URGENT: Need Bluetooth Help

Archive
1

I’m at CoderFaire having a hack day. We’re building a demo that involves connecting Gadgeteer bluetooth to a MacBook Pro bluetooth and doing some other stuff that I’ll explain later. We have a couple more hours to get this working to be able to demo it to the rest of the crowd. I’m not having any luck getting them to pair up. Anyone out there with experience with BT that can help out would be greatly appreciated. My current source code is here:

ZombieDetector is the Gadgeteer client
ZombieAlertService is the PC master

We’re integrating this with a service from one of the vendors here and this is a good opportunity to give Gadgeteer a spotlight. So, any help is greatly appreciated!

THANKS!

@ ianlee74 - I cannot help directly, but I remembered seeing a post on BT issues. Does the answer from @ Brett in this post help?

@ ianlee74 - I read through the post and it seems that the issue is initiating Pairing too soon after the application has started.

In this case based on Brett’s solution, it seems Mitchel used a timer that fired 10 seconds after the ProgramStarted ran and he performed the pairing at that point.

HTH.
