Do you think you could put some instructions on how to set this up. i am using Windows XP, i have a bluetooth dongle connected and i have installed the libraries from darkgreenmedia, i have installed java wireless kit, and also the aventana jar file (but dont know where to put it).
I have a wiring board which has a bluetooth module connected. i want to be able to connect to this device and send data to it.
To use the MBluetooth with Processing and Windows XP you have to :
- You need WindowsXP with SP 2
- Register your bluetooth device for a free demo license of the Avetana Bluetooth Implementation
