Putty and Bluetooth Module.

Hi,

I have recently bought this bluetooth module from ebay, and cannot seem to get it to send data to COM5 (Putty for Windows).
I have connected TX(Bluetooth) to RX(Arduino) and vice-versa, Gnd to Gnd and VCC to 5V.

I am using Serial.println. Is this the problem?

Thanks,
Jack

Have you paired it?

Sorry about the dupe. I thought I'd get an answer quicker.

With regards to pairing it, yes I have. I have done everything I should of done (Pair, get com port no., program, test). I'm wondering if it's either a faulty Bluetooth module, or that putty isn't the right software to be using.

You'd get a quicker forum time-out.

Imagine two people had answered the same question in different parts of the forum.
That would be a waste of time, wouldn't it?

Hello Jack,

Have you figured out the solution ?

I am facing the same problem and I can't figure it out. If you have, any help would be appreciated

Thank you !!
