However I am interested on why you fail to open a connection. Hi Marco, thanks for the reply and your interest. So, first of all, how long is the time between you starting the open and getting the error back ? 30 seconds And when you attempt the connection, do you see the connection starting (look at the menu extra icon on the top right of the screen, does it change into a bluetooth B with the three dots acrioss ?). yes, it does also, it stays that way for another 30 seconds after the error message And last: is the "LinTech RS232 industrial adapter" something anybody (me) can buy (so I can repro the problem) ? yes: http://www.lintech.de/english/index.html my contact was Mrs Susanne Meinel: SAM@Lintech.de thanks, Sukandar ... thanks ... ...

The box I'm trying to talk to is the 'LinTech RS232 industrial adapter' (http://www.lintech.de/english/index.html). Doing this from a Win2000 terminal works fine. The device is created with the Bluetooth Serial Utility as /dev/cu.linout (resp. /dev/tty.linout) and shows up OK (e.g. in ZTerm or when talking to the IORegistry). However trying to open it gives me the above error message, no matter wether I try in ZTerm, Tcl/Tk or C (and I'm not aware of any application that might claim the device exclusively). System is OS X 10.2.5 any ideas?
