CIPuyleart Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Now the question will be if anyone can deconstruct it to get it to work with the DIY box. I'm anxiously awaiting the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenOz Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Tough call. I've asked CE for the commands sent to and from the BT unit and phone. We'll see if they respond! Apart from that, I think the only way is to get a unit and back engineer it. Anyone else have any other ideas to get it going on a DIY box???

KernelPanic Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Shame it doesn't have a demo mode that simulates shots. I guess we'll have to wait until people start reviewing it to see what it can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elchupacabra Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Has anyone been able to get their DIY Bluetooth module to work with the Pro Chrono Digital Link app, yet? Just thought I'd try to perform CPR on this thread as I know a lot of us are anxious to get our BT modules talking to the app. Could it be a baud rate thing? I would think the Chrono would dictate that, but what do I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think the Chrono would dictate that, but what do I know. I haven't been able to do much with it since my last post. Checking the baud rate is an interesting idea. I guess you could experiment with different baud rates to get it to connect. Otherwise, someone with programming expertise will need to look at the handshake between the two to see where it falls apart. Maybe watching the handshake between the official Bluetooth module and the Android app would reveal something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenOz Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) elchupacabra, on quick inspection of the software and IMO it looks like the phone is waiting for some sort of command from the dlink to continue. If we knew this command(s) we maybe a step closer. Of course baud rate would also play a part. Edited September 19, 2015 by BenOz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt939 Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 (edited) Well, I nearly got crazy to have the blutooth & serial working. I bought a Hc-05, which can be both master & slave. I succesfuly have it answering AT commands (after lots of trial & errors) following this https://alselectro.wordpress.com/2014/10/18/bluetooth-module-hc-05how-to-pair-2-modulesat-command-walkthrough/ and this https://arduino-info.wikispaces.com/BlueTooth-HC05-HC06-Modules-How-To using an USb to ttll Btooth board is "KEYES BT_board_2.0" UNFORTUNATELY looks like this board can't be set to work at 1200 baud, can change succesfully down to 9600 but nothing less will be accepted.

I'm not sure what terminal software/connection you're using, but when I was configuring mine the AT commands typed into the terminal window were not echoed (i.e., you couldn't see what you typed in the terminal window). They also had to be in ALL CAPS and typed very quickly. So, I typed the commands out in a text editor then copied and pasted them into the terminal window. Having said that, from the Guide: To change the baud rate to 1200bps, type AT+BAUD1 [in the text editor] then cut and paste it into the terminal window. The terminal window will display OK1200 if the command was successful. If that doesn't work I would take a look at the USB-to-TTL module. As mentioned in a previous post, connecting to HC05/06 chipsets with anything but CP2102-based USB-TTL converters is sketchy. You might want to check out the reviews on the Virtuabotix BT2S page and their configuration guide for some additional info that could help.

I succeed to change baud rate, device name, changing from master to slave and such (the device was answering to AT commands), But could not decrease it below 9600 (I could set values above noproblem) I used tera term (for windows), everything went fine. Before I tried (unsuccesfully) Hyper terminal and others on both windows and mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could look into changing the baud rate on the ProChrono side, but at that point you may just want to save your time, spend the $6-9 and get a different manufacturer's BT module. Edit: What response do you get from the BT module when you issue the AT+BAUD1 command? Edited December 29, 2015 by M852 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can change the baud rate with AT+UART=9600,0,0 (setting baud at 9600 or else, setting stop bit & parity bid as you can see in the first example I linked above Edited December 29, 2015 by Matt939 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blkexp98 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Any new developments on this? I am thinking hard about converting over to bluetooth and a app for the phone would be much better than hauling my laptop around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamM Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 I wrote an app for iOS called "Chronograph Log" (iPhone, iPad). The app can communicate with the ProCronograph using their "Digital Link" (Bluetooth) unit to enter each shot directly into our app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilsport Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Hey guys First of all, thanks for a great easy project, haven't done any electronics since highschool ~25 years Any news on any homemade android app? I would love to try one out if there is anyone out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobdirt Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 I was able to get CE's Digital Link app to work with the HC-06 by changing the HC-06's name: "AT+NAMEDigital Link" After this, their Android App connects to the HC-06. Enjoy :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

euxx Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Great topic and lot of info here. Just wondering if anyone tried to make Bluetooth link for CED M2 Crono? The main unit has some kind of USB connector and there is a PC app for it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llevola Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 I get the App to initially find the HM-10 bluetooth module (after named "Digital Link") on both Android and iOS. But then after going forward to the Shots list, the bottom of the screen reads "Chronograph disconnected". Baud rate was successfully changed also. What am I missing?
