2. Getting Started This chapter describes how to set up the Parani-SD1000U. Following items are required to get started: - One PC with USB port. - Terminal emulation program running on the PC. 2.1. Panel Layout This section describes the panel layout of the Parani-SD1000U. Figure 2-1 The panel layout of Parani-SD1000U 2.2. Connecting the Hardware This section describes how to connect the Parani-SD1000U to the USB device. 2.2.1.
Figure 2-2 Connecting a Serial Device to Parani-SD1000U 2.2.2. USB Driver Installation Windows XP and later versions already include the USB driver. When Windows asks for the location of the USB driver, you can select the option to “install the software automatically” as shown in Figure 2-3. If the driver is not installed correctly for some reason, you can also install the driver after downloading the driver from http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm.
Figure 2-3 USB Driver Installation 2.2.3. Virtual Serial Port The user can use the Parani-SD1000U adapter connected as a virtual serial port after done to install the USB drivers. It is possible to check the available serial port at the Device Manager of the Panel as shown in Figure 2-4.
3. Configuration 3.1. Operation Modes In addition to the serial port configurations the Parani-SD1000U also requires some settings for Bluetooth. For getting the most out of Parani-SD1000U, user should understand the following Bluetooth connection schemes. A Bluetooth device can play a role as a master or slave. Master tries to connect itself to other Bluetooth devices, and slave is waiting to be connected from other Bluetooth devices.
3.2. LED Indicators Serial-Tx and Serial-Rx LED will flash accordingly when data is transmitted. For small data transmissions, it may be hard to recognize the quick flashing action of the LED. Table 3-2 The Parani-SD1000U LED Indicators Indicator Mode LED Mode 0 Green ┏━━━━━ Mode 1 Green (every 1 sec) ┏┓ Mode 2 Green (every 3 sec) ┏┰┓ Mode 3 Green (every 3 sec) ┏┰┰┓ Connected Connect LED Green (every 1 sec) ┏┓ 3.3. Serial Ports The applicable settings for serial ports are as follows.
When using hardware flow control, Parani-SD1000U disables RTS so that it stops receiving any further data from the host when the buffer becomes full. RTS will be re-enabled again to begin receiving data from the host when the buffer has created more room for more data. When hardware flow control is not being used, the Parani-SD1000U clears the buffer to secure room for the next data when the buffer becomes full. This can mean a loss of data may occur.
If you want to use them, to set these speeds, please configure the dipswitch to S/W Config setting and use ParaniWIN or AT commands. Please refer to ParaniWIN and Appendix A.3.4 (AT+UARTCONFIG, Baud rate,Paraty,Stopbit). 3.8. Pairing Button Parani-SD1000U provides Pairing Button for instant configuration without a PC to make an automatic connection between two Parani-SD1000Us. In this example we will refer to the two Parani-SD1000Us as SD1 and SD2. (Only single connection mode) Step 1.
Table 3-7 Pairing Process with other Bluetooth device by Pairing Button SD1 Status LED Other Bluetooth Device 1. Factory reset Mode0 Mode LED turns on 2. Push pairing button Mode3 Mode LED blinks 3 times every 3 seconds Status 3. Inquiry and connect to SD1 4. Connected Slave Connect LED every second blinks 4. Connected Master 3.9. Software and Utility This configuration software and utility for firmware update is included with the product, which also can be downloaded from http://www.sena.
Figure 3-3 Main Window Figure 3-4 Information Window Serial port settings can be changed by and of ParaniWIN in the menu bar at upper left corner of the window without re-running the ParaniWIN program.
Figure 3-5 Menu Bar at Upper Left corner of ParaniWIN When the ParaniWin software is able to access the Parani-SD1000U properly, the icons in the left side window come will become available for use. In device configuration window, hardware reset can be executed or operation mode. Security option also can be configured in this window. Figure 3-6 Device Setting Window Parani-SD1000U supports Authentication and Encryption. If you enable the Authentication option, you must also enter a Pin Code value.
Parani-SD1000U has 4 response messages, „OK‟, „ERROR‟, „CONNECT‟, and „DISCONNECT‟. In some cases, these responses can affect the host system unexpectedly. To prevent this, user can set the Command response to ON or OFF. For Parani-SD1000U, hardware flow control can be configured only by dip switch. And parity, stop bit can be configured only SW config mode. Thus H/W Flow Control option will not work in this case. When the dipswitch value isn‟t ATcommand mode, the Baud Rate menu will be disabled.
Figure 3-8 Signal Strength Test The signal strength test shows LInkQuality and RSSI values. The closer LinkQuality is to 255 and RSSI is to 0, this means the Parani-SD1000U has a good connection to the connected Bluetooth device. In general, the wireless connectivity is at its best within 10 meters. You can push the STOP button at anytime in order to terminate the signal strength test. The signal strength test will continue until the STOP button is pushed.
Figure 3-9 Connection (in) Window If the Connection Wizard icon is clicked, an easy to use pairing menu will appear: Figure 3-10 Connection Wizard Window In this example we will refer to the two Parani-SD1000Us as SD1 and SD2 respectively.
Step 1. Connect SD1 and then push the START button. Step 2. Disconnect SD1, connect SD2 and then push the Next button after setting up Slave configuration. At this time, the dip switch value should be ATcmd mode. The flow control setting can be changed only through dip switch. Step 3. Disconnect SD2, once again connect SD1 and then push the Finish button. The pairing configuration should be completed. Make sure that each Parani-SD1000U‟s connect LED is on.

Figure 3-12 HyperTerminal Attach Parani-SD1000U to usb port of host computer. Check Mode LED. (See 3.2) Make sure that the Connect LED is turned off and the Stanby LED is turned on before attempting to send any kind of AT commands to the Parani-SD1000U.
4. Multiple Connection Mode 4.1. Overview Parani-SD1000U supports multiple connections up to 4 slave units. There are two types of multiple connection modes: Multi-Drop Mode and Node Switching Mode. M S1 S4 S2 S3 Figure 4-1 Multi-Drop Mode In Multi-Drop Mode a master unit can connect to maximum 4 slave units at the same time and they transfer data bi-directionally as in Figure 4-1.
4.2. Configuration All the slaves should be in the status of waiting for connection either in Mode 2 or Mode 3 and the master unit tries to connect to the slave units. The master unit needs to be configured to work in a multiple connection mode using AT+MULTI,x command, which makes master reboots after execution.
4.3. AT Commands 4.3.1. AT+MULTI,n Select a multiple connection mode. Refer to Table 4-1 for descriptions. 4.3.2. AT+MLIST? It shows the current mode, the connection status and the BD addresses of slaves. at+mlist?

4.4. Notes When large data exchange occurs in Multi-drop mode without flow-control enabled, the master unit may experience data loss. It may also experience occasional disconnections and/or system rebooting especially when bi-directional communication happens. It is strongly recommended to perform extensive performance test before any real world field applications. The master unit would try to connect all slave units specified by S-register 46, 54, 55 and 56.
