## **Overview**
## **The LM048 is the world’s smallest Bluetooth® serial adapter (RS232), providing a secure and reliable Bluetooth® v2.0, v2.1 connection.**
This wireless connection reaches a range of up to 100m in open space, replacing RS232 cables between a master (DTE) device and slave (DCE) devices such as printers, data loggers and digital signalling devices.
The LM048 patented firmware allows the serial configurations to be used. The firmware controls the RS232 signals, including DTR / DSR handshaking and RTS / CTS flow control lines. The LM048 is powered by USB - Mini USB, DB9 or AC adaptor and all settings and configurations are even retained when the adapter is powered down.
Our LM149 software is used to change the settings and configurations; including the auto connect function, discoverable / non-discoverable function, device name, baud rate, data bits and flow control. The AT Command set is used to change the configurations, plus the developer can also configure and modify the settings of a remote LM048 from a local LM048. Customised configurations and settings can be preloaded to the LM048, simplifying the manufacturing and testing process.
