Class BluetoothDevice
A Bluetooth NMEA device
Implements
Inherited Members
Namespace: NmeaParser
Assembly: NmeaParser.dll
Syntax
public class BluetoothDevice : NmeaDevice, IDisposableRemarks
To use the NMEA Parser against a bluetooth device in a Universal App,
ensure the bluetooth capability is enabled by opening package.appxmanifest in a text editor,
and add the following to the <Capabilities> section:
<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-schemas/appxpackage/how-to-specify-device-capabilities-for-bluetooth
Make sure your Bluetooth device is paired with your Windows Device.

Methods
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| CloseStreamAsync(Stream) | Closes the stream the NmeaDevice is working on top off. |
| Dispose(bool) | Releases unmanaged and - optionally - managed resources. |
| GetBluetoothSerialDevicesAsync() | Gets a list of bluetooth devices that supports serial communication |
| OpenStreamAsync() | Creates and opens the stream the NmeaDevice is working on top off. |
| ReadAsync(byte[], int, int, CancellationToken) | Performs a read operation of the stream |
| WriteAsync(byte[], int, int) | Writes to the device stream. Useful for transmitting RTCM corrections to the device Check the CanWrite property before calling this method. |
