1. Introduction
1.1. Overview
Parani-SD is a terminal device for wireless serial communication using the Bluetooth technology that is
international standard of short range wireless communications. Parani-SD accomplishes more reliable
wireless communication. As Parani-SD can communicate with other Bluetooth devices, user may
construct various communications with it.
Parani-SD provides several models with different communication ranges from 30m (Parani-SD200) up
to 100m (Parani-SD100) for user’s various applications. In terms of noise, Parani-SD delivers better
quality of communication than standard RS232 cables.
Parani-SD has the most compact design of the same kind devices and can be placed conveniently into
any devices or equipments. Its detachable antenna of variety optimizes the quality and distance of
wireless communications.
Parani-SD can be configured and controlled by typical AT commands. User can easily configure
Parani-SD on the terminal program such as HyperTerminal and implements the wireless
communication without modifying user’s existing serial communication program. In addition to the
basic AT commands, Parani-SD provides some expanded AT commands for its various functions. User
friendly ParaniWIN is also provided for easy setup on Microsoft Windows. Also, user can setup the
serial port parameters by dipswitch without PC.
The FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) technique of Bluetooth lets Parani-SD have less
radio interference and no danger of hacking in air. Parani-SD also supports authentication and data
encryption.
