AT Commands

  • Format for inquiry: Add ? after At commands, for example, AT+CHK?, AT+STOP?
  • Format for setting: add parameter after AT commands, AT+BAUD1, AT+STOP1
  • All the settings will store in the module and keep same after restart

PIO0 (KEY) and PIO1 LED function

  • PIO0 key: clear pairing info when not connected, disconnect, restart and enter into search mode when it is connected.
  • RST button: Reset the module
  • PIO1 LED: blink when not connected, and stay high when connected.

Working Mode

There are three types of working mode, see our videos to understand how it work firstly:

  • Transmission mode: data can transfer via bluetooth remotely
  • GPIO set mode (w/transmission mode): BC04C external GPIO can set remotely, first set working mode to 1 (AT+TYPE1) and use AT+PIO command to set GPIO.
  • GPIO monitor mode (w/transmission mode): when external GPIO TTL status are changed, this info will send back, in a certain time frame, you need set AT+TYPE2, and AT+TPIO1000 for timing, 1000 means 1000 ms.

Demo code

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
SoftwareSerial BTSerial(2, 3); // RX | TX
void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);
  Serial.println("Enter AT commands:");
  BTSerial.begin(9600);  
}
void loop()
{

  if (BTSerial.available())
    Serial.write(BTSerial.read());
  if (Serial.available())
    BTSerial.write(Serial.read());
}

Note

  • Use SSOM32 for testing (Un-tick "send new" option), the module do not need any simulate end after commands (\r\n).
  • In arduino use first option on line ending
  • When connected with other bluetooth devices, module will enter into data transmission mode, not command mode
  • AT Command will not work on Data transmission mode (LED stay on)

First time usage and Control

  • On the first time use, if you want to control the GPIOs, you should not connect the module with devices with BlueSPP first, otherwise when you connect to it, the module is working on data transfer mode.
  • Disconnect any devices, and use a normal USB-TTL to setup working mode first, re-power the module and setup will be remembered inside, now you can connect and control.
