Go to Post In 2001 instead of staring at the field at the game I turned around and watched the people watch the field. All I could see was a mass of people from all corners of the world, eyes lit up, gears turning in their heads. That, to me, is FIRST in action. - Jessica Boucher [more]

ok. i have been confused.

my controller is still sandwiched in the middle of my squarebot so i was unable to actually look at it and see the labels on anything. i was under the impression that you were referring to the i/o pins labelled rx and tx on the top side of the controller. connect your blue tooth module to them.

rx1 and rx2 on the back, (?), side of the controller are not serial ports. they are for connecting the vex radio receivers. they wouldn't know an rs232 protocol if it jumped up and bit them on the... well, you know. they expect six channels of pwm data which your bluetooth module will be unlikely to produce.

sorry for the confusion.

mea culpa.
