# Creating a Bluetooth device in a Windows Universal App
|
|
|
|
To use the NMEA Parser against a bluetooth device in a Windows Store or Windows Phone WinRT/Universal App, ensure the bluetooth capability is enabled by opening package.appxmanifest in a text editor, and add the following to the `<Capabilities>` section:
|
|
```xml
|
|
<DeviceCapability Name="bluetooth.rfcomm">
|
|
<Device Id="any">
|
|
<Function Type="name:serialPort" />
|
|
</Device>
|
|
</DeviceCapability>
|
|
```
|
|
See more here on bluetooth device capabilities in UWP Apps: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/schemas/appxpackage/how-to-specify-device-capabilities-for-bluetooth
|
|
|
|
Make sure your Bluetooth device is paired with your Windows Device.
|
|
|
|
```csharp
|
|
//Get list of devices
|
|
string serialDeviceType = RfcommDeviceService.GetDeviceSelector(RfcommServiceId.SerialPort);
|
|
var devices = await DeviceInformation.FindAllAsync(serialDeviceType);
|
|
//Select device by name (in this case TruePulse 360B Laser Range Finder)
|
|
var TruePulse360B = devices.Where(t => t.Name.StartsWith("TP360B-")).FirstOrDefault();
|
|
//Get service
|
|
RfcommDeviceService rfcommService = await RfcommDeviceService.FromIdAsync(TruePulse360B.Id);
|
|
if (rfcommService != null)
|
|
{
|
|
var rangeFinder = new NmeaParser.BluetoothDevice(rfcommService);
|
|
rangeFinder.MessageReceived += device_NmeaMessageReceived;
|
|
await rangeFinder.OpenAsync();
|
|
}
|
|
...
|
|
private void device_NmeaMessageReceived(object sender, NmeaParser.NmeaMessageReceivedEventArgs args)
|
|
{
|
|
// called when a message is received
|
|
}
|
|
```
