth USB dongle to your
PC.
SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
Before you use your RS-232 Serial Adapter as a Cable Replacement tool, you must
Pair it with another Bluetooth device first. There is a software RS-232 Serial Adapter
Utility–Cable Replacement Config Tool.exe which must be run first to configure your
Bluetooth RS-232 Serial Adapter.
The utility is to prepare the hardware parameters for pairing, they are :
● Baud Rate
● Stop Bits
● UART Parity
CONFIGURING RS-232 SERIAL ADAPTER
All the RS-232 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 RS-232 Serial Adapter attached, and we still
keep their pairing PIN code to be 0000.
1. Local Setting Up
1.1 Configuring RS-232 Serial Adapter on PC 1:
Step 1: Connect a DCE RS-232 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 RS-232 Serial Adapter UtilityCable Replacement Config Tool.exe on PC1.
Step 4: Select COM1 Port which RS-232 Serial Adapter is
connected.
We assume it is the first time you are
configuring this RS-232 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 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
1.2. Configuring RS-232 Serial Adapter on PC 2:
Step 1: Connect a DCE RS-232 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 RS-232 Serial Adapter UtilityCable Replacement Config Tool.exe on PC2.
Step 4: Select COM1 Port which RS-232 Serial Adapter is
connected.
We assume it is the first time you are
configuring this RS-232 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 RS-232 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
1.3 Automatic Connection :
Press Close button.
Remove your RS-232 Serial Adapter from PC COM port, and connect it to a RS232
device.
Now, automatic connection will begin. If configured at Master state, RS-232 Serial
Adapter will scan its neighborhood to see if there is any Bluetooth device which has the
matched MAC address and PIN code. If found, they will establish the wireless link
automatically, and Bluetooth LED (blue color) of RS-232 Serial Adapter will light. If
configured at Slave state, RS-232 Serial Adapter will wait for other Bluetooth device to
create a link with it.
1.4 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.
2. START HYPER TERMINAL FILE TRANSFER :
On PC1 :
Step 1 :
Click Start.
Select Program.
Select Accessories.
Select Communications.
Select HyperTerminal.
Enter “TestBT” as the project name.
Press OK.
Step 2 :
Choose COM1, because Serial
Adapter 1 is connected to COM1 port of PC1.
Press OK.
Step 3 :
Configuring RS-232 Serial Adapter on PC1.
Please select “Hardware” Flow Control.
Press OK.
Step 4 :
On PC2 : Repeat the same steps as done on PC1 from
Step 1 to Step 3.
Step 5 :
On PC1, click Transfer on toolbar,
click Send File.
Step 6 :
Browse the file you want to transfer,
then click Send.
10
Now, you will find transferring file using Bluetooth
wireless technology is just like transferring file
using a hardwired cable. Bluetooth RS-232 Serial
Adapter
is the best tool to relieve your life in a cable
surrounded environment. You can easily connect a
RS232 modem at a remote side, it then is
reachable within 100 meters (free space) in your
office or home by using Bluetooth Cable
Replacement technology.

TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Sympton :
Push MODE button can not get into Configuration mode.
Answer :
Turn off the power of RS-232 Serial Adapter, remove it from your RS232 device, apply
power to it, and try again (like a hardware RESET).
2. Sympton :
Data is not correctly set and saved.
Answer :
1. Check if it is staying at Configuration mode.
2. If it is in local setting up, check if settings of connecting COM port and Baud Rate are
correct.
3. If it is in remote setting up, check if its connecting virtual COM port is correct.
3. Sympton :
In DATA mode, automatic link can not be established.
Answer :
1. Check if remore MAC address is set correctly.
2. Check if PIN code is set to the same.
3. Repeat the pairing processes. That is, repeat the configuration processes for two
devices again to make sure nothing wrong was done.
4. Sympton :
Configuration is OK, but automatic link can not be established.
Answer :
Turn off the power of RS-232 Serial Adapter, remove it from your RS232 device, apply
power to it, and try again (like a hardware RESET). For a Master RS-232 Serial Adapter, it
keeps sending a linking request to find another Slave device, while a Slave RS-232 Serial
Adapter is waiting to receive any linking request. If you configure both two RS-232 Serial
Adapters to
all Master states, or to all Slave states, then they can not link together. Bluetooth
Dongle is staying at Master or Slave state randomly, in a moment, it acts as a Master
device and sends linking request wirelessly, while in another moment, it acts as a Slave
device and is waiting for other Master devices to link with it. Once the link is built, it
12
will stay at the proper mode which it should be.
5. Sympton :
Garbage code is received.
Answer :
Wrong RS232 parameters were set, such as baud rate or parity bit. Configure your RS-232
Serial Adapter to a correct setting again.
6. Sympton :
Mass data transmission will stop midway or receive garbage code.
Answer :
Please select “Hardware” in flow control setting.
7. Sympton :
Can not connect the RS-232 Serial Adapter when in Remore Setting Up.
Answer :
Check to see if RS-232 Serial Adapter is staying at DATA mode. If YES, please disconnect
its link first. This can be done by turning off the power of another Bluetooth device
which this RS-232 Serial Adapter is linked with. Turn off power of RS-232 Serial Adapter,
then turn it on. Push MODE button to get into Configuration mode.
8. Sympton :
Want to reconfgure RS-232 Serial Adapter, but forgot its previous baud rate setting.
Answer :
Turn off power of RS-232 Serial Adapter, then turn it on. Push MODE button immediately
before it automatically links with other Bluetooth device (i.e. let the link NOT be built).
At this moment, baud rate is defaultly set to 115200, you then can use this baud rate to
get into Configuration mode.
9. Sympton :
Which mode RS-232 Serial Adapter is staying when in Configuration state?
Answer :
In Configuration state, it is always staying at Slave mode. The diffenence between
Master and Slave modes only exists in DATA state.
