I'm trying to send a simple binary file to a paired bluetooth device, but having a lot of difficulty. I'm using 2012a, so the bluetooth support is available.
Following is a sample of my setup to ensure that I am paired with the device.
>> instrhwinfo('bluetooth')
ans =
RemoteNames: {6x1 cell}
RemoteIDs: {6x1 cell}
BluecoveVersion: 'BlueCove-2.1.1-SNAPSHOT'
JarFileVersion: 'Version 3.0.0'
>> ans.RemoteNames
ans =
'FRANK'
'WENDY-VAIO'
'FRANK-PC'
'DESALLAR-WS'
'HOMEPC'
'CHRIS-PC'
>> bt = Bluetooth('FRANK')
Bluetooth Object : Bluetooth-FRANK:0
Communication Settings
RemoteName: FRANK
RemoteID: 002243F270C7
Channel: 0
Terminator: 'LF'
Communication State
Status: closed
RecordStatus: off
Read/Write State
TransferStatus: idle
BytesAvailable: 0
ValuesReceived: 0
ValuesSent: 0
At this point I need to change the Communication state to open so I can use the fwrite command. This is where I have a problem.
I use the fopen command to establish the connection, but get the following error.
fopen(bt)
Error using icinterface/fopen (line 83)
Unsuccessful open: Cannot connect to the
device. Possible reasons are another
application is connected
or the device is not available.
Where do I go from here?
I've read that others have set up a COMM port, but I am of the understanding that this is not needed with 2012a. Is that right?
I know next to nothing about bluetooth connectivity and/or communication. So any information is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
