I have recently bought a Blue Console 2 serial to bluetooth converter (www.blueconsole.com) which works very well with my PC and WinXP and hyperterminal. However, for the Palm they reccomend to use tridone.com's TriConnect. I have tried it and it works fine, except that it has very limited configurability. For instance, I can not suppress the LF generated after a CR, and thus it screws up the communication with my serial device. On the other hand, CS online seems a much more powerfull terminal emulator with lots of options and capabilities (beta version 2.2.4), though it can not communicate with the Blue Console, and I don't know why.

In CS Online I define "bluetooth" as port. Then as paired device I choose from the "nearby devices" the BlueConsole as displayed. Then I press ON, and comes a message "connecting" and a window is displayed asking: "Enter passkey for unkonw device:" I give the corresponding passkey (1234) and after a few seconds, the error message "error opening port (Serial: ( 0x030C))." I have seen that the message is the same whatever the passkey I use, so I assume it can not 'pair" with it.

Thanks for your help,
Peter

Certain devices have had issues with authentication we have been unable to reproduce in house. If you can use un-encrypted mode, try that. In the meantime we're looking into it.
