connecting bluetooth V3 with DF-usbssc 32 servo controller with arduino MEGA- DFRobot Forum

2014-05-05 01:49:29 hi,

The 1st pic is the connection of wire I used for bluetooth directly connect to arduino MEGA...And its work well.

for bluetooth V3 to arduino
3V3 -->3.3V
GND --> GND
TXD -->RX0

arduino to ssc32
TX0 --> RX
GND --> VL-
5V --> VL+

2nd pic is the connection of wire when I stack the bluetooth on SSC 32. Its not working

arduino and scc32

RX0 --> TX
TX0 --> RX
GND --> VL-
5V --> VL+

I hope you can help me...many thanks in advance nova

2014-05-04 19:42:16 Hello Nova,
How did you connect the module on the board?
Could you attach a picture about it?
Bluetooth is just like a Serial monitor, it will tell you what it received. Grey.CC

2014-05-03 00:57:24 thanks...I manage to control servo position using Bluetooth_v3 via smartphone (Arduino RC Apps) by using this connection:

Bluetooth_V3 (TXD) to arduino (RX0),
then arduino (TX0) to usb SSC 32 servo controller (RX).

but this is not what I really want. I want to stack the bluetooth_V3 on usb ssc32 servo controller and link to the arduino via serial connection but its not working. I'm using the same coding for both case . Here are my code:

void setup() { // initialize the digital pin as an output.
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println(" Lets test the bluetooth module");
Serial.println("Press 1 to light the LED, and 2 to turn it off");
Serial.println("Entry: ");
}
void loop() {
if (Serial.available()){
char input = Serial.read();
switch (input){
case '1': //turn led on
Serial.println("#0 P600 T1000"); //drill
Serial.println("it works on!!");
break;
case '2':
Serial.println("#0 P1500 T1000"); //drill
Serial.println("it works off!!");
break;
}
}
}

Its work well when Bluetooth_v3 directly connect to arduino. but nothing happen when I stack the bluetooth to the usb SSC32 servo controller. Help me...I hope someone can correct me. nova

Bluetooth is the wireless communication module.
It just like an Serial monitor, it will display everything what it received. You could think it is another Serial port.

And for the phone APP, it is very easy to get from the market like google play or apple store.

2014-04-30 16:07:39 I'm hoping that there are some tutorial link for coding the bluetooth V3 with DF-usbssc 32 servo controller. I've been googling, cant find a good one. can anybody share some tutorial. tenkiu...^_^

It will be good if there are some tutorial connecting the bluetooth with smartphone nova

2014-04-23 00:14:07 Hello Nova,

I test it with official UNO just now, it works. Considering it has been a long time ago

Maybe they change the resister. Anyway, it should work on you 32 servo controller board.

2014-04-22 20:27:19 Hello again..I have another two inquiries.
From this link [url=https://www.dfrobot.com/forum/index.php?topic=102.0]https://www.dfrobot.com/forum/index.php?topic=102.0[/url] . it said that bluetooth V3 is not compatible with arduino UNO.

1) Is it also means that bluetooth V3 is not compatible with arduino MEGA 2560?
2) Since i'm using DF-usbssc 32 servo controller and arduino MEGA 2560(for coding), i will not experience that issue rite?

I'm hoping that bluetooth V3 is compatible with arduino MEGA 2560 so that it is also can be used for my next projects. nova

2014-04-22 19:25:08 great..thanks ;D ;D nova

2014-04-21 18:56:30 Hello Nova,

Sorry for the late reply.

DF-usbssc 32 servo controller has a slot for the APC220 or Bluetooth V3.

You could plug it on the board directly. Grey.CC

2014-04-19 18:22:34 Hi, Im new here and I need help. can i simply connect this bluetooth v3 with my DF-usbssc32 servo controller or do I need extra things? can anybody teach me how to do it. Thanks in advance. ^_^ nova
