Bluetooth Serial networks

PARANI-SD1000U can operate as a master in a Bluetooth network with up to 4 slaves, where the slaves can be other venders products, more PARANI-SD1000U units or serial (RS232) to Bluetooth units - PARANI-SD1000.


Two network options are available:
Multi-drop mode
One master communicates with four slaves simultaneously and bidirectional (master <---> slaves), which can replace wired Multi drop feature of RS422/485.

Node switching mode
One Master (M) always keeps connected to four slaves (S1,S2,S3,S4), but it communicates with only one slave at a time. User can switch among the slaves by using an AT command.
