Hi!

I've also posted this question at http://arduino.cc/forum/index.php/topic,106839.msg801657.html , and several other forums, yet with no answer!

I'm developing an audiovisual installation, that uses data from a soft circuit (Lilypad+accelerometers+bluetooth mate silver) to generate images and sounds on Processing. More info and codes: http://namainstrument.tumblr.com. This is really a major problem that can inviabilize the whole project if not solved.

My problem is that everytime the power supply connection of Lilypad (or even the bluetooth itself) fails for any reason, even for a very little time ("blinking" the power), bluetooth simply looses its connection to OSX (and consequentially, to Processing, or even Arduino's software serial port!).

So everytime this happens, I have to close Processing, click on System Preferences>Bluetooth>Edit Serials ( http://www.quando.art.br/transfer/screen-problem-bluetooth.png) and just them, after a while, OSX recognizes the signal, and I can re-open Processing and start communicating again!

Does anyone knows a workaround for this?

Is this occasioned by a misfunctioning of any of my devices, or perhaps a misconfiguration of them?

Is it possible to perhaps avoid this on Processing itself?

Thanks a lot!
