value. If you check Encryption option, the Parani-ESD encrypts packets and sends them. The Encryption options works well in case that only one between Master and Slave uses this option. Parani-ESD has 4 response messages, ‘OK’, ‘ERROR’, ‘CONNECT’, and ‘DISCONNECT’. In some cases, these responses can affect the host system unexpectedly.

Appendix B: AT Commands B.1. Terminology B.1.1. AT Command AT command set is the d e facto standard l anguage for controlling m odems . The AT command set was developed by H ayes and is recognized by virtually all p ersonal computer modems.
B.1.5. Symbols The symbols are used for the description of command syntax as follows: Symbols Meaning ASCII Code Carriage return 0x0D Line feed 0x0A Carriage return + Line feed Bluetooth device address N or m One digit decimal number Timeout in seconds B.2.
B.3. Command Description B.3.1. ATZ SD Response Purpose Software Reset Description This is the same effect as power off and on. This command disconnects Bluetooth device, and stops ongoing task. After rebooting, the status is decided by the preset operation mode. Some AT commands need ATZ to take effect.
Mode=MODE0/MODE1/MODE2/MODE3 Status=STANDBY/PENDING/CONNECT Auth=0/1 (Authentication is not activated when 0) Encrypt=0/1 (Encryption is not activated when 0) FlowControl=HWFC/NoFC Reference AT+BTNAME, AT+BTMODE, AT+BTSEC, ATS14? Example 000B530011FF,SENA,MODE0,PENDING,1,1,HWFC B.3.7. AT+BTINQ? SD Response 112233445566,FriendlyName,CoD 112233445566,FriendlyName,CoD 112233445566,FriendlyName,CoD Purpose Search Bluetooth devices nearby Description The Bluetooth devices in Inquiry scan mode nearby are displayed with their BD addresses, Device names, and Class of device.
B.3.9. AT+BTVER? SD Response SD100v1.0.0 Purpose Display device firmware version Description Display device firmware version Reference AT+BTINFO? B.3.10. AT+BTRSSI,n SD Response 0,255,0,0 (repeatedly) Purpose Test sensitivity Parameters n=0: Start sensitivity test n=1: Stop sensitivity test Description When Bluetooth connection is established, you can use this command in Stanby status. The sensitivity will be displayed repeatedly in order of Status, LinkQuality, Status, RSSI.
Description In ‘Connect’ status, data from host is transmitted to the other side Bluetooth device, and any AT command is not accepted but this command, which is not echoed on the screen. When Parani-ESD encounters a character ‘+’ from host, it stops the data transmission and waits for next 2 characters.
This has the same effect as AT+BTSCAN,3,0. When connection is made with other Bluetooth device, SD response will be ‘CONNECT’ with its BD address. Reference ATD, AT+BTINQ?, AT+BTCANCEL B.3.17. AT+BTSCAN,n,to SD Response CONNECT 112233445566 ERROR Purpose Wait for inquiry and connection from other Bluetooth devices for a given duration Parameters n=1: Allows Inquiry scan n=2: Allows Page scan...
ERROR Purpose Connect to the last connected Bluetooth device Description Parani-ESD saves the BD address of the Bluetooth device most recently connected. ATD can make connection to it without input its BD address. If it fails to make connection, SD response is ‘ERROR’. Reference AT+BTINQ?, AT+BTSCAN B.3.20.
B.3.23. AT+BTSD? SD Response 112233445566 Purpose Display the list of Bluetooth devices sharing the pin code Description Once a connection is made with pin code, Parani-ESD saves the Bluetooth device with its link key generated by pin code. The connection to a device listed in Parani-ESD can be made automatically without authentication process.
SD Response Purpose Change device name Parameters $string= New device name (Default=”PSDv3b-445566”) Description Parani-ESD can have a user friendly name to identify easily. The name allows 30 alpha- numeric characters maximum. Reference AT+BTINFO?, AT+BTINQ? Example AT+BTNAME=”My-Parani-ESD” B.3.28. AT+BTLPM,n SD Response Purpose Set low power mode Parameters...

Appendix C: S-Register S-registers contain 46 parameters of Parani-ESD. These are stored in flash memory and sustained the values unless hardware reset is executed. The value of S-register can be accessed and changed with ATS command by user. Some S-registers not shown below are set to maximize the performance of Parani-ESD.
C.5. S6: Enable Low Power Mode (default 0) S10=0, deactivate Low Power Mode. S10=1, activate Low Power Mode. This value decides whether SD works in Low Power Mode or not. When this value is 0, SD works only in active power mode. When SD works in Low Power mode, delay in transferring data may occur. C.6.
C.12. S24: Maximum Number of Inquiry Result (default 10) The maximum number of inquiry list can be controlled. This value is up to C.13. S28: Escape Sequence Character (default 43) The decimal number of the ASCII code of escape sequence character can be controlled. The initial value is 43, the ASCII code of ‘+’.
Appendix D: Trouble Shooting D.1 No Data Transmission D.1.1 COM Port Settings Check whether the Baud rate of Parani-ESD is same as that of its host equipment. If you don’t know the current Baud rate, initialize it to 9600 by resetting Check whether the Data bit is set to 8.
D.3 Transmission Delay D.3.1 RF Processing Delay It takes 30msec approximately for a Parani-ESD to complete the data transmission to the other side Bluetooth device. This time delay cannot be reduced and would be bigger as the RF transmission environment is bad. Do not use Parani-ESD If your applications cannot allow this time delay. D.3.2 RF Transmission Environment If there are lots of Bluetooth device working in a small area and/or the RF communication distance is too long and/or there are some obstacles affecting RF performance, Parani-ESD repeats the...
