connecting eb500 from boe bot and matlab

1 view (last 30 days)
Hi
im trying to connect my (boe bot) eb500 bluetooth modul and my pc via matlab,but i have some problems.(i'm using an usb bluetooth dongle as serial com6 )
When i try to open my port (i set the default values to 9600 Baud, 8 Data Bits, 1 Stop Bit, No Parity, and No Flow Control and terminator from 'LF' to 'CR' because that are the deafualt values my boebot expects)
s=serial('com6')
fopne(s)
display(s)
Read/Write State
TransferStatus: idle
BytesAvailable: 0
ValuesReceived: 0
ValuesSent: 0
it says that no bytes are available and nothing is received.I get also an error when trying to write () or when trying to read (Warning: A timeout occurred before the Terminator was reached)
I noticed that when i connect to com6 the LED doesn't turn on but when i use hyperlink and connect to com6 the LED turns on.(so i'm assuming that matlab doesn't recognise my eb500 modul????)
I also tried tmtool but nothing heps ):
I'm using win7 64-bit and matlab 2010b 64-bit.
