Bluetooth connectivity on Mac not working

#1

Anyone know why bluetooth connection options don’t show up in mBlock on Mac? I can control via USB just fine, but when I click “connect” (next to file and edit) all I get are the heading for: Serial Port, 2.4 Serial, Network, and Firmware. In the demo video for connection options for mBot (http://learn.makeblock.cc/mbot-communication-options/) there is a bluetooth heading with a “Discover” option… I don’t have that. I have made sure I have re-installed the latest version of mBlock. Help!

Why my mBot cant connect with bluetooth?

it lives in Serial port on the Mac after you “pair” it in the system preferences. It won’t stay paired in the system preferences, that is ok. Just look for the device called /dev/tty.Makeblock-ELETSPP and click that, wait for the bluetooth pairing to occur (the blue led on the bluetooth board will go solid blue when connected)

I have to mBots setup so I get two entries. Yours might look slightly different.

Wow, thank you so much, that worked excellently!

I have connected to my mBot successfully, but when I try to upload my program the connection aways fail. Please help me with this, thanks

make sure the mblock program isn’t using the serial port when you try to use it in the arduino ide.
