Re: Help with bluetooth HC-05 module #bluetooth

 

Jos Stevens
1:45pm #23413

Yes connection was set to "Serial" and I tried 38400 and 115200 both in nanovna as well in NanoVNA-App.

In the device manager COM6 is set to 9600.

Also tried pressing the button on the HC05.

Led on HC05 is stays flashing quickly all the time.

"In the device manager COM6 is set to 9600."
Set it in the device manager: click on the given port and then on the 'Set Port' tab in the next window, here change the speed to what you set on the NanoVNA.

Re: DfuSe Demo: Upload vs Upgrade Confusion #newbie #flashing #programming

 

It appears you didn't read my instructions in the zip file.
You need to install the ORIGINAL DfuSeDemo software and only then, swap the DfuSeDemo.exe? file located in the bin folder? (C:\Program Files (x86)\STMicroelectronics\Software\DfuSe v3.0.6\Bin) with the one I modified.
You cannot run my modded exe by itself.

There was an attachment - see:

Why wouldn't you try a common speed for both ends?

Re: Help with bluetooth HC-05 module #bluetooth

 

I have the same problem !

I have let Windows 10 search for a? new Bluetooth device , it found the HC05,? I had to input code 1234 to let Windows connect to the HC05.

Then Windows reported "Coupled"? and in Window's device manager it showed up as "COM 6" (Bluetooth device RFcom (Protocol TDI).

i started NanoVNA-App , it showed C OM 6 but would NOT connect to it.

I tried both speeds.

Re: Help with bluetooth HC-05 module #bluetooth

 

Hello Anne,

Yes my Win10 OS does find the HC-05 as a Bluetooth device. If You need info to asign COM-ports to it just ask. The HC-05 is always discoverable. The button is to change from data mode to command mod for the HC-05. More info on this link:


73/Torbj?rn

PS. Gyula: I know, but I will see if it is disturbing up to VHF only. Putting the module inside is so far an experiment.

19 juli 2021 kl. 03:49 skrev Anne Ranch <anneranch2442@...>:

Does your OS "finds" the HC-05?
I gave wired mine to "Little wire" - just to power it up - no other connections.
The RED LED on HC-05 flashes and my Ubuntu OS finds the HC-05 and identifies it as such.
Bluetooth in general is little hard to work with - one never knows if it is setup as "discoverable".
If the LED does not flash - there is a button on (my ) HC-05 , maybe you can use it to wake it up.





Re: Help with bluetooth HC-05 module #bluetooth

 

Hi Torbj?rn,

I have a comment about the photo.
It is not recommended to insert the HC-05 (or any other type) into the device. On the other hand, the preferred solution is to plug the required connection points into a socket and plug the module into this socket when you want to use it. The proximity of the wifi module can cause interference in the NanoVNA and you will see erroneous measurements.
Just a suggestion, the decision is yours.

Re: Regarding calibration of a nano-vna #calibration

 

Roger, Jim - Thanks for the replies. The remotely operated coax switch at the antenna sounds like a great idea. Enjoyed seeing the attachments.

I have two experimental HF antennas where it is quite easy to bring the other end of the coax cable into the house. I did that recently to measure the cable loss over a 1-30 MHz frequency range.

This week I hope to do a calibration at the end of the transmission line on at least one of those antennas.

Last week I calibrated a 350 MHz indoor test antenna at the end of the coax and it made a big difference. When calibrating at the transmitter end and doing a wide frequency sweep, a lot of peaks and valleys would show up especially above the resonant frequency. The transmission line was a half wavelength at 24 MHz and there were half wave effects from frequencies that were multiples of 24 MHz. The same thing could occur with HF antennas with long feed lines. Increasing the length of a feed line lowers the frequency where it becomes a half wavelength.

It might be interesting to see the Smith Chart and SWR plot right at the
antenna terminals. I have two HF antennas with easy access to the ends of the
coax cables. A different set of calibration standards or adapters may be
required.

On several occasions I have done the calibration at the end of the transmission line where it connects to the antenna. It works very well but requires a lot of running back and forth between the antenna and the ham shack.

hence the switch box <grin>? - It's having an Ecal unit out there.

I'm doing exactly that. I have a RCS-8V switch box at the antenna end with a short and a load hooked up, so I can do a cal, remotely.


cables is the response of the cables, with the calibration at the VNA.? new and old refer to a pair of antennas.

newantenna.png is one of the antennas (new) with the "calibration at VNA"? blue trace is without moving the cal to the end, orange trace is with the cal at the end.

No I have not configured HC-05 for any speciffic speed, I have tried 38400, will try 115200 after reverting RX and TX again.

Help with bluetooth HC-05 module #bluetooth

 

Hello,
I have installed a HC-05 bluetooth module in my NanoVNA-H4 (board v4.2). Since connection pad P3 says UART_TX and UART_RX I connected the TX and RX from HC-05 that way. I can not get any connection, I tried to reverse RX and TX but that did not help, and should not. I am using Dislords FW version 1.0.64 and I set Connection to Serial and Serial Speed to 38400 (also tried other speeds with corresponding change for the COM-port). I have connected the HC-05 in my Win10 PC and initialized an outgoing COM-port (HC-05 SPP Dev). I set the speed for the COM-port to 38400. No function. I have also tried Windows original installation which gives two COM-ports, out and in, and used the out-port (also tried the other but that would be wrong). The HC-05 flashes red as it should. What happens in NanoVNA App is that it shows connected briefly then disconnected. Using Tera Term VT and setting the out com-port and serial speed 38400 gives a terminal window that does not accept any input, some letters are accepted but I can not type a complete console command (as I can with USB-cable connection), some letters are displayed as figures. I have tried to disable the FIFO-buffer for the COM-port, but that does not help. Now I have run out of ideas so any help would be gratefully received. I know that some of you have succeeded. I have followed the previous thread on the same subject to no avail.
