you need any program to change the speed in bluetooth

I personally used this one
You will also need to install this program to change the speed in your bluetooth module
you need speed in bluetoothe what you connect to MRE speed (baud rate) 38400

after you set the correct speed in your bluetooth
you will need to connect 4 wires from bluetooth to MRE
1.5v
2.GND
3.TX
4.RX

on the picture we see places marked where to solder bluetooth Communication TX RX
pad 1. HOLD=PB11=UART3 RX
pad 9. PB10=UART3 TX
sometimes on chinese bluetooth modules output rx tx inverted (if something doesn’t work try swapping RX TX)

if you use windows10
you need to find your bluetooth in the settings panel and connect to it

if you are a lucky person and did everything right
when you go to the tuner studio to the section communication you will see there name your bluetooth module

We actually have BT initialization code in rusEFI itself

CODE: SELECT ALL

#if EFI_BLUETOOTH_SETUP
// Usage: "bluetooth_hc06 <baud> <name> <pincode>"
// Example: "bluetooth_hc06 38400 rusefi 1234"
addConsoleActionSSS("bluetooth_hc05", bluetoothHC05);
addConsoleActionSSS("bluetooth_hc06", bluetoothHC06);
addConsoleActionSSS("bluetooth_spp", bluetoothSPP);
addConsoleAction("bluetooth_cancel", bluetoothCancel);
#endif /* EFI_BLUETOOTH_SETUP */


for end users that mean that if one uses rusEFI console, the following commands are available:

bluetooth_hc05
bluetooth_hc06
bluetooth_spp
bluetooth_cancel


I believe I had those working and that's how I got my HC initialized.

We need to make nicer TS button for same logic https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi/issues/1685

@abricosvw it says in the link they were done with r5.0 not r4.8
First question is what differences are there for soldering with my version

I don't see any change between R0.4.8 boards to R0.5 in this area (memory chip U11)


Second question what do I do with FT232RL Ftdi USB to Ttl Converter Series - USB
you need connect using jumper cable between bluetooth and TTL as in the picture below
