Re: 650-Zoom Bluetooth to Microsoft Surface Pro #aa-650-zoom

Alex,
Thanks for your time and effort to comment on this item.
As you can see in the screen shot my AA-650 Zoom reports as an AA-55 Zoom in the ANTScope software. Is this an issue? You mentioned that the BLE does not need to create a virtual COM Port, so should the 650 Zoom not have to be paired with a Virtual COM Port in the laptop, just Paired with the laptop as a BLE device?
Looking in the Window¡¯s bluetooth devices screens the 650 Zoom shows up as a 650 Zoom but in the ANTScope2 software it shows up as an AA-55 Zoom. Does this indicate an issue in the Bluetooth configuration in the 650 Zoom maybe?

If there is anything I can check on this end that would be helpful please let me know and I¡¯ll do my best to check it out here on my end.

?Dear friends!

A couple of minutes of your attention. Important information.

Bluetooth, as a wireless connection protocol, has two branches:
- Bluetooth Classic (BC)
- Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)

Connection via the BC protocol creates a virtual serial port.
The BLE connection does not create virtual serial ports.

All RigExpert analyzers (except for AA-55 Zoom of the first revision) use Bluetooth modules with BLE protocol.

RigExpert analyzers with Bluetooth are designed to connect to mobile gadgets (Android and iOS).
Until recently, the Windows OS at the kernel level could not work with devices using the BLE protocol. This opportunity has recently appeared.
At the moment, our developers are working to ensure that analyzers with the BLE module can work natively with AntScope2.

Sincerely, Alex Antonov
