Communicating with a HM-10 and a HC-06

Hello !

I'm currently on a project that consists in creating a remote for a jukebox-like station, and that jukebox is using an Arduino Leonardo with a HM-10 module, and I'm thinking about using a Arduino Nano and a HC-06 module. I plan on using buttons to replicate those that are already on the station.

I already have the HC-06 module, so I'm wondering if it's worth it to use it or if I need to use another HM-10 module instead.

First of all, I'm not sure if both can communicate together, I know that the HM-10 uses Bluetooth 4.0 and the HC-06 Bluetooth 2.0 only, but can the HM-10 be backwards compatible ? And I don't know if the fact the HC-06 can be only be slave, contrary to the HM-10, will make the communication between them harder or not.

It won't work. As you said, the HC-06 is a Bluetooth 2.0 module that uses the Serial Port Profile (SPP), whilst the HM-10 is a Bluetooth 4.0 module leveraging BLE and other profiles.

Thanks for the quick answer ! I'll get another HM-10 then :wink:
