Blue Terminal v0.99

The E

The ESD Terminal emulator program has been renamed to Blue Terminal to reflect the focus on Bluegiga bluetooth devices. Many minor changes have been implemented such as adding a new HID Profile toolbar, adding a SEND button to be able to send data in multiplex mode, imrpoved multiplex mode support - the commands are automatically sent with the MuxLink set to 0xff. Also, the terminal box has been changed to blue font on a white background to make printing easier.

ESD Terminal v0.97

The ESD Terminal program has been updated to v0.97 with some improvements. COM ports 10 to 20 are now supported - this was due to a bug from the Microsoft where COM9 can open a port but COM10 cannot. Also, the missing character after linefeeds has been restored and AutoDetect will now show the highest COM port which is more likely to be where a BlueGiga device will be assigned. Help has had a minor update.

LIS331DLH test board

ESD has just finished a project using the iPhone accelerometer - the LIS331DLH. Sparkfun sell a zillion accelerometers but not the one used in the iPhone. This device made by SGS-Thomson uses very low power (~0.25mA) and can measure 3 axes to 16bits. Also, it can be interfaced via I2C or SPI.
