1. About Parani-MSP™

Parani-MSP™ is a Bluetooth-wireless multiple serial server for minimum 7 to maximum

14 devices; an option to conventional multi-serial ports. Wireless Parani-MSP™ results

in dramatic installation cost and time savings.

With Parani-SD™ installed at RS-232 interfaced terminals, Parani-MSP™ affords

dependable convenience for a variety of serial communications environments.

Refer to the figure 1.1. below:

<Fig. 1.1>

Parani-MSP™ has Bluetooth protocol stack qualified by Bluetooth SIG, which assures

standardized, secure and scaleable serial communications. Parani-MSP™ identification of

data, per each additional unique Bluetooth SPP enabled device address, prevents data

jam.

Bluetooth’s 2.4GHz frequency-hopping system is resilient to RF interference from

sources such as Wireless LAN. Increased communications security is possible via

optional user set-up authentication.

Parani-MSP™ transmits data from each Bluetooth devices to Host PC via TCP/IP

Ethernet. Host PC also responds to each Bluetooth devices wirelessly via Parani-MSP™.

Non-TCP/IP legacy serial applications can make use of Parani-MSP™ without any

5

modification to the application in thanks to the COM port redirector software, such as

(Parani-MSP installed remotely may not be listed even though pressing “Search MSP

device” button)

Please select one Parani-MSP you would like to access and press “Connect” button.”

22

You will need to enter UserID/Password: adm in/11111

3.1.2 Operation Mode

Parani-MSP may be set to different type of Mode, so users may select one for its own

implementation. There are 6 types of Mode: Server, Client, Vertex, Repeater, Serial Hub,

and RS232.

z MSP Operation Mode

This shows current type of Mode.

23

z Mode Change

Users may change and select the type of Operation mode.

z Search Parani-MSP

Users may search Parani-MSP on the same network. Firewall installed on PC may

prevent Host PC from searching Parani-MSP.

a) Server Mode

In Sever Mode, Parani-MSP will operate as a TCP server on the network. Host PC will

connect to Parani-MSP via TCP/IP Ethernet, and Parani-MSP get the connection. After

connection, full duplexing is possible.

Users may adjust the TCP port number where Parani-MSP waits for the connection

from Host PC.

*Note: While Bluetooth devices are connected to Parani-MSP, mode change is

not allowed.

24

z Default Data Port

If unregistered device tries to connect to Parani-MSP, Parani-MSP will assign the port

number consecutively from default data port number (5000).

z KeepAlive Timeout

When TCP connection is stalled unexpectedly (Ex. Power off of Host PC), Parani-MSP

will send beacons during KeepAlive Timeout (second). If there is no response during

this Timeout, TCP connection will be closed.

z Do not disconnect TCP socket

In Server Mode, each TCP connection and Bluetooth connection will be matched as

point-to-point. When new Bluetooth connection is established, new TCP connection will

be established as well.

So, when Bluetooth connection is stopped, TCP connection would be closed.

If this behavior annoys your application, users may use this option. With this option

enabled, TCP network connection remains established regardless of Bluetooth

connection.

z Register Bluetooth Device :

Shows the Bluetooth devices registered.

z Add : Add Bluetooth device to register.

z Delete : Remove Bluetooth device registered.

z Modify : Modify Port of the selected device.

b) Client Mode

In Client Mode, Parani-MSP will act as a TCP client. When a Bluetooth device connects

to Parani-MSP, Parani-MSP will try to connect to the designated Host PC. So, Host PC

should be TCP server.

In Client Mode, please select the IP address and port number of the Host PC to connect.

25

Select “Advanced Configuration” button.

Here, users may configure which Bluetooth device will connect to which Host as they

need.

Server Table has priority over default Host Information.

Bluetooth device “00:0B:53:20:00:7E” will connect to Host “192.168.1.118”, port no. 5002.

Bluetooth device “00:0B:53:20:00:74” will connect to Host “192.168.1.200”, port no. 5004.

Bluetooth devices, which are not configured to connect to a specific Host, will connect to Default

Host in Host information.

For Parani-MSP™ Vertex port no. entry.

z Max Number of Connections

For entering the number of Hosts connectable to Parani-MSP™ concurrently.

d) Repeater Mode

27

In Repeater Mode, Parani-MSP will act as a Repeater to expand the coverage of

existing Parani-MSP. Let’s call the Parani-MSP which will act as Repeater, “Repeater”,

and call the Parani-MSP of normal operation as “Station”.

In Repeater Mode, the Bluetooth address of the Station is all you need to configure.

When Repeater is trying to connect to the Station, Status LED of Repeater is blinking.

Repeater and Bluetooth devices connected to the repeater are displayed in ‘Repeater’

tab in software.

e) Serial Hub Mode

Users may transmit/receive data via Parani-MSP in Serial Hub mode (Serial Hub).

Parani-MSP in serial hub mode relay the data from a Bluetooth device to another

Bluetooth device connected to Parani-MSP. No network host is involved.

Users may configure Parani-MSP how to handle data from Bluetooth devices in

advanced configuration of Parani-MSP software.

Note:

When using repeater, overall data throughput can be lowered.

Multi-level repeater is not allowed.

28

Routing table shows paths that data will follow. Arrow shows direction of data flow. In

the above example, data coming from 00:0B:53:16:21:4C will be sent to

00:0B:53:12:09:F3 and 00:0B:53:16:11:CB and data coming from 00:0B:53:16:11:CB

will be sent 00:0B:53:16:21:4C in the reverse direction, but data coming from

00:0B:53:12:09:F3 will be dismissed because it has no path in the route table.

Press Add to add route entry. Following dialog will appear.

To select Bluetooth device, press ‘…’, then Bluetooth devices connected currently will

be displayed in another dialog or enter bluetooth device address manually.

If you mark checkbox, opposite direction route will be also registered.

f) RS232 Mode1

In RS232 Mode, Parani-MSP may communicate with other Bluetooth device via RS232

serial cable.

As RS232 port has been configured to be used as Configuration as factory setting,

users need to change the switch on the left side of Parani-MSP to data communication

mode.

1 Available only with Parani-MSP100.

29

If you enable AT command interface in RS232 configuration console, AT commands

which are compatible with Parani-SD can be used with Parani-MSP. Please refer

Parani-MSP AT command list.

Bluetooth Friendly Names of only ever-connected devices will be appeared.

Otherwise ‘<< Unknown >>’ will be shown instead.

3.1.6 Repeater

This page shows tree-structure how Repeater MSP and terminal devices are

connected to the Station MSP. If user’s MSP is in Repeater Mode, nothing will be

showed.

In the window below, Repeater MSP is connected to a Station MSP and a Parani-SD

is connected to Repeater (00:0B:53:20:00:19).

32

3.1.7 MSP information

Users may see Parani-MSP information currently accessing.

33

Pressing ‘Log’ button, system log messages will appear in notepad. System log is the

source of invaluable information when the problems occur during operation.

34

4. Operation Mode

With Parani-MSP™, users may configure the mode of operation to meet each application.

Total 6 kinds of different modes can be selected. By selecting the appropriate mode, users may

minimize cost and time for developing new solution.

4.1 Server Mode

In Server Mode, Parani-MSP will act as TCP server. If a Bluetooth device is connected to

Parani-MSP, corresponding TCP port for the Bluetooth device will wait for connection for as

Host. The Host may connect to the terminal via this port of Parani-MSP.

Please refer to the drawing below for your better understanding.

<Fig. 4.1> Server Mode

If a Bluetooth device has been registered to Parani-MSP, the Bluetooth device will communicate

with client host via the designated port at Parani-MSP.

If not registered, Parani-MSP will assign arbitrary port number to connect.

Pre-registered Bluetooth devices are distinguishable by the different port numbers at Parani-

MSP.

Bluetooth Terminals

35

4.2 Client Mode

In a Client mode, Parani-MSP™ will act as a “TCP client”.

When a Bluetooth device connects to Parani-MSP, Parani-MSP will send TCP connection

request to the designated Host. Once TCP connection is established, Bluetooth devices and a

Host may communicate via Parani-MSP, same as in Server mode.

Only difference from Server mode is that the initiator is now Parani-MSP. Please refer to the

drawing below for your better understanding.

Fig. 4.2 Client Mode

4.3 Vertex Mode

Vertex Mode is similar to Server Mode. Only difference is that, in Vertex Mode, data from a Host

are sent to all of connected Bluetooth devices, like Multi-drop. This mode can be a replacement

of RS485/RS422 multi-drop.

Fig. 1.3.1 Vertex Mode

Bluetooth Terminals

36

Default data port number in Vertex mode is 3000. If you need to use other port number, please

change the configuration using Parani-MSP software->Advanced configuration.

4.4 Repeater Mode

Parani-MSP in Repeater Mode can be used to function as a Repeater to extend the range of

Bluetooth network or avoid obstacles between Parani-MSP and Bluetooth devices. Please refer

to the drawing below.

Multiple Repeater Parani-MSPs up to 7 can be connected to one Station Parani-MSP, but

Repeater-to-Repeater connection (Multi-level repeater) is not allowed. Parani-MSP may operate

as “Station MSP” while it is either Server/Client/Vertex/Serial Hub/RS232 mode.

All you need to configure in Repeater is only Bluetooth device address of Station MSP and

repeater doesn’t need to have any network connectivity (Just power-supply).

Note:

When using repeater, overall data throughput can be lowered.

Multi-level repeater is not allowed.

4.5 Serial Hub Mode

In Serial Hub Mode, Parani-MSP relays data communication between Bluetooth devices. With

Parani-SD only 1:1 cable replacement is possible, however, incorporating Parani-MSP multiple

Parani-SDs can communicate each other, 1:N multi-serial with Parani-SD.

In Serial Hub mode, Parani-MSP handles data according to Route Table, which shows which

data frame should go where. Route Table needs to be configured in advance using Parani-MSP

software.

In-Band Command

In addition to Route Table, user can specify the destination of the frame they send by inserting

extra frame called ‘In-Band Command’. Inserted frame will be processed by Parani-MSP and

not be transferred to destination device.

**INI+DST,<dst1>,<dst2>,…**

where, dstX means Bluetooth address of destination.

ex)

**INI+DST,00:0B:53:10:00:8A**Hello**INI+DST,00:0B:53:10:00:8B,00:0B:53:10:00:8C**Bluet

ooth

For example, if you send preceding frame to Parani-SD, 00:0B:53:10:00:8A device will receive

‘Hello’ and the other devices will get ‘Bluetooth’ as below figure.

All Parani-SD should be connected to Parani-MSP.

38

As Serial Hub mode does not need TCP/IP network connectivity, users do not need to configure

network settings. Only power-supply needed.

4.6 RS232 mode

Multi-drop

If users set Parani-MSP to RS232 mode, Parani-MSP may act as 1:N multi-serial port by its

RS232 port. In RS232 mode, Parani-MSP will send data to external serial port, not via Ethernet

network.

In RS232 mode, Parani-MSP handles data in Multi-drop way, so data written to RS232 interface

of Parani-MSP will be delivered to all of connected Bluetooth devices. So, in RS232 mode,

“Polling” method- a master device schedules slave devices- is recommended to use.

Users may configure Serial settings in configuration console or Advance configuration dialog of

Parani-MSP software.

00:0B:53:10:00:8A

00:0B:53:10:00:8B

00:0B:53:10:00:8C

“Bluetooth”

“Hello”

39

Baudrate 1200 ~ 115200 bps

Character size 5,6,7,8 bit

Parity None, Odd, Even

Stop bit 1 bit, 2 bits

Flow Control None, XOn/Off, Hardware (CTS,RTS)

DTR/DSR not used

RI not used

Auto probe not supported

As default, RS232 interface of Parani-MSP is configured for configuration console. In order to

use RS232 interface for the data communication purpose, user needs to change the Console

switch to data mode. Changes will be effective after power-cycling of Parani-MSP. Please restart

Parani-MSP.

AT Commands

AT command is very familiar with the legacy serial application developers. So, AT command

interface of Parani-SD eases a lot of efforts to develop their own application from developers.

So does Parani-MSP. Moreover, AT commands of Parani-MSP are so similar to one of Parani-

5. Control Commands

Parani-MSP is configurable and controllable by Control commands through control TCP

port. Prom-MSP software is the GUI version of Control commands for easy use by customers.

As all of the control commands, in Parani-MSP software, are listed in the bottom window, it

gives users insight how each commands work.

Using control TCP port, users can make their own application control Parani-MSP by

themselves. This means users do not need to equip expensive Bluetooth development kit but

may develop Bluetooth solution to meet each needs by simple commands. Parani-MSP™ is

cost-effective and time-saving solution for users.

By using telnet program, users may use Control commands easily. Rich-featured telnet

software like “PuTTY” can be also useful.

Multi Serial Communication via RS232 interface

Parani-MSP can communicate with Parani-SDs up to 14 devices via RS232 interface, while

Parani-SD can be only used as 1:1 cable replacement.

Even though Parani-MSP supports multiple serial connections, because RS232 interface is

inherently 1:1 communication protocol, user should communicate with serial devices

sequentially. Data coming from non-selected Parani-SD is buffered on Parani-MSP and

retrieved when corresponding Parani-SD is selected by ATO command.

If link is lost with currently selected device, one of connected devices will be selected arbitrarily.

Accepting new incoming connection

When incoming connection is established in command mode, Parani-MSP responds with

CONNECT message and enters to online mode.

When incoming connection is established in online mode, CONNECT message is not printed

and selected device with which Parani-MSP communicates won’t be changed.

You can check out all connected devices by AT+BTCONN? command in command mode.

Disconnecting device

You can disconnect Bluetooth device by ATH command in command mode. With specified

device address, any connected device, selected or not, can be disconnected.
