Hey guys, just wanted to see if anyone else has been playing around with bluetooth and megasquirt. With the new Shadow dash MS coming out recently I wanted to give this a shot. I ended up buying a R232 to bluetooth adapter off ebay for about $13. Had to change the Baud rate for MS2 and then just plug it in and it works perfect with my android phone. Heres a screen shot of the phone
My bluetooth computer module is still on the way, but I will be trying to go completely wireless for tuning MS. Ill let you guys know how well that works out. This is deffinately a cool app for android devises.

Bluetooth adapter came in for the computer. It connects right up MS on bluetooth, now no more serial and USB adapter is needed. Probably has about a 20 ft range before the signal starts dropping off.

bringing this thread back from the grave, SilvrEclips how did you program this bluetooth adapter. I believe I bought the same adapter on ebay, but did not include any type of information.

I did get this working. These adapters are already set to 9600baud rate which is what MS1 operates at. So all I had to do was solder a jumper from vcc on the header to pin 9. BOOM we're BLUETOOTH SQUIRTIN

I believe it only supports android at the moment. You might be able to get it to display on a radio display but i have not seen anyone that has done it.
