1.About BM2001 (Bluetooth USB Serial Adaptor)
Bluetooth USB Serial Adapter, BM2001 is a product that is developed, designed and
produced by Firmtech Co, ltd. (formerly BTnetworks Inc.). It is for replacement of standard
RS232 cable perfectly, with USB interface, so can be easily adopted for upcoming
industrial machines which do not have legacy RS232 interface.
Security of Bluetooth wireless communication is very strong because it use the
frequency hopping and 128bit encryption in 2.4Ghz frequency range.
Hardware setting is very easy and simple.
- The maintenance is very convenience.
- One pair of BM2001 will try to connect automatically whenever powered up.
It needs an installation of the USB device driver.
- Doesn’t need to install the application software.
You can choose various configuration with DIP Switch (In DIP-Switch mode)
- Set Baud Rate (1,200 bps ~ 115,200 bps)
- Set the Role as Master or Slave
- Select Mode: DIP-Switch Configuration mode or PC configuration mode
BM2001 does not required external power supply as it gets power from USB port.

Pin no. Description
Pin #1 and #2 N/A
Pin #3
For selection of Role (Master or Slave)
- To be master: Switch should be upward
- To be slave: Switch should be downward.
Pin #4
For selection of Configuration Mode
-To use DIP switch: s/w should be up.
-To use PC software: s/w should be down.
6.1.1 Selection of Role (Master / Slave)
In order to communicate between two BM2001, one should be a Master and another
should be a Slave. You may set the role with pin#3 of the function select switch.

6.1.2 Selection of Configuration Method
BM2001 provides two kinds of configuration methods. One way is using DIP switch on
the back side of BM2001, and the other way is via HyperTemrinal in PC.
Users may choose one as prefer.
1) By DIP Switch
You may set the baud rate and Role with only DIP Switch.
If you want to set them, BM2001’s mode must be a DIP Switch mode.
2) By PC software
You may set the various values with Hyperterminal of the windows. .
You can set every configuration values in PC configuration mode.
