BT/USB/TCP Bridge Pro

OVERVIEW

Bluetooth/USB/TCP Bridge app enables communication between various kinds of communication applied sciences. Smartphone with this app put in acts as a converter device. It connects to remote gadgets which can not communicate instantly between each other, and it creates communication bridge between them, enabling them to trade data. Following types of connections are presently supported:

- Classic Bluetooth devices : devices similar to Bluetooth modules (HC-05, HC-06), different smartphone with Bluetooth terminal app, PC or any other device capable of opening Bluetooth port (serial port profile/SPP). App can also create listening port to which distant Bluetooth devices can join.

- BLE (Bluetooth low energy) / Bluetooth 4.0 devices : devices such as BLE Bluetooth modules(HM-10, MLT-BT05), good sensors (heart price monitors, thermostats...)

- USB devices : supported: CP210x, CDC, FTDI, PL2303 and CH34x chips

- TCP server : app can create listening TCP server socket to which you'll connect TCP shopper working on distant device

- TCP client : app can connect to listening TCP server

- UDP socket

Bluetooth/USB/TCP Bridge app can also show all received information in log in hexadecimal or textual content type. From v3.1 additionally it is possible to ship knowledge directly to related units from the app (0x or textual content form).

CONNECTIONS

Connecting to SPP devices - Click Connect/Listen and select device from the record of paired units. Make certain different device is listening for incoming connections. You can also initialise connection from remote device. In such case use long click on Connect/Listen button which creates listening SPP port.

Connecting to BLE gadgets (only as gadget A) - When BLE gadget is chosen, app starts scanning for nearby BLE units. Select your system within the listing of found units. Characteristics and providers are retrieved routinely. One attribute can be utilized for receiving and transmission (one Rx Tx characteristic), simply click on characteristic which you wish to use.

Connecting to USB devices - Your telephone must assist USB OTG perform. Some telephones detect multiple USB system, in that case you should strive which one is the proper one by altering parameter USB#. Following parameters are supported: Baud ratebps, data bits, parity, stop bits, move management. Flow management is implemented for CP2102, FTDI and CH34x chips.

Opening TCP Server - App can create listening TCP Server socket. You can hook up with it from remote system utilizing TCP Client. Make sure your firewall permits such connections. This version permits connection of 1 TCP client.

TCP Client - App has also TCP shopper, which might connect with listening TCP server. As traditional, you simply must specify server IP and port number. In case of connecting to PC ensure firewall is about up correctly.

Unsupported

Unfortunately, gadgets like headsets and Bluetooth audio system usually are not appropriate with this app, since they use totally different Bluetooth profile, neither SPP (serial port profile), nor BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy).
