This readme documents how to interface to the bluetooth device on bluez5.
|
|
|
|
Bluez5 is the default for 3.14 releases.
|
|
|
|
Bluez5 instructions
|
|
-------------------
|
|
1) Check that the bluetooth dameon is running.
|
|
|
|
$ ps aux | grep bluetoothd
|
|
|
|
2) If not, start the bluetooth daemon.
|
|
|
|
$ /usr/libexec/bluetooth/bluetoothd &
|
|
|
|
3) Check that the bluetooth interface is up.
|
|
|
|
$ hciconfig
|
|
|
|
4) If showing DOWN then enable it - two possible ways:
|
|
|
|
a) $ hciconfig hciN up
|
|
N is the device number assigned by the kernel; usually 0.
|
|
|
|
if this fails with "Can't init device hci0: Operation not possible due to RF-kill" do the next step.
|
|
|
|
b) $ rfkill list
|
|
Shows blocked try
|
|
$ rfkill unblock 0
|
|
or
|
|
$rfkill unblock 1
|
|
|
|
5) Manage bluetooth with bluetoothctl. This enters an interface. Type help to show commands.
|
|
|
|
$ bluetoothctl
|
|
<bluetooth> scan on
|
|
|
|
Copy MAC address
|
|
<bluetooth> scan off
|
|
<bluetooth> pair <mac address>
|
|
On bluetooth device accept pairing
|
|
<bluetooth> trust <mac address>
|
|
<bluetooth> connect <mac address>
|
|
<bluetooth> quit
|
|
|
|
6) Copy a file from the board to bluetooth device using the obex transfer.
|
|
|
|
Note: both obexd and obexctl need to be run from a terminal on the board
|
|
instead of from a remote login.
|
|
|
|
a) Start obex daemon
|
|
$ /usr/libexec/bluetooth/obexd
|
|
|
|
b) On a smart phone, install an obex app such as Bluetooth File Transfer.
|
|
|
|
c) Start obexctl. Type help to show commands.
|
|
$ obexctl
|
|
|
|
d) Start app on phone and use the connect function to connect to the board.
|
|
After connection is established, obexctl should display messages
|
|
saying that a new session has been established. The MAC address
|
|
of the phone should be displayed in brackets as the command prompt.
|
|
|
|
e) Send a file to phone from obexctl.
|
|
[<mac addr>]# send <file>
|
|
|
|
f) Once it's done, close the session.
|
|
[<mac addr]# disconnect
|
|
[<mac addr>]# quit
|
|

----------------------------------------

|
|
|
- For details, please reference https://community.freescale.com/docs/DOC-103385
|
|
|
|
- Note:
|
|
1) For systems that can automatically detect the alsa cards and starts the
|
|
pulseaudio daemon, all steps related to the 'pulse' user and starting
|
|
pulseaudio can be skipped.
|
|
2) To check if the system detected the alsa card or not, run the following command:
|
|
$ ps aux | grep pulse
|
|
|
|
If the output includes a process like '/usr/bin/pulseaudio --start',
|
|
the daemon has started.
|
|
3) After starting bluetoothd, make sure the bluetooth interface is up
|
|
before running bluetoothctl.
