No Data coming in.

[printrmd]

Hi

I had two  Widcomm 5.0.1.801 and BlueSoleil 10.0.417.0. Dongles on my computer.
I decided to remove the Widcomm Dongle. But now I have a problem- no data coming in. The connection is alright, but there are no triggers for wclClient_OnData. For example, when i'm using the VirtualPort demo and discovering my devices and choosing GPS reciever, creating a port, then connecting I get a "Connected" message but no data is coming in. This problem also happen in other demos when i'm using SPP communication. With the Widcomm Dongle it worked.

Best Regards.

Hi

As I could understand you use BlueSoleil driver on your computer now. If so try to reinstall driver (also make sure that there is only one dongle). Probably the drivers were mixed.

[Mike Petrichenko]

By the way, what OS do you use? Also do you use 32 or 64 bit WCL?

Hi

I have One  BlueSoleil Dongle and I order from than. I try to reinstall more then one.
If I using old BlueSoleil ver like 2.4. I can connect with BlueSoleil manager to my GPS reciever and get Data in the new ver not working.
did WCL API working on old BlueSoleil Ver.

Hi

I using XP  32Bit.

Ok, then: Can BlueSoleil connect to your GPS receiver and receive data itself: connect to your GPS from BlueSoleil manager and then try use created COM in Teminal?

P.S: WCL supports BlueSoleil 1.6 and above.

Hi

No no data coming in I can see the connection but no data. and with the old ver 2.X it working

[Mike Petrichenko]

So it does not work without WCL too? I mean when you use Hyper Terminal or something and BlueSoleil manager (without WCL) it does not work as well?

Hi

yes I using Franson GpsGate.

If I looking  on bluetooth serial port(COM7) Status i can see received data but where it is.

[Mike Petrichenko]

Well, then its something with BlueSoleil driver. Possible: vCOM numeration issue in Windows. You can try to uninstall BlueSoleil, remove all vCOMs from Registry and reset vCOM counter. It may help.

Hi

I will try but can you help me where i can find the vCOMs Registry and to reset the counter.

[Mike Petrichenko]

Unfortunately I do not remember registry keys for vCOMs but I am sure it can be found in internet.

[Mike Petrichenko]

To reset vCOM counter:

1. Uninstall BlueSoleil.
2. Delete all vCOMs (if your PC has not hardware COM ports you must have no COM ports in device manager)
3. Open RegEdit
4. Find this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\COM Name Arbiter
5. Set first byte of ComDB param to 00.

Hi Mike

Sorry took me a week to answer.
I don't know how others managing with BlueSoleil .
when installing BlueSoleil App is creates two Bluetooth Serial Port (COM3,COM4).
when I use the VirtualPort demo and try to create a com i get message from BlueSoleil manager create a COM
and get error message from my App this occur twice. The third time I get the create com.
but we cannot get data. if we check the COMS in the system we have two COM3 two COM4 and one COM5. I need to rename the double COMS but it must be on the correct order if not I need to do all over again.i need to check on the registry file that the com is OK. Now everything works.  "BUT"
If trying to create a com i get message Internal driver error i need to try Number of time to get the created COM.
then it working and get data.

Is there another way I don't believe that people are doing it.

Sorry about the long story

Hi

It is known BlueSoleil bug when it creates identical vCOM ports (vCOMs with identical numbers). Do the steps I posted early to remove all vCOMs from your system and reset vCOMs counter and then it will work correct.
