Testing serial loopback over a bluetooth connection.

[Anonymous]

I am using the serial loopback plug over a serial bluetooth connection. Though it is basically working I get data corruption at least once every time I run the test.
Error receiving from COM port also occurrs from time to time.

How can I tell what exactly is going wrong? Is BurnInTest suited for such a connection or will the lag of the bluetooth connection (25 to 45 ms) lead to the above mentioned errors?

Below I pasted the log:

It might be a timeout error.

From the preferences window in BurnInTest you can adjust the send and receive timeouts and the port speed.

In general the slower the port speed, the longer the timeouts need to be.

Increase the default 3.5 seconds to 6 seconds and see if that has any effect.
