I'm trying to connect a Lego Mindstorms NXT brick to my computer with
Bluetooth. Windows computers I've tested can see and connect to the brick
just fine, so it doesn't seem to be a problem with the brick or the Bluetooth
transmitter.
When I plug the transmitter in, a setup icon with the Bluetooth logo appears
on the panel. If I click it, there is an option to set up a new device. And
the computer can see the brickāit shows up in the list of devices. But when
I try to establish a connection (even with the PIN set to the correct 1234),
I am asked to enter a PIN on the brick. This is impossible; the brick has no
input methods for entering a PIN.
So, how can I get this thing to work with free software?
