Emulate Device: Serial Port

These steps describe how to use Profile Wizard to configure BTTrainer to emulate a device
that uses the Serial Port profile.

Note: To emulate a device that uses the Serial Port profile, you will need to install the virtual COM port driver

that is included with the BTTrainer installation. For instructions, see “Installing the Virtual COM Port
Driver” on page 39
.

Step 1

Complete Steps 1-4 in Section 4.3, “Emulating Devices” on page 32.

The Serial Port Emulation screen will open.

Step 2

Use an external application to send data to the remote device.

Note: A modem driver must be installed on the virtual COM port in order to use an

external application to send data through BTTrainer. See “Install a Modem
Driver on the Virtual COM Port” on page 40
to find out how to install the
driver. Once the driver is installed, you must configure the external
application to use that driver.

Open the application and send the data. It will use the modem driver on the
virtual COM port to send the data to the Serial Port device through
BTTrainer.

4.4 Restarting the Wizard

When working within Profile Wizard, a new session may be started at any time.

Click the Restart Wizard button on any screen.

• If BTTrainer is currently emulating a connected device, the connection will be broken,

and Profile Wizard will return to the default Profile Wizard screen.

• If BTTrainer is currently connected to a device, a dialog box will ask if the connection

should be terminated. Clicking the Yes button will cause the connection to be broken,
and Profile Wizard will return to the default Profile Wizard screen. Clicking the No but-
ton will cancel the Restart Wizard request.

4.5 Installing the Virtual COM Port Driver

To connect to a device that uses the Dial-Up Gateway, Fax Gateway, LAN, or Serial Port
profile, you will need to install the virtual COM port driver that is included with the
BTTrainer installation.
