How can I communicate with the bluetooth in LabVIEW?

[Somil]

hi

i am using windows Vista as my OS. The bluetooth i am using is getting detected by the windows but when i try to communicate with it through LabVIEW, some sort of error message comes. I even tried the examples in the LabVIEW but no luck. Please help me out with this

Provide some details!

What sort of error message?  It must have had some words in it or perhaps even an error number.

Post your VI so we can see what you are doing.

Thanks for the reply

The error message that i am receiving is error 58 and error 59.

Actually, i have installed the Bluetooth drivers that came along with it. however LabVIEW uses the windows Drivers only. so do i need to uninstall the drivers first and let the OS install the bluetooth on its own?

Both of those errors discuss the network, either being down, or the network function is not supported.

It might be a good idea to uninstall the drivers and let LabVIEW use the Windows drivers.  I haven't used Bluetooth with LabVIEW, but I'm sure I've seen other message threads in the discussion forums discussing similar problems.  I would suggest searching on Bluetooth in the forums and reading some of those other threads.

Ok, so i should let windows install the thing on its own!!!

i Hope this method finally lets LabVIEW detect the Bluetooth
