Proof of Concept
Android
- We've created the Android native code (using Android Bluetooth API) to test the Bluetooth process between Android and medical devices.
- Settings for connection: For creating the UUID of the Android device, "00001101-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb" is used instead of conforming to the COD filter value on the A&D specs; but the service name and PIN on the specs have to be used.
- Issues in the test:
- For the blood pressure meter, pairing can be set but data transmission is unstable. The reason could be: the A&D medical device always forces to use RFCOMM port/channel 1 for the connection, but the Android device will choose the next available channel.
