Solution to Bluetooth Connection Issue ?

Post by Roland77 »

In my first attemps to pair my OSTC 3 I experienced the same problems pairing my unit (time outs, readying error etc.) Since I follow this routine I had no pairing issues anymore (Windows 7):

set OSTC to Bluetooth mode
open Bluetooth connection window within Windows
right-click on the OSTC if listed (if not add device)
check in services what com port is used (in my case it varies 3-5)
start Companion
choose your model in companion, check Preferences next to OSTC model what com port is used and set the com port shown in services
I ALWAYS hit Reconnect ..... OSTC turns to service mode the connection is established and working

If I hit Next I get those errors mentioned in numerous threats.
If I tried Reconnect after I have pressed the Next button it won't work. You have to restart the Companion.
The Reconnect option works perfect.


I tried this routine with my OSTC 3 with OSTC 3 Firmware and my OSTC 3 converted to an OSTC Sport (see an earlier post) and it worked flawless.

Hope this helps. Happy Diving

Hallo,

"Next" ist eine Option, die wir hier in der Produktion nutzen. Sie verbindet sich nämlich mit dem nächsten OSTC in der Liste.

Der normale Benutzter hat (leider ;-) nur einen OSTC. Dort verbindet man sich mit "Reconnect" und dem vorher eingestelltem COM-Port.

Gruß,
Matthias
