Setup and Code the Remote Device

Step 1: Define the WF32 LEDs 5 and 6. Step 2: Code the LED Command Handler. TRISFCLR = 0x0001; //WF32 RF0 = OUTPUT - LED5 TRISGCLR = 0x0040; //WF32 RG6 = OUTPUT - LED6 if(CharInQueue()) //print received character This code is added to the main { function of the EDTP Embedded biteIn = recvchar(); Bluetooth Driver. switch(biteIn) { case 0x35: LATFINV = 0x0001; //LED5 break; case 0x36: LATGINV = 0x0040; //LED6 break; } }

Day 1 Topic Review

We Used BluetoothAdmin and Serial Objects to Spawn a Bare Bones Bluetooth Engine. We Used a Digilent WF32 to Create an Embedded Bluetooth-Capable Device. We Attached an AsyncStreams-Based Basic4Android Module to Our Simple Bluetooth Engine and Built a Useful Android App.
